The Brewer's Rainy Day Session

November 12, 2016/ Cristy Cross

Last weekend we scheduled a session for Claire and Jared.  A down pour of rain came on us and we had to call it quits.

Currently, Clovis weather is in the 60s, and warm and sunny.  So we are going to do round two this afternoon.  I can't wait!

Enjoy your Saturday.

You were not made to be small. 🌟 Let me be honest. There are times where I will excel in something, but I quickly fade away because I think little of myself and lose confidence. This is an issue I’ve struggled with all my life. 🌟 But I am here to tell you, I was not made to be small and neither are you. We were made to be the best version of ourselves. 🌟 I do not need to shrink inside and think less of myself. 🌟 I don’t want to be braggadocios, but I HAVE accomplished great things in my life and I need to be proud and grow from those things. 🌟 And YOU have done amazing things too. Be proud of those accomplishments. 🌟 I don’t need to get overwhelmed and think “that was a one time thing or luck”, but rather “way to go girl, you are awesome. Go do more awesomeness.” 🌟 I am in the middle of listening to “Girl, Wash Your Face” on my runs and while I work and I just love it so much. It has inspired and encouraged me. And this chapter speaking on the lie of “you are small” has been perfect for my ears to hear. 🌟 I know there are tons of friends reading this book right now. What is your favorite chapter?

I’m pretty sure I hit the jackpot when I married Ben. 💰 Little did I know back when we were in our early 20s how much of a great family man he would be in addition to being a great husband. He chooses family ❤️ over his job and over his extracurricular activities.The boys and I are his life and he is ours. 👰🏻🤵🏻 Today we have been married for 16 years. That is just mind blowing to me. Not because we’ve struggled and I can’t believe we are still together (what couple hasn’t). But because it’s just crazy to think it’s been that long. He knows me better than anyone in the entire world, and I love that so much. I can barely write that without crying and getting choked up. 💙 I mean, we met when we were 19 and 20 years old. We’ve basically grown up together in a marriage. 🏆 Weekly, people tell me how great Ben is and how kind he is. I quickly agree and feel proud that he is my husband. 🎊 He may were crocs, but I still love him. And thankfully he still loves me even with my four-day-unwashed-hair. 💛🎉🤗
Have you ever reviewed the journey your life has taken? I love how my path in photography has turned out. When I went to #texastechuniversity and graduated with my photography degree, I hadn't planned on taking pictures of people. I wanted to photograph landscapes. I didn't think to much about being a portrait photographer. Honestly, the idea scared me. But then a really cool thing happened. God had a plan for me. Not my plan, but His. It took three years to prepare me for where I am today. (Little did I know I was on that journey at the time) Now here I am 15 years after I graduated college, photographing people-families, kids, babies, college and high school seniors, weddings, and commercial work. It has brought so much joy. I can't imagine not being a portrait photographer. The connections I have with the people I photograph is such a huge blessing. I am thankful for my story. I am still on a journey, and I am excited to look back in the next 5-10 years to see what God has planned for me. Share with me. Are you on a journey you are excited about?
