Jaci's getting so big!

It's always so fun for me to get to watch kids grow up on camera! It seems like yesterday that we were shooting newborn pictures, and now she's starting to talk! My how time flies!!!

Staci said...: I love every single one of them!!! She is soooo adorable in all of them. Will you email them to me. I don't know which one to choose to put up in the house. Now maybe when we do family pictures we won't have to worry about doing her seperately! Thanks for practicing on her even though you didn't get the outcome you wanted. I think they are super great, her hair even looks ok!; October 21, 2009 at 8:01 PM

Hi, thanks for coming!

Have you ever met someone that you were just unexplainably drawn to? Three weeks ago I met a photographer that changed my life, my whole way of thinking, and certainly the way I will approach every photo I create from now on. He was so genuine, like he didn't have any of the social walls that we put up as adults. He didn't have judgement in his eyes. And he treated me, in a sea of thousands of people, like I was the only person he cared about. And it touched me more deeply than anything has in a long time. I decided right then and there that I could never be the same. I would never be satisfied with "cheese" smile again. I care about people too much. I care about relationships too much. So my new goal as a photographer is to draw you out. The real you. The you without the walls that you put up for the rest of the world. Because the real you is beautiful! Whatever shape, size, color. People love the real you. I want to know you too! And I want to photograph the real you!
