God has truly blessed me by giving me one of the most beautiful places in the world to call home, Western North Carolina. Over the past few years I have tried to capture it’s beauty in photographs and in words, which I think may be impossible. God has also given me many wonderful friends and family members who have been a great blessing in my life and I am so glad they have been there to share the journey with me. God is full of goodness and mercy. I look at these photographs and am reminded of that everyday.
