Bergh Family

I was asked to do a photo shoot for a family in my home ward. This was my first family photo shoot ever. It finally decided to stop raining so we could schedule a shoot that worked for both of us. Here is a few of my favorites.

Ties and white shirts

If you or your son, husband, brothers, or best friend have any extra ties or white button down church/work shirts that do not fit anymore or simply do not want anymore, I WANT THEM FOR THESE BOYS!

I  am going to take them to Kenya with me and give them to the cute boys at Eternal Hope Childrens Home. (click there to see more info on the orphanage) Its on orphanage of about 35 boys and girls who share the same beliefs as I do and attend church every Sunday!

Stunners

I went on a trip to Utah. I took some glasses that my friend left at my house that I had yet to return. It might have been one of the best things ever. I fell in love with those babies. But now I have unfortunately given them back to the rightful owner. Here are some pictures of our adventure together. 

(might have been a fail on my part, but its hard holding a camera and putting a finger to your lips at the same time.)

Well we did a lot more things together then I got pictures of. I also love KeiLani M. Hatch a lot.

Grateful

One time in Young Women's (a church youth group) we had guest speaker. I remember said that she would 'fall in love' with different parts of her life and just want to stay in that moment for the rest of time. But fortunately, yet unfortunately at the same time, life would move on and she would find herself 'falling in love' with another stage of life and wishing it would stay in that moment for ever.
I had no idea what she was talking about. I was just a teenager hating high school and wishing to be older. Now that I am older (just a bit) I totally know what she is talking about. I have had many moments in my life that I just want it to FREEZE and stay like that forever or maybe just an extra hour or day or week just to soak everything up that is going on. But as we all know that is not the case and life just rushes on by.
Right now I am grateful for cameras. This might sound silly, but think about it! When we take a picture it is like to are freezing that moment in time. A moment we want to keep for ever will always be remembered.

Labor Day Weekend

Every Labor and Memorial day weekend we go camping. I love it. This year we went with our family and a new family in our ward.

I got a new tent for an early birthday gift. It is very nice. Perfect for Rispah and I.

For Christmas I got 3 colored lens. Above is the gray one and below is the pink one. I really need to use these more. I love the pink I feel like it throws some old school swag into the picture!

Taleah made herself a hut

Sunday night we went up to the swings and swung till it was dark out

 It was great to just sit around and hang out and not have to worry about anything. I love camping

Last year

this year

Tomorrow I am turning 21. WEIRD. I love being 20. I feel like it is the PERFECT age. I am not to young, and not to old. I do not have to totally be an 'adult'. In the past year I have made life time friends. Found the courage to quit my first job. Traveled a lot. Started Polynesia dancing. Made life time memories. Crossed off some of my bucket list items like getting my hair braided and getting stamps in my passport. Found out I have an addiction to Kenyan Fanta orange soda. haha Had my first 'boyfriend'. (story is in earlier post) Laughed a lot maybe to much for my own good. And I swear to you, I grew taller. I also became a braid master.  

This next year I have a few goals. First I am going to learn a few more songs on the Ukulele. Second pursue becoming a photographer for reals. Third get even more stamps in my passport.
