Hi friends!!!
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a delightful Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Years…etc…

Just wanted to give a small update on all the things that have happen and or about to happen.
Since Thanksgiving its been non stop crazee!!

Brandon and I ended our 5 years with TheCall this past month. Saying goodbye to people we’ve been running with in prayer/fasting/bound4life/jhop. It was a bitter sweet time, But we are both so glad to be done.

We are getting ready for this next season, that looks very challenging and complicated. On Jan 11th we are officially moving out of our apartment and putting a lot of our stuff in storage here in KC. Brandon is moving in with his dad in Joplin, and I am moving in with some dear friends of ours here in KC. Brandon begins a full semester at Missouri Southern next week, and I will continue working Wed-Sat at Bridal Extraordinaire. Sat night or Sunday morning I will drive 2 hrs a way and go see Brandon for Sat night/Sunday night-Wed Morning. Then I will return and work for my 4 days/3 nights. My job is such an amazing job and i love what I do. Moving to Joplin and trying to find a job there will cut my pay more then half way. Brandon is going to be looking for a full time job, while he is in school full time.

This plan is going to continue until we can hardly handle it anymore. =) PLEASE pray for us, grace.

Brandon will finish his final year of college and come out with his Major in Spanish, a Certificate in Medical Interpreting, and a minor in Russian.

In other news, my brother Samuel has begun pursuing the girl of his dreams. My dearest friend Jessica Cortez. Its been so amazing to watch the Lord join these two hearts together. I love them both so much!

For Christmas, Brandon and I drove about 17 hrs to Vass, NC to spend Christmas with my parents and both sets of my Grandparents. We spent 10 days with my family. It was such a fantastic time and we were so sad leaving.

I’m going to post some favorite pictures from the last 2 months. I hope you enjoy.

Love and blessings…
Rivkah & Brandon

1st Picture here is a photo shoot I did w/ my dear friend Shelley Paulson. Our model is a friend- Joanna Reyburn.

Christmas Time!

Home for the Holidays

Our parents bought Brandon and I a Mac Book Pro for Christmas… My dad made us do a house hunt w/ clue finding our gift…
This is a picture of the moment we found out what it was…

Hi friends,

I wanted to take a couple min and just blog about this past month. It seems like time is getting faster and I’m getting older. *eesh*

Brandon and I have been staying busy w/ work and planning for the future. I’m still working at Bridal Extraordinaire. Surprisingly its starting to slow down a bit for the holidays. The day after Christmas all of Heaven will break loose. =D

Brandon is taking 2 online courses for college. And our plans to move to Joplin are coming up on us quickly. Brandon will leave mid Jan and I’m going to try to stay behind for Jan and most of Feb so that i can make more money over the Bridal business crazee months. =D

We’ve been praying and fasting for this upcoming election. Praying that God would raise up the righteous and tear down the wicked. Also the Lord is giving me fresh passion for the ending of abortion.  Today was the opening day of the Supreme Court and bound4life stood on the wall (The Supreme Court) praying that God would drive the abortion issue like a wedge into these elections. History belongs to the intercessor. And we are fasting and praying for this. TheCall San Diego is Nov 1st. Brandon will be flying out for 2 days to work and be a part of this day. I have to work. =( But my heart is completely in it. Please VOTE for LIFE friends. We can shift this thing through our prayers and our votes.

In other news..I’ve been studying photography and trying to shoot as much as i can. I’m learning quickly. I’m praying for a new camera. I really want a 5D Canon. And I’m praying for a Mac Book Pro for my editing and such. I feel like I’ve learned SO much in 2 months. Seeing things in a different perspective.

I wanted to post a few of my fav pictures from Sep.

This 1st one is from a day at Loose park. Brandon and I were walking and I saw this old man painting. It totally made my day. I was excited!

This next one is from a wedding I got to 2nd shoot w/ a friend (www.visionairestudios.com) I fell in love w/ this girls shoes. I was a little obsessed. =D

So i walked into this hotel kinda randomly and I saw this over the bar. I snapped a picture, and then the lady got mad at me. Cause i needed a permit to take pictures. oh well… I still love it.

Another one from the wedding I shot w/ my friend. =D

I took my dear friends Ferrill and Sharon out for a shoot. They moved here to KC from Ft. Mill. A part of TheCall. I those these two.

And one last one of my dear new friends Colleen and Josh.

oh and i miss my friend in Redding tonight. =( Jessica Cortez

So long friends.

Hi friends,

Recently we had a chance to do a photoshoot with a friend of mine that I met like 3 months ago. She had been a part of IHOP for a bit, and then moved back up to MN. We met through facebook, and mutual friends. I got to shoot along side of her at TheCall and she’s been taking time to teach me a lot about photography. I am amazed at how much I’ve learned, and what I’ve been trained to see in pictures through the time I’ve gotten to spend IMing and talking to her.

When we went on our photoshoot, we decided to dress up like we had for our wedding. I put my amazing Melissa Sweet wedding dress on that the Lord gave me, and Brandon rented a tux from the store I work at.I also didn’t wear a veil at my true wedding, so I borrowed a few from the store I work at as well as some earrings and such. I got my dress steamed, got Brandon’s tux and we went to Lee’s Summit where I had found some really cool places to take pictures.

The evening was beyond perfect. The sky was incredibly blue and the flowers against the sky were just amazing. Shelley captured our love for one another so beautifully. I cried. How we are ever going to be able to decide what to print is beyond me. I’m so excited. To see our slide show of the evening click here..

For those of you who may be looking for a photographer. I highly recommend Shelley. She is amazing.

Thank you Shelley!!

Last Sunday I took some friends of mine on a photoshoot. They were great.. I’m learning so much about lighting… Here are a few favorites..

This is going to need some more modification, but it’s a good start. This is pretty cool–it seamlessly integrates with Beka’s Flickr account, even comments!

I’d really like to keep refining the application of this to our blog, but I have put off for too long the reading I have to finish so that I can take my history test today (which is due by 8pm tonight!)

Later.

Brandon

So….today my husband took me over to Westport, KC where I snapped some sweet pictures and we sweated our butts off. =D

I’m now starting to take my photography seriously… I hope to one day be a professional and the only way to get there is to practice. So today.. was practice. I’ve been learning how to process my raw images…

I also posted a few pictures from my July 4th weekend. My brother and I had a great week together taking pictures and being our crazee selves. i miss him. =*(  We stopped at an old, run-down silo on our way to Joplin July 4th weekend. I’ve always wanted to stop there.

My husband also surprised me last weekend by taking me to a Feist concert at the Starlight Theater here in KC. Leslie Feist is my favorite. The concert was amazing. I took a few pictures… they turned out okay…

Here is a little bit of our night..

Next weekend I should post some new stuff as well…

I’ll also be going to DC here in a few weeks for TheCall on the Mall. 8.16.08.

I update my flickr page often. check it out—> www.flickr.com/tirzahphotography

Love to all…
