New York City

I can't even begin to describe how incredible my visit to the east coast has been! Every moment was unlike the other and presented with an experience that is truly unforgettable.

 

God is incredible and continues to show His glory throughout every aspect of my travels; I couldn't be more grateful for His presence in my life!

If there's anything I've learned this weekend it's to let God be in control of my life and to trust Him with every moment. Relying on your own understanding or your own actions will result in an experience nowhere near as rewarding or comforting as the one you'd have with God as your guide! Don't go about life thinking you have to do everything on your own because guess what you don't have to; once you allow God into your life He will show you unconditional love and take you on an adventure that will last for eternity!

This trip definitely wouldn’t have been nearly as successful without the amazing recommendations provided by all you lovely humans!! THANK YOU for the many recommendations prior to my adventure out to New York City! Seriously, I would NOT have even thought of exploring half of the destinations without your help or recommendations!

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to show your support in my work, consistently encouraging me with comments and messages, inspiring me on a daily basis and giving me purpose to continue pursuing my creativity!

Thank You especially to @kate.nicole14 for sharing this incredible drawing of a photo I shared on my Snapchat story while visiting NYC! The artwork in front is her work and the photo in the back was the photo shared on my Snapchat story. I'm truly amazed by all your support and talent!

This city has definitely found a place in my heart! I hope y’all enjoyed the NYC adventure as much as I had enjoyed the experience; It’s been a rather thrilling challenge to capture, edit and share images from a new and unique environment.

Finally, I just wanted to give a huge SHOUTOUT and THANKS to my buddy @ontiverosoutdoors for giving me a place to stay during my visit, showing me around NYC in the best possible way but most of all for being a huge encouragement in my walk with God! I'm thankful for his friendship and for making this whole trip a possibility! Without him and God's work in my life this while trip wouldn't have been nearly as amazing. God is truly SO GOOD!

New York City will forever be one THE most unforgettable adventures of my life!

This particular photo is quite possibly one of my favorites and stuck out to me the most from this trip. Why you ask? Because every time I look at it, I’m slightly surprised that it was a photo I had taken. It’s so outside my style in every possibly way and that excites me! One of my favorite aspects of visiting NYC and the East Coast was how often I found myself challenged as a creative; consistently reminding myself to think outside of the box and truly observe my entire surroundings. This experience really matured me creatively and I’m excited to see the impact it has made in the days to come.

Don’t be afraid to challenge your creativity and discover new styles and techniques that you aren’t entirely familiar with. No matter the situation or location, open your eyes to world around you and allow the uncertainty of change to inspire you. Work hard and never stop learning. Don’t let fear discourage your process but rather let it motivate you in achieving invaluable success in all aspects of your life. Better yet allow God to drive your inspiration and shape your creativity!
