polzin family...

i simply adore this family,
and it was my pleasure to photograph them recently.
it was cold...
okay, it was FREEZING,
but they put on their smiles,
made "mental images" of warmth,
and we captured treasured memories of this time together.
thank you polzin family.

love. faith. family.

henry...

what a difference a year makes!
i had the pleasure of meeting this precious little boy (and his amazing parents) a year ago.
i was honored to meet little henry before his surgery.
his smile and eyes lit up any room...even if he wasn't a fan of the camera!
when i saw him post surgery,
i was brought to tears (yes kim...i had to hold them back until i got into my car).
it simply amazes me...the miracle of life.
there are those times we are thrown unexpected curve balls,
and along come the amazing hands of doctors...technology...
and the hope and faith of first time parents.
henry is such a strong little boy.
he's endured more than many in his one year.
it was with great pleasure, i was able to watch this precious boy walk through the park the other day.
it was cold....very cold.
sweet henry ran the show, and although at times he was not too happy with photos,
his smile shined through.
thank you henry for making a cold day warmer!
happy first birthday.

case family...

it was chilly and a bit wet, 
but this family powered through, 
and it ended up being a fantastic session!

i only WISH i looked this great after...
running a half marathon,
highlighting my own hair,
giving my boys haircuts,
and being sick!

yep, shannon...you rock!
thanks for sharing your family with me!
