the girl behind the lens.

she sees the good in the bad and beauty where others see junk.

she exercises for the sole purpose of eating chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream practically every night.

she has a past that she's not proud of, but a future she's certain of.

her mama is her best friend.

if spotting flowers in the most random of places were an olympic sport, she'd win the gold.

she wears hoodies in the summer and drinks iced coffee in the winter.

she loves Jesus with all her heart.
His love humbles, sustains, and comforts her.
He is her one true Love.

she secretly wants to be a female christian rapper.
she also dreams of opening her own coffee shop.

her heart has been through the ringer with guys.
she doesn't trust easily.
and she won't ever, ever settle.

sweet tea runs through her veins.

her life doesn't fit into society's definition of success.
and she's content with the path she's on because she follows Jesus, not worldly expectations.

she second-guesses herself quite often, but when she makes her mind up about something, heaven help us.

she can quote almost every line from transformers or one tree hill.

if drinking coffee and reading a book were a means to make a living, she'd be the CEO of the company.

she hyperventilates at the sight of anything to do with penguins.

her favorite place in the entire world is the pasture of her family's land.
it's in that acreage where she dreams big dreams, photographs nature, dances without inhibition, ponders life, and talks with Jesus.
she's a bonfire on a cool fall night, a blooming flower in the spring, a tall glass of lemonade on an oklahoma summer day.

she is fiercely dedicated to the troops and their selfless sacrifices.


she is amber.
the girl who is shy, but will give her honest, blunt opinion if asked.
the small town oklahoma girl.
the awkward yet awesome girl who thinks her jokes are way more hilarious than they actually are.
the girl who wants to make a difference and inspire others to see beauty in humble places.
