Memory in the Shadows
By Jennifer Floyd

“I have seen the sun break through
to illuminate a small field
for a while, and gone my way
and forgotten it. But that was the
pearl of great price, the one field that had
treasure in it. I realise now
that I must give all that I have
to possess it. Life is not hurrying
on to a receding future, nor hankering after
an imagined past. It is the turning
aside like Moses to the miracle
of the lit bush, to a brightness
that seemed as transitory as your youth
once, but is the eternity that awaits you.”

Jennifer, her husband, and four children landed in Anoka, Minnesota after eight years of living in warm climates like Arizona and California. She loves photographing families (including her own) to see the eternal beauty of simple, everyday moments. When she isn't washing dishes, she is exploring creation, learning of our Creator, and creating art with her family alongside. You can find her on Instagram and Substack.
