Happy Birthday to You

"He will be the sure foundation for your times, a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge; the fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure."  Isaiah 33:6

I had the pleasure of photographing this family recently!  They were so much fun.  For the better part of an hour, I got to witness and capture the affection they share.  They are blessed in so many ways.  I have so much admiration for this couple and their growing family.  They are so wise and their foundation is so sure!  

Pretty in Pink (and white and red)

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. 

(Ephesians 4:32 NIV)

The picture below is of my "godson" and I like to think of myself as his "fairy godmother."  He is very dear to me...and I have vivid memories of him as a very tiny baby, curled up for a photo on top of a stack of fluffy white towels.  Now, he's a young lad with freckles and tousled hair.  He is still an affectionate one and I pray he stays that way.  It's been a joy to watch him grow over the years, as he became a big brother to a brother and then a sister.  It was an honor to photograph him and his whole family - three generations - a couple of weeks ago.  

Here are three generations...Mother, daughter, and granddaughter.  

See his freckles??  Those blue eyes?  That dimple?  What a prince.

I think Poppy might be his favorite.  They steal quick, quiet moments together.

A super-sweet daddy-daughter photo.
