a few months ago, i had the opportunity to be in on this proposal and had to share. i was doing a family session for his family and in the middle of it, he dropped to his knee and surprised her with the ring. seriously the sweetest thing i've seen in some time. here's wishing them all the best.</div>

the two of us think we're pretty hysterical. although our husbands are usually rolling their eyes at us. i'm lucky to have found her and even more lucky that she trusted me to take some photos of her

the date was set. we were ready to take some photos. and then the rains came again. so we both sat in our cars, hoping the storm would pass quickly. i was saying my prayers, and i'm sure this sweet mom was saying lots of prayers after going through the trouble of getting her kids ready for a photo session...so not an easy task. after about 15 minutes, the clouds parted and the skies cleared. prayers do get answered. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a

from the most important things to me, my kids and my husband. and not just the time when i'm actually taking the photos, but as the article explains, downloading and processing and prints and cds and the list goes on...it all takes time. lots of time.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">i do this because i love it. i'm still honing my craft, evolving and changing and improving. i hope and pray that never stops. i realize the value there is in the emotion filled images of your loved ones...they are definitely worth every penny.</div><div
