First Of The Firsts~Family Session Edition~

So what do you do as an aspiring portraitist? Gift people sessions of course! That is what my dear sister received last year for her birthday. It helps that she has 2 sweet girls that are total hams for the camera, and absolutely used to Auntie pointing it at them.

Here are a few of the best...

Where You'll Find Me

Psalm 37:4 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

So I know what that verse actually means in context...that if I set my sight on the Lord and make him the center of my life he will bless me more in ways than I can imagine.What does that look like in real life? It looks like God giving me the talent to make beautiful memories through pictures. It is having the camera I need to take things to the next level. The love of a husband that tells me I am more than good at what I do and is lovingly pushing me forward.

So here I go! I was honored to have the opportunity to photograph a friend's daughters wedding last month. Sometimes you need to do the uncomfortable to realize what the thing you should be doing is. The day went smoothly; the bride was beautiful; the weather was perfectly overcast...but I didn't love it. I love babies and children and families. The spontaneous and goofy moments that can't be planned.
