Life is a Miracle

From the moment you're conceived to the moment you are born...to the all the moments you share in life- It is a miracle. Jesus was very creative and thoughtful when he made each one of us. Miracles are happening all around us and I think we should start taking notice more often.

This family is very special to me. Lynsey is my best friend of 18 years and Jeremy is my great friend of 12 years. I'd like to think I had something to do with them meeting :) Recently Jeremy was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. We did not believe the report and immediately started praying and raising money to help their family.

We recently got news that his tumors have shrunk in HALF! Thank you JESUS!

This called for celebration. Lynsey had all her kids together for the holidays and we decided to take photos of such a great occasion. I love this family and their hearts really show through these photos. Enjoy

Merry Christmas Everyone!,

Project Time

Everyone is trying to save money here and there...and well ANYWHERE!

I am about to embark on a big spend for my lighting. It's time for some upgrades and this is a costly endeavor. Let's just say Alien Bees and myself are about to have a major transaction in our near future :)

I'm always down for a challenging project and with the holidays near I will be free from teaching. My BFF and Assistant (Bobby) are going to build our own Beauty Dish.

Check out the link below:

I'll be sure to get photos and how the build goes when we finish. Til then- wish us luck!

-stay tuned-

Giddy for the arrival of Gidian!

Had such a great time shooting with one of my awesome musical co-workers. Naoka and her husband have an amazing miracle story.

They had been trying for MANY years to get pregnant and struggled. It was amazing the faith and hope they still carried through their roughest times. Naoka always said when and if God gave them a baby--it would be His will and perfect timing. Now we are 2 weeks away from her due date and everyone is all smiles.

Good thing we worked this in quickly! She had already dialated 1 cm! The countdown is on!

What a beautiful person and great time we had. Congrats to the Harada Family on Baby Gidian!
