For those of you who have been following me for awhile probably know by now that my SIL and I are pretty close. We have so much in common and share a lot of the same hobbies. We both love:
to crochet and knit
shopping
teaching our children at home
being wives
decor and design
cooking and eating lol
girl time
dancing
family events
...and the list goes on! We both are very supportive of one another and always encouraging each other’s endeavors.
However, we do get a little competitive sometimes. It’s all in good nature as we both have always been competitive, even before we knew each other. It’s rooted deep down in our veins. It’s the ingredient that makes us keep going and striving to be our best and never give up until we’ve done all we can to succeed.
My SIL has encouraged and been very supportive of my photography journey since the beginning. She’s watched me grow and develop my skills to become a more professional amateur. 😂
Photography has never really been her thang...or at least I’ve never seen a big interest. So imagine waking up to some nice photos in a text message.
I thought maybe someone had sent her these photos but to my surprise she had taken them with her iPhone 10.
She said,
Oh we decided to walk along the trail and I snapped these photos.

My response,
Stop taking my spotlight and keep your day job! 😠
I told her to stop trying to take my hobbies and stick to hers! Don’t worry we talk like this to each other all the time. Remember friendly competition. 😁
Here are the photos she sent me. She captured these on this really nice walk/bike trail by their new home:

I will say that it feels great knowing I inspired her. Oh and also that I taught her everything she knows. Yea wait, I can’t forget that if it wasn’t for me she wouldn’t have developed an appreciation for the art of photography - the beauty of an image. 😌😁🤣
Welp, I feel better now knowing the above. 💪🏽💁🏽♀️💅🏽
In conclusion, these beautiful photos were a product of my genius haha! 😜
No, but on a serious note I am very proud of my SIL for capturing some pretty nice cell phone photography. I am also glad she is becoming more aware of her surroundings when out and about and able to spot out captivating photo opportunities.
Thanks for letting me share my rant her photos with you all today ~
Next hobby, water painting. This is what she loves to do with her spare time. Heee heee heeee ha ha ha!! I’ll be the best yet! 👩🏽🎨
