Thanksgiving Weekend

I don't know about you guys, but Thanksgiving is different every year.  It is hard to enjoy things when there is change, but most of the time, change is a great thing! This year, I went to my Father in law's side of the family for lunch & to my mother in law's side for dinner. I got to meet new family members & got to visit with others.

Two Christmases ago, I went to my mother in law's mom's house for Christmas as Isaac's NOT girlfriend, & a month later he told me he loved me & started the courting process. 11 months later he proposed & we got married 1 month later. Now I get the priviladge of taking pictures for my family that I gained 11 months ago. :) Here are a few pictures of this Thanksgiving on my mother in law's side.

This is my mom's side of the family.

         Mom & Dad are the most beautiful couple I have ever met! They have been a huge blessing to me inviting me into their family. I couldn't ask for better parents in law. :)

                     These are my sisters & brother in law along with mom, dad & my husband. :)
I hope you all had a great thanksgiving!! I sure didn't know what to expect this year, but I sure do have a lot to be thankful for!!!

Mark & Bevan *Married*

          The morning of the wedding, I woke up to the most beautiful sunrise I have seen in such a long time. I took my camera out & couldn’t stop looking at the sun. It was breath taking. Next thing I noticed while sitting on the porch was a bee on a beautiful purple flower.     Normally I’m afraid of bees, but this time, I couldn’t look at it without looking at how God could create something so beautiful.   A few hours later, my husband & I took a nice walk around the woods. As we walked close to the river, something jumped out in front of me & scared the life out of me. But as soon as Isaac wrapped his arms around me and whispered in my ear to calm down & breathe, I stopped long enough to see that it was a baby deer, which I have never seen before. The day was going so well, until about an hour before I was supposed to arrive to start taking wedding pictures. It was pouring down HARD!  ...

 It's been quite a while since I have made a post here. A lot of life has happened and I am not in a place to share too much right now. But I will share these unedited pictures because I have yet to get an editing software yet, but I am hoping to start up my photography company again soon! So, I will share these sweet pictures I took of my boys at Myrtle Beach last April. But as I do, I have a question I want to ask. Have you ever heard a song and immediately have this image of what this song is saying and come to tears? Yep, this is definitely me. I first heard the song called, "Rise Up" by Andra Day,  in a kids movie & immediately started crying.  The idea that I was broken down & tired felt so real to me. But I was learning how to fight for myself. I have been hidden for so many years and I couldn't find the fighter in me. But when I heard this song, along with everything I was learning, I decided to "walk it out".  And I rose. I was still afraid,...

I have had the pleasure of taking this family's pictures 5 times & I have loved every second of it!!! The first time I took their pictures, Erin & Daniel were expecting Sammy. They weren’t due for another two weeks or so, but I guess the whole getting up & down for pictures might have helped the process along.  So a few days later, Sammy was born.            The 2 nd time I took their pictures, Sammy was 1. We took family pictures & I had no idea what was coming.     Towards the end of the shoot, Erin pulled an orange sign & said, “You can’t tell anyone about this yet.” And I said, “of course” without knowing what was coming. She turned the sign so I could read it and it said, “I’m going to be a big brother!” I squealed & laughed!! I was so excited beyond what words could say! If you know this family at all, you know that both Sammy & the newest addition are a huge blessing!!!! ...
