Kaela Ann Photography: Seattle

I finally did it. After months of studying, practicing, fundraising, photo-shooting as a fundraiser, and more studying, I went all the way across the country to Seattle, Washington. I went with the Bible Quiz Team from my church, and we met at Seattle Pacific University to compete with teams from churches across the country. To those of you who are not familiar with Bible Quizzing, it is a youth ministry where teams compete on biblical knowledge, using questions and memory verses to test knowledge. It is an fun way to incorporate competition and Bible memorization all in one, and the amount of Scripture stored in the minds and hearts of the youth has had life changing impact on kids and adults alike. If you are still confused, you can check out an article that was done on quizzing a few years ago, at the link below:

This is my sixth year being involved in quizzing, and my fifth year going to Bible Quiz Nationals. This year was so different from any other before it (and also the farthest away), and I loved every minute. Everything - flights, sight seeing, fellowship, and quizzing - went extremely well. I think that I am in love with the city of Seattle - it is just a beautiful place to be. And yes, my camera went with me. Everywhere we went during the past week, my camera went with me. I thought maybe you might like to see what we did throughout the week - especially if you did photo shoots as a part of my fundraiser for the trip. So here they are, and with them is a big "thank you" to all of the people who helped make the trip possible.
