The H. Family

I was invited to spend the day after Christmas photographing the H. family and upon arriving I fell in love with them immediately. Every one was so welcoming and honest. And truley the toughest part of being a photographer is probably getting people to relax enough to be themselves while you are there. I wanted to share some of the outtakes becaues they make me smile inside and out! This is what family is about...




Meet Miss A. She is the youngest member of the H. family and was such a sweetheart!

Catching up...

Some of you may already know this, but if not please know that we are okay, and doing just fine!!

Charles was rushed into the ER last week with stomach/chest pains. We were rushed back, and test after test was ran. After what seemed like hours of waiting we finally got to 1-get some answers and 2-met his surgical team. It seems that his gal bladder was the culprit and needed removing. I am glad and relieved to say that he is doing very well and with a bit more light duty he will make a full recovery. We often joke that our family really can ring in a new year in style! Well, it was Memorial Style this year! ; )

Thank you to everyone who sent prayers and phone calls. Thank you to the family and friends who stood by us during those long days. And special thanks to Heather and Michael who helped out with H. without hesitation. Thank you. I am humbled by all of the generosity and kindness.

Finally, if I have photos that belong to you (and I do have a couple of outstanding orders!! )please know that they are in the works!! I have not forgotten you!! They will be ready for delivery really really soon!
