all because i obeyed...

it really is true, obedience brings about great things. 
lets start from the beginning.




i graduated high school in may 2007, with the idea that i wanted to be an editor in chief of the new york times, or some other liberal newspaper. where i wanted to study, i wasn't exactly sure, but i thought i knew exactly what i wanted, and where i wanted to go in life.



since i had no idea where i wanted to study just yet, i was frustrated, scared, and nervous. 
always quick to a suggestion, my dad had the idea that i attend ibc for one year, just to tithe a year of my life to God, and get my thoughts straight and whatnot. in all honesty, i had no desire to attend ibc whatsoever, and i voiced my opinions openly. i didn't plan on becoming a missionary, or going into the ministry whatsoever. 











however, in obedience, i went. 

and my, what blessings have come as a result of it, blessings, blessings, and blessings galore.
not only blessings, but opportunities - im amazed. 

let's start.
pablo cortez.
he was a classmate in pentateuch, english, and life of christ. 
at first we weren't friends or whatever, and we never hung out.
but then we hung out a few times, and we started becoming friends. 

pablo is marcos witt's personal assistant. 
imagine the chances?
and then along came sir witt's world tour. 

chile, brazil, honduras, new york, chicago, los angeles,  houston, and AUSTIN. 

and when austin came, pablo needed a ride home, can  you imagine that?
so, who does he call? david. his new best buddy.

and along with david being a taxi, sure enough he brought his camera to be a photographer - for marcos witt.

and guess what, marcos witt loved the pictures. marcos witt. marcos witt. marcos witt. THE MARCOS WITT, the famous one. 

and after marcos liked the pictures, he asked me to take pictures of josue gonzalez, the pianist i recently took pictures of.

the way i took pictures then really helped me perfect that particular style, and now it is showing in my latest pictures of isaiah. my goal is to sell this idea to the school, and take their sports portraits; all of them - basketball, baseball, soccer, volleyball, and even possibly the cheerleaders. 

imagine that. 
all because i obeyed...
