ELIZABETH & CHRIS – ALMOST A YEAR

Filed under: just because,love,portraits — admin at 11:03 am on Tuesday, May 3, 2011

I photographed Elizabeth & Chris at their wedding last June! They had booked with me at the ARNOT MALL BRIDAL EXPO in 2010 and received 2 gift certificates!

We had a session scheduled a few months ago and had to reschedule due to rain – surprise! This session was scheduled when the weather was calling for severe thunderstorms – so we made it a few hours earlier and missed the storm!

I LOVE that one!!

Thanks so much for making the trip to Mansfield guys! Can’t wait to see you for our next session!!

APRIL WINNERS & MAY CONTEST

Filed under: contest,just because,spring — admin at 3:34 pm on Monday, May 2, 2011

I told you about this family at the end of March –

In October of 2009 I photographed Carl & Pam’s wedding – a BEAUTIFUL wedding with an amazing couple! In October of 2010 they were blessed with a baby girl – Piper! At almost a month old – Piper was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. She is doing remarkably well and has a wonderful support system! On May 21st – Pam and Carl will be participating in a CF walk with Piper’s Posse! You can read more about Piper’s story – here!

I would love to be there for Pam & Carl and their sweet baby girl – but since I cannot – I will be donating 10% of my revenue for the month of April to Piper’s Posse!

PLEASE click on the link above and give what you can to help find a cure! I also encourage you to check out Confessions of a CF Husband. When Pam first asked me to pray for Piper and her tests – I directed her to this website – which helped me understand CF. I don’t know how I came upon his blog – but have been following their story since their little girl was born!

THANKS TO MY APRIL CLIENTS – I was able to give $161 to Piper’s Posse!!!
