About

Hey there!

I was born and raised right along Lake Michigan. I grew up swimming in the bay, canoeing with my grandpa, biking, eating ice cream on hot summer days, and running barefoot around our red-gabled house. Small town life suits me well, but traveling suits me better. I love to explore new places, try new food, meet different people and capture the details with my camera.

I am an aspiring photographer, and love capturing detail and expression. Weddings and travel photography are my favorites. Come on over to my photography blog to see more!

I’m into…

Taking long walks on the beach
Pilates, Hot Yoga, Running and Swimming
Eating and cooking healthily, but saving room for dessert
Pinterest :)
Curling up with a steaming hot cup of coffee and my Bible to watch the sunrise
Reading books outside
Anything on the water! Swimming, sailing, kayaking, boating you name it!
Spending time with family+friends
Taking road trips

Hey Livvy!
I know, you were hoping for someone OTHER than a relative to post on here… but I just had to! I really like your blog! I like the name. :)
What are you going to post on? Favorite books/movies/music? :)
Autie

haha, I’ll be that non-relative to give my opinion. ;) looks great so far can’t wait to read more, and I definitely agree with Autie, the name is great. =)

Ani, you almost *are* family :)

haha, I should’ve guessed…especially after I help with chores…. lol

I love your new picture!

Thanks for dropping by my blog. Yours looks great. Keep up the good work.

If you go on that missions trip you may change your mind again on what you want to do with your life.

My wife and I are getting ready for full-time missions in Germany.

Hey, we have similar interests! I’m also a strong Creationist and I’ve become more interested in drama and filmmaking (especially when it comes to writing and costumes). The Purity Ring sounds like a great project! I wish we had groups like that where I live. Right now I’m a freshman in college (my Spring semester courses happen to be online, which is convenient, but the college is close by enough so I can still live at home anyway). I’m majoring in History and studying English, Geography and Drama. I also live on a mini-farm with my family and have a Lab-mix dog, chickens and a few cats!
I love salad, pasta, mushrooms, crusty bread and soups too! :) Haha!

Nice to meet you (I came across your blog from your comment on my Cross Eyed article).

Take care and MAY GOD BLESS,
~Amanda~

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I loved your post about Michigan summers (or lack thereof).

My sweetie just moved down to NC from MI, and he talks about his home state constantly. LOL! Although he loves the sunshine here at the beach.

*smiles*

It’s really fun to just play around, and I’m considering buying one of the purses for myself!
Have fun with your camera =)

Autie

I like it!! They have some amazingly cute fabrics~ But I don’t think I could spend 100+ on a purse! =O

Hi, Liv. I like your blog. I also like it that you have a good outlook in life, even when you’re still very young. Good luck and GOD bless! :D

I came here from Ishabelle’s site. She gave you and me and ten others the Sunshine Award. Very nice blog. I will go to DeviantArt and see some of your photos.

Wow, this is exciting, we have tons in common.
I can’t believe that you’re going to Mexico!!!
I’m going to Panama this coming August!!!

I enjoy your web site Liv. Nice Job!

Love Dad

Hi, my name is Doug Corley. My wife, Melody, and I lived in Chihuahua, Mexico for 23 years. I am also acquainted with Papa Lalo and Mama Rosita. I visited Lirio de Los Valles various times in 2008 and loved being out there with the children. Do you happen to have contact info to be able to keep up with the happenings and needs at Lirio de Los Valles? Our email is dmc@corleyz.com or you can look for Melody Corley on Facebook and invite her to be your friend so that we can communicate. Thanks & God bless you!

Hi, just found your (blog? I’m not super internet savvy) & like it a lot. We have a lot in common…& no, I’m not flirting : ) We both love Jesus, Creationism, world travel, photography, & ice cream (that’s how I found your (blog?). Will read more later.

But right now I’m wondering how you made the U.S. map with the shaded states you’ve traveled to? Can you let me know? I also love maps. Would consider making a nerdy map (blog?), but unsure how.

Thanks for sharing.

I’m glad you are enjoying it! =) I used a black and white map template, then imported it to photoshop and used the “fill” function to color in the states. It’s super easy.

Hi! i’m glad and happy that you are professing you’re faith in Christ Jesus !

I love your blog! Saw you on foodgawker and we’d love to feature you in our blogs of the day. Hope you can email me so I can tell you more about it. Thanks!
