Create in me

A fridge magnet! 🥳

I so enjoyed creating this artwork earlier this year! There’s something so cool about putting Gods word in everyday places to remind us to look to Him ☀️

Such a great verse and reminder! ☀️

Where is your hope today?

A little artwork created for HEART! ( A homeschooling conference in the Waikato)

Full verse:

“He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.”
- Isaiah 40:29-31

I absolutely loved curating these illustrations and concepts for Harvest Journal! 🥳

The imagery of the wheat harvest beautifully bookends the inside cover of the journal, symbolising life before and after Christ.

The first illustration depicts a plain field of wheat, representing life before Jesus. But the second illustration (my personal favourite) shows a hand harvesting the wheat, bringing light and a bright future after the reassertion of Christ.

These illustrations capture the essence of the opening verse in Luke 10:2 - reminding us that the harvest is abundant, but the workers are few. We must share the hope we have in Christ with the world! 🌍

1 Peter 2:9-10 further reinforces this idea that we ARE a chosen, a holy nation, and God's special possession. We MUST declare the praises of Him who called us out of darkness and into His wonderful light. 🙌🏼 🌾✨

Verses:

“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.”
- 1 Peter 2:9-10 NIV

“He told them: ‘The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few. Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.’”
- Luke 10:2 CSB

Same stage, different perspective!

It's crazy how just changing perspective or some camera settings can give a completely different look and feel. I had a little go at experimenting with some of the black and white stage shots I took and seeing what came of it! 📸

I had such a BLAST taking photos at C*C EC23!

Thanks so much to Ruby, Josh, and Chris for helping out on the team! You were all amazing!

“I'm a child of God by grace, and grace alone” - ☀️⭐️🌻

Loved these lyrics so much I decided to make a design out of them!

Had such a blast shooting this stunning beach wedding in the rain ☀️ 🌊

Congrats Mr & Mrs Hayward 🤗

These lyrics by really resonated with me at the end of last year 💛

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”

— Romans 8:28

Was a lovely morning at 🙌🏼📸

Correction is a kindness 💛

From the Proverb of the day:

“So don’t bother correcting mockers; they will only hate you. But correct the wise, and they will love you.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭9‬:‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I find this verse so challenging. My first reaction to correction usually is to challenge what they have said, maybe in my heart or mind (or even out-loud)

As I want to walk in Gods way of wisdom, it is a good reminder to let go of pride and love correction 💛

Remember that correction is a kindness (yes, even if their tone didn’t seem nice)

It was a privilege to be taking photos on the team for Festival One this year!

Here are a few of my favorite snaps 💛

Some shots from Festival One this year 🥳
Was an honour to be able to capture some of it!

Graduation showcase 👩🏽‍🎓

Was great to come back and finish the last few papers of my degree this year! Officially a graphic design 💛🥳🎨

Thanks so much friends & family for all your encouragement and helping me to grow in these gifts ☀️

What a stunning daffodil! 🙌

I got the privilege to capture some photos of Graham Phillips's rare seedling at Clandon Daffodils 🌼🌸

Name: U97-10 Graham Phillips Seedling

Please note: Clandon Daffodils are not selling bulbs or flowers of this variety

Follow a bouquet tutorial with as part of the 2022 😌 (added a few extras 🐝)

I am very excited that we will be able to gather as one soon 💛

I have curated this poem reflecting on the hurt that has come from the division in this season, especially within the Christian community.

It does seem a bit risky talking about the elephant in the room. I hope and pray that this would draw you closer to Christ & His church. May forgiveness reign in all our hearts as we see Christs love for the church 😌



(disclaimer: not aiming to start a political debate about what was right, just processing & bringing light to this season from one side)

REFRESH — KOMBUCHA

A project I created on for an assignment at last year ☺️



This is a fresh new Kombucha that refreshes you outwardly and inwardly 💥



Everyone knows those people that add so much life to you.

Someone who lives life to the fullest and is refreshing to be around. The type of people who give you their full attention and enjoy all the little moments of life.

This beverage is designed to share with those types of people, where you can have a real conversation about life. Where they are refreshed both emotionally & physically by a refreshing conversation & the health benefits that come from kombucha.

(Concept Project)

Some photos I took at C*c Leaders over summer 🥳
Was a privilege to be part of it! ⭐️

I DON’T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS BUT JESUS CAN REDEEM ANY CRACKS IN YOUR LIFE AND MAKE IT SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL ✨

Something I’ve been learning recently is that “EVERYDAY I NEED CHRIST.” I think it’s one of the biggest lies I start to believe that “I don’t need God ‘that’ much today” and I hope that everyday I can come to Him just as desperately everyday— through both the good & bad times ⭐️

Anyway a bit fo a life update is that:

I’ll be taking a break from my degree this semester to go to a YWAM DTS (Discipleship training school— Basically bible school) for 5 months in Tauranga 🥳

Might be some random posts on here, but aiming to just be real intention with this time so would appreciate your prayers. Will be finishing my degree next year and doing some more graphic design stuff then! 😌

I created an Op Shop Guide for Hamilton for one of my first projects at Wintec School of Media Arts 👐🏼
