I am so thankful for community that supports and encourages me constantly.
I went with 30+ dear friends to a ranch in the country this weekend. We swam, shot guns, roasted marshmallows on an open fire, read and journaled, slept, played games, ran after cows and fished for fish we never caught. We did not have internet, cell phones or computers. It was a truly splendid weekend. This summer is one that I will never forget. I have learned to take time and rest, to replenish myself so that I can continue to run hard. It’s easy to burnout when you work 24/7 — especially when you want to change the world. But we all need to take time to enjoy life. Soak it up!

hi esther! i just stumbled across your blog while surfing the charity:water website. your shots are amazing. it looks like you have an amazing group of friends around you.
your passion for photography is inspiring. even though ive never been involved with them, ive heard of YWAM and know that they do amazing things for the Lord – its so cool you were involved with them when you were younger!
i just recently went on a mission trip to Korea with my local church in Davis, Ca. i think that trip was an important stepping stone toward my journey in humanitarian photography. i am slowly starting to post them on my blog fotophil.tumblr.com. any tips or pointers would be appreciated!
thanks for showing us the potential power that photography has in changing the world for the BETTER. keep it up please! :)
