Morgan's Session Pictures // Seattle, WA

When I knew I was going to be visiting Washington this last summer, I knew that meant I would be able to take my little brothers senior pictures! First off, I can NOT believe that my brother is old enough to be a senior! WHAT!! Now I feel old! I am really excited for his future and I think he can do anything as long as he puts his mind towards it! My brother is also especially good looking, no I am not bias, i've had MANY people tell me how good looking he is. He was blessed to have two good looking parents, plus I might add a beautiful family! Seriously everyone is just SUPER cute!

Anyway, take a look at these pictures of this stud! I think he is single, so ladies watch out! :D

Self Portait of the Photographer herself! // UVU Graduation

I graduated from collage back in April!!!!!!! Such an accomplishment for me! I am the first in my ENTIRE family to receive a degree outside of high school. It has been a long hard road, financing my entire education myself.

I remember when I first began applying for colleges my dad thought I was weird for wanting to have a Bachelors degree. You see my dad never completed school, in fact he went to one day of 8th grade and then quit.  One might think he probably isn't successful, but that would be incorrect. My dad is a very hard worker and developed his own company and now makes LOTS of money. So to him he believes that education isn't what gives you success but hard work. I on the other hand believe in hard work and education.

My college experience has molded me to a women that will be able to provide for her family and at the same time take of my family as a future home maker. Yup that is right I am going to use my education in the best way, to educated my children. BUT until that time comes I work fulltime at WellSteps and do photography on the side.

After my husband and I got married we were looking at our finances and we thought that we wouldn't be able to pay for my education. Of course I believe that my husbands education comes first so we knew that if we couldn't offered both of us, he would be the one to continue his university studies. After praying significantly over this and I truly had a desire to go to school the coming fall, after we were married. We had this feeling that we BOTH needed to be in school. That took great faith because financially we just couldn't do it! I signed up for classes and went to class the first few days of school not knowing how it would work out. Two days before the tuition deadline (14 days into the semester) we had a miracle, I found out that I had a scholarship and that all my school would be paid for and then some! I had a FULL RIDE!!!! I cried for so much, I felt to much gratitude for a Father in Heaven who cares, listens and wanted my desires to come true. I worked hard, kept my grads up and graduated Cum laude! I thank the Lord daily for his tender mercies!

Anyway, if you read what I just said thank you if not, well just enjoy the pictures then haha!
