Scott is another friend that I spent A LOT of time with over 20 years ago!!

He is married to the sweetest girl – Terri!

She wanted some updated photos of her oldest!!

And the little brother – WHO IS ADORABLE!!!

Aren’t they BEAUTIFUL!?

Terri had breast cancer – last year – I think. She is a fighter. The things she shares about Jesus are absolutely beautiful. She is beautiful. This whole family is beautiful.

Terri’s cancer is back. Pray with us.

THANK YOU for asking me to capture a little bit of your beautiful family!!!

Meghan messaged me about having her family photos taken – BUT – she is fostering so there are rules about showing the faces of the kids you foster online.

This was the PERFECT chance to use some shadows!!

THE BEST!!

Meghan and her son – who is TALLER than her and is STILL growing!!

THE BEST!!

After I gave Meghan her photos she messaged me and said – I’m gonna be honest with you. I am an extremely difficult person to please. So when I tell you that I LOVE these pictures I want you to fully understand what a high compliment that is. I like art to tell a story so the fact that you were able to capture the story in these pictures means even more to me. I knew you wouldn’t disappoint. One of the reasons I love your work so much is because I always feel like it tells a story.

THIS IS WHY I DO WHAT I DO!!!

I love when people connect with the photos they see. When the photos they see – of complete strangers – give them the feelings. It’s why I want you to hire me. To give you emotional photography. Not because I’m a “good photographer” but because you know that I will give you photos that bring out the emotion from that moment.

THANK YOU MEGHAN!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I hope to see you again!!

I’ve been taking photos of Sierra and her family for OVER 7 years!!!

We met through MOPS and PLAYGROUP at the YMCA but also knew lots of different mutual people through lots of different connections.

I spoke about my friendship with Missy and Sierra wanted in on something like that.

We both made an effort to connect with each other and get together.

And if you’ve followed me on social media at all – you now know that Sierra and her family are part of our people.

TRYING to be serious is HARD!

She might be one of my FAVORITE people to photograph!!

I LOVE THAT SHOT!!

Jose & Sierra – THANK YOU for your friendship. THANK YOU for asking me to photography your lives!!!

I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!
