I'm catching up

Well at least trying =(

Nikki I thought you might enjoy this preview!

If you are waiting for your wedding or senior session preview, I should have it up soon. Thank you all in advance!

Please pray for our family

Yesterday was one month since my brother went home to be with the Lord. It was very hard as it was but we couldn't get a hold of my uncle (my Dad's brother) and when we sent friends to check on him they found him passed away. I don't understand why this is happening in my life right now but I know God's plan is perfect. Although it is very difficult.

Fun stuff from Jessica's wedding

During the wedding this little one had some objections ;)


Oh my who couldn't love a little guy in cow boy boots?





The wedding was outside and we had special visitors


Another adorable baby


Jessica's sister was a ball of fun


Ok so this is what happens when you give the "guys" an ok to do a funny picture


"Hey lady, how many pictures are you gonna take?!"


This is why I love having Lydia as my assistant: this is probably one of my favorite boquet shots ever! Great job girl!


Great DJ shot


Love Love this shot of the couples first dance. His sister and her sister are overwhelmed with emotions


Tracy I think this little guy should have honked ;)


Oh my one of the best speaches I've heard all year. She said "some people say they have a best friend who is just like a sister but I am lucky enough to say my best friend is my sister


And before we leave!

Comfort

One of my friends sent this song and it has been a blessing knowing that people can help me bear this burden by praying.

Another preview for Jessica and Tony

You guys are so patient and I am grateful. I adored so many parts of your wedding (I think the size of this post will show it).

Love that you picked this wonderful location because it reminded you of Madeline's house


It was such a beautiful location and day. Perfect


Seriously beautiful ring


Beautiful sisters and what a beautiful bond between the two of you.


Getting ready




I think this look explains exactly how she felt about the makeup situation (lol)


Look how relaxed (being a child is wonderful)


One of the prettiest dresses I've ever seen





Love this shot ;)





The Bride's first glimpse of herself as "the bride"





This place was so full of character









Hiding so the groom won't see lol!


Oh my Jessica you are beautiful





Sisters need I say more...


Beautiful (inside too )


Handsome groom for a beautiful bride


Silly guys


I found a wild apple tree


I can't stress how amazing this location was





I've always wanted to do this shot








Love this :)

Today is hard

My parents have given me many wonderful gifts but one of the best was the gift of my baby brother.

This is not at all how
We thought it was supposed to be
We had so many plans for you
We had so many dreams
And now you've gone away
And left us with the memories of your smile
And nothing we can say
And nothing we can do
Can take away the pain
The pain of losing you, but ...

We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no
And we can grieve with hope
'Cause we believe with hope
(There's a place by God's grace)
There's a place where we'll see your face again
We'll see your face again

And never have I known
Anything so hard to understand
And never have I questioned more
The wisdom of God's plan
But through the cloud of tears
I see the Father's smile and say well done
And I imagine you
Where you wanted most to be
Seeing all your dreams come true
'Cause now you're home
And now you're free, and ...

We have this hope as an anchor
'Cause we believe that everything
God promised us is true, so ...

So we can cry with hope
And say goodbye with hope

We wait with hope
And we ache with hope
We hold on with hope
We let go with hope
