Thou wilt shew me the path of life:
in thy presence is fulness of joy;
at thy right hand there are pleasures
for evermore. Psalms 16:11

So few really understand the real reason to take pictures. It's because people are so important! God made them, more precious than the whole material universe!

I see a 6-year-old, like my nephew, having his birthday today...then age 10 before you can blink, then working hard in high school...and somehow that disappears and he is having all those 52 senior Sundays....and then finally the big day comes, and he commits to someplace to run or to cure cancer or whatever...and then one day finally at the end of it, there he is on the starting line of a 200 meter race.

To everyone else, he's a dot to be ignored, heat 8 out of 25 heats, a "please when will this just end, why do they even have all these people in this race?" kind of moment to so many other so-called 'professional' photographers like I've heard them whine and complain so often about.

But to me, I see.

I see the infinite value of that life, and that one beautiful tiny moment of that lovely life which intersects with my life through taking pictures.

And that's why, out of a million other reasons, that I love to take pictures for you!

You can never take a picture that you didn't take!

It means so much to me, to be a part of your lives, more than words can express.

People are so important! God made them, more precious than the whole material universe!

You are important to me!

If our paths cross, the beauty of it is indescribable and to be treasured, not to just be ignored.

I love God and like God I hope to love, with God's unconditional love working through me, every infinitely deep and meaningful life that intersects in one, or more than one, divine moment with mine.

  Sincerely,
  Joseph Myers

Love God

Proverbs 3:5John 14:1John 3:16

God, please help us to have faith no matter how small, and trust in you in our hearts. Help us believe in Jesus who died and paid for our sins so we can be forgiven if we ask you to forgive our sins in the name of Jesus. And thus enter our hearts and help us to grow in love for you.
