B.H. Livingood Photography, Hampstead, NC

I came to writing and photography through the pain of serving as a local pastor. Now, having left ministry and having been diagnosed as bipolar, and suffering with PTSD, and giving my damn-best-effort to stay sober, and doing everything else I know I can do to keep off the psychiatric ward, writing and photography help me feel anchored in real life. Art renews my faith in a loving God who created a good world.
