Fine Art Photography

Over the course of the last year, I have gotten a little into photography sort of as a side hobby. I don't really want to make a career as a photographer, but I thought that I might just put some of the best photos I've taken up for sale over time to give people a chance so support us creatively. Youth ministry is definitely my primary focus, especially since I am in full-time ministry, but I put up some photos just for fun and hopefully you'll enjoy them as the gallery grows!

What I enjoy about photography is documenting the glory of God found in nature, scenery and people. You'll find that all of my prints have corresponding theme verses, and Limited Edition prints even come with the verse on a metal plaque in the frame! I really enjoy relating my photos to Psalms, or other passages about the greatness of God. Some of my photos are taken with a verse in mind, and some verses are found after the fact.

One idea I have that I think would be a new twist on photography would be to photograph scenes from Psalm 23 and put them in a book. I find this much more challenging than just taking a lucky picture and calling it art. I want people to actually receive revelation related to the verse through the photograph, and remember the verse every time they see it.

Because it's all about Him!

So, if you like, take a look at my gallery!
