Ephesians 6:10-11

"A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand film against all strategies of the devil"

Ephesians 6:10-11

///

We all fight, some more than others and some more frequently than others. Some battles are incredibly strong while others are simpler tests of willpower. Often our battles are outstretched over a course of years and sometimes they last minutes. Although often our fights are similar they are never the same. Never forget that everyone is fighting a hard battle. Luckily, we have God on our side to stand firm in our faith. The devil often shows up as the things we feel/think that we want the most. "Lying is Satan's most effective warfare strategy. Doubt sets in when he can deceive us into believing a lie, or many lies. One doubt sets in, you quit desiring to obey God. That's really all Satan is after anyway...to get each of us to disobey God's will." [///]

Doubt can cloud our minds tremendously. Doubt over relationships, jobs, money, school - there are many things to feel doubts about which means there are many things to pray about. When we pray we put on God's armor to shield us from our doubts and find clarity and peace in Him. We always have God to fight for us and with us. 

Stand firm knowing, "Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning." Psalms 30:5

Jesse.

I am probably the luckiest person in the world. This summer I get to do hair for nonstop photoshoots and then I'm able to hang around and shoot behind the scenes and have fun. 

This shoot was a collab with Anna Peters (aka, the one in the striped dress in this post) and our model is  Jesse. Anna shoots primarily film so her photos won't be released for around 2 weeks but I'll be sure to post a link! These are a mix between pics I shot and ones Anna shot as digital test shots.

I take advantage of test shots obviously:

Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of our love. Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. 
 Ephesians 4:1-4
