Happy Thanksgiving, friends!! I hope you all have a truly wonderful day celebrating all of God’s goodness and faithfulness to each one of us. Hug your loved ones today and tell them how grateful you are for them. Let thankfulness be the theme of your heart! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m so thankful for each one of you! Thank you for following my work, investing in sessions with me and sending me sweet direct messages. You are what makes this business what it is! 🍁🦃🍂 
Last week I had the awesome opportunity to learn how to shoot film from the amazing @diimages and it was SO fun! While this image isn't film, I learned so much and have wetted my appetite for it. I can't wait to shoot more film in the future! So while I wait to see what my first film scans look like, you can enjoy this gorgeous expectant momma. She graciously endured the cold as a model so I could practice shooting film. @wanderlustinoursoles you are stunning! 
He's mine! I love him so much, even all his curiosity and orneriness. Which image is your favorite from this little, happy session? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Happy Monday! 
I love to tell every little girl with a dress on at sessions to twirl for me or at least swish her skirt back and forth. There is something that comes alive in little girls when they twirl! Who am I kidding? Big girls (aka mommas) like to twirl and feel pretty too! 
I hope this week you can create beautiful moments of connection with those you love! I know stress and anxiety is at an all time high, but now more than ever allow space for joy, beauty, laughter and connection! 
ADOPTION VICTORY! This is the third time I have had this momma her family in front of my camera, but the first time I could post any photos of her youngest child. You see she lost her first baby at birth due to birth defects beyond her control. Her and her husband decided to adopt a child to take back from the enemy the child that was stolen from them. This sweet boy has an incredible story of literally being taken from the hands of the enemy and placed in a Christian home. He was just officially adopted in October and that made these family photos so much sweeter! Janae has warred on behalf of her son in prayer, and I love the joy on her face in this image. Like I say all over my website, you have a legacy as a momma and it's worth preserving! This also just goes to show there is so much more behind photos posted here on social media. 
"The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defense of my life; whom shall I dread?... Though a host encamp against me, my heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, in spite of this, I shall be confident." Thank you to my friend @thisdarlingadventure for reminding me of this verse today. We have full confidence in these days in 2020 we are currently living in that God is FOR us! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Also which do you like better... the black and white or the color image??
