Fun in Philadelphia

This past week I had the wonderful opportunity to go to the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with 149 wonderful people to serve the Lord. We were split up into teams of 10 students and 2 leaders, and I must say, I had the best team I could have ever asked for. I laughed a lot, and cried some too, and made many memories I will never forget. I am so, so beyond blessed to have gone on this trip, and I'm already missing my team. GO SABRECATZ!

The famous "LOVE" statue

Our view from the 25th floor of the dorms we were staying in - we got to worship God like this every single night! What a blessing!

My wonderful, perfect team. We grew to be like a family; laughing with each other, teasing each other, lifting up & encouraging each other, all while serving and worshipping together! I couldn't have asked for a better family to spend my week with. I love y'all!

Nicole's Senior Portraits

You remember my beautiful friend Nicole - well she's graduating in a couple of weeks, and we figured it was the perfect time to do her senior pictures! Aside from getting some great shots of her, we had a lot of fun!

What you see from these pictures is that Nicole is incredibly beautiful. But what you may not know is that she is lovely inside & out. She has the most incredible facial expressions & laugh, she loves God more than anything else, and she is the most incredible friend. Nicole, I'm going to miss you so much next year. I'll never forget all the memories we've made this year, along with all of our jokes ;] I love seeing a smile on your beautiful face. You are a true treasure & such a blessing in my life. Thanks for sharing your life with me.

I love you!

Fun with Melissa!

I adore this girl. She's crazy and fun and I can talk to her for hours. And oh, she's gorgeous to boot. I had some new studio lights to try out, and she was more than willing to put up with my antics and be my subject! The studio lights got boring (and blinding) after a while, so we went on a walk. Direct sunlight, let me tell you, is a pain. But we had a LOT of fun, and some good shots came of it! Enjoy!

And, of course, we had to be a LITTLE silly. So here's Melissa, exploring the palm forest.
