Outwardly passionate,
inwardly prayerful.
Hi, I’m Mavis.
I created this little corner of the internet as a place to keep the things I don’t want to forget — photographs, thoughts, lessons, questions, and small moments from everyday life.
Photography is one of the ways I pay attention to the world. I love noticing ordinary things that can easily be overlooked: a quiet street, changing light, someone’s expression, or a fleeting moment that may never happen in quite the same way again.
I also love writing. Sometimes I write about psychology, faith and theology, books I’ve read, or ideas I’m still trying to understand. Other times, I simply write down a feeling or a thought that happened to visit me that day.
I don’t have all the answers, and I don’t want this website to pretend that I do. I see it more as a record of a life being lived, observed, questioned, and continually learned from.
Some things here may be carefully written essays. Others may simply be a photograph and a few sentences.
Both matter to me.
Welcome to my little space.
