All Things Testify of Him; Beautiful Photography from 15 yr. old girl

We are THRILLED to tell you about Sally Hipwell, a 15 yr. old budding photographer.  This is what she writes:  "I am 15 years old. and have been seriously doing photography for about a year and a half now. I have a variety of unique temple photos as well as inspiring scences from nature.

Photography helps me see things from a new point of view and realize the details in the wonderful earth we have to live in. Through my experience in natural photography, I have learned that indeed, "all things testify of Him". From a tiny grasshopper to a majestically red berry, even the tiny details in our lives testify of our Savior, Jesus Christ."

Her goal is to bring light into her photos of 'The House of the Lord" because, as she says: "the Temple is a happy place where we come nearer to God and receive the light of Christ more fully in our lives".  She has started a small business at etsy.com and ebay.com to save for a Digital SLR camera to replace her point and shoot camera. She needs our help in 'getting the word out" and we ask for your support in that noble cause. Please 'share' this message on your blogs and/or 'like' it on Facebook.

Visit her etsy shop website for samples of her work and check out her cute hair flowers in the Young Women Value colors.  Thank you for your support!

Doesn't it just warm your heart that this young girl is developing her testimony and talents simultaneously. One is supporting the other in growth.

Thanks for the sweet comment you made on my blog today (about Hannah and my mom). I have felt a strong prompting to do this blog and it's been very interesting and thrilling to sit down and feel the words come from Heavenly Father as well as me. There is definitely a reason I'm supposed to do this...maybe I'll reach a special soul or maybe it's for my own growth. I don't know. But thank you for your kind words.

Now if I could just get more traffic, lol.
