Happy Easter!

The meaning of Easter is Jesus Christ's victory over death. His resurrection symbolizes the eternal life that is granted to all who believe in Him. I am glad to know God, and I am glad to know Christ as my Savior. Happy Easter to you!

How does the time pass?

My goodness, how does the time pass? As a teacher, I'm just thinking..."Come on, Spring Break!", as a parent, I'm thinking, "Wait! Slow down!", and as a photographer...well, haven't figured out that one yet...

But something has struck me recently. I am looking for ways to stay focused on what I started this business for...Capturing Creations. My goal, my mission statement...to capture His Creations on camera and somehow present a fraction of His beauty to the world. If He has given me this talent, why not use it to His glory? I knew what the name of my business would be first, and I looked to the bible to see what scripture justified what I felt my role is here. I came upon Psalm 9:1 “I will praise you, O Lord, with all my heart, I will tell of all your wonders.” That is exactly how I felt starting this business. I want to tell of all his Wonders! What are His Wonders? Everything and everyone and their relationships; all that is simple, and all that is complicated. Love and what it produces. Nature. O Lord, I do want to praise You, and I do want to tell of all your Wonders--I want to show the faces of those you have created and present them as Your wondrous works of art! Use me, O Lord!

Love, Julizza

Hello there!

Hello there! Brand new spot, can't wait to get it going! So many exciting things happening, don't know where to start! New website, great opportunities, and new photo toys, of course! The new site now has a shopping cart feature so ordering will be a breeze...cool or what?! I'm so excited!

On another note, my late father's birthday today, and tomorrow--the anniversary of his death. So in memory of him...love you and miss you daddy. All I hope is that I am and will become everything you wanted for me. Here you are holding my daughter in your loving Grandpa arms. She knows who you are--and has asked to see you from time to time. I wish I could keep her memories of you in her head forever, for you were great and your love for her was amazing. You were a rock and your loss shook my existence. Your teachings stay strong in me, however, and I have not dwindled to nothing--no, I did what you taught me--I pursued and became triumphant, just as you were. I never knew the strength of the thread you weaved through me and our family until you were gone. We miss you, and are convicted to be as one for your sake. I will see you again one day beyond the azure blue, and now I see your laughing face as I walk past you in the living room of the home you built...thank you.

These roses are for you... I love you.
