Happy Thanksgiving!

The past 12 months have been tough for me, losing a lot and feeling like I really was on a roller coaster of emotions.

Life likes to throw fastballs, sometimes when we least want them. If you are a creative, diy, food loving, fit-life desiring person like me, you are probably on Pinterest. I've been looking through the quotes section a lot and there are so many fitting quotes. Both uplifting & a bit sad.

We can only go up from what may feel like rock bottom. 

So through all I have lost, I am thankful for the air in my lungs & the chance to photograph what I see.

 Pain makes us alive. If I wasn't here, breathing, I wouldn't have known how my great grandma loved to play scrabble, or make cinnamon rolls for the holidays. I wouldn't have been able to love her and have her in my life. May she rest in peace & know how much I miss her.

It's hard to be thankful after such a hard year but I really am so grateful for the friends, family and beauty around me. Life would be nothing without them.

I hope you all have a good thanksgiving and have much to be thankful for!

& here are some recent photos I am thankful to have captured, some of my favorites!

Updates

Any one else on Instagram? 

I love it, sharing photos as soon as I take them, see other photos from around the world, and seeing how everyone lives. 

I use it to share behind the scenes photos, locations, props and photos before I upload them to facebook. 

You can see such photos with this hashtag #jordanudhusphotography

I will also be starting to do some contests & specials on instagram so stay tuned!  

& now here are some recent photos I've taken from some fun little trips.

Enjoy!
