Welcome to my page, Still Life Outdoors. My name is Connie Minnell, and I’m glad you are here!
ABOUT me...After trading my career as a professional educator in search of all things healthy and low-stress, I now enjoy being a full-time amateur! I’m an amateur at vlogging, writing and photography. I’ve also dabbled in camping, gardening, and small-project construction. Proof we never have to stop learning!
But like many of you, I also love spending quality time with friends and family, including my husband of over 40 years, (where did the time go) my children and grandchildren. I love spending time in nature and time in the Word as a follower of Jesus Christ. All throughout my life Ive enjoyed photographing the beauty around us. Now I’m using those photos to reflect back on living life to the fullest.
I know there are days when everything’s coming up roses, then days we’re falling apart at the seams. It’s all still life, right? But we know how to brave the storms and still come out smelling like a rose. Ok, maybe that’s much…in reality we come out a little wrinkled, a bit thicker around the middle and a lot more tired, but still…full of hope! We keep looking up, and lift our eyes to the hills and the heavens.
So I’d love it if you joined me in my search to find out how to make the most of this life God has blessed us with.
Thanks and have a great day!
Connie Minnell,
Professional amateur 😉
