A priviledge...

I had the wonderful priviledge of being invited along on a special and very fun shoot. My friend Wynona (http://www.wynonarobison.typepad.com/) is a photographer who has started a special project. I asked if I could be a part of it and she graciously agreed. We will be doing photo sessions for families who have a member of their family born with a cleft lip. My second daughter was born with a cleft lip and palate. It was discovered during a routine ultrasound. I remember when we found out, I did a lot of research online. I didn't find very many photos and those I did find were very medical and factual (usuing a term from Wynona - sterile). But, what I hoped for was to find evidence that these children had normal healthy loving...amazing lives. So, that's what the project is all about.

This shoot was of a beautiful family!!! James and Anna have been blessed by two beautiful and fun boys. Both of whom were born with cleft lips. Since the day I took these, the littlest has had surgery to install a prothesis and has had his lip repair. He'll never look like this again. I'm so grateful I had the opportunity to do this.

James, Anna, and boys - Thank you for letting me be a part of your lives for a day! It was a wonderful priviledge!!!

Gorgeous COLOR!!

Remember L from my recent engagement shoot? Well, I got to do her bridals last Saturday. It was so fun and I ended up with so many photos of her! She was just gorgeous! I'm so excited to post them, but I won't. What a tease I am, eh??? I decided to wait until after the wedding on Saturday because I know L didn't want T to see her in her dress before the big day and I couldn't post them and then find out later that T somehow saw them! I would feel horrible! So...stay tuned!!!!

Also, coming soon - an adorable 9 mo old baby B!!
