Emett. Mini Session!

So fun to photograph Beth {an old friend/co-worker that I haven't seen in 10 years} and her beautiful family. Aren't they just darling? It was so great meeting all of her sweet kids. Turns out, we both named our oldest child Grace! Obviously we have great taste in names. ;) Enjoy!

Families are Forever.

Meet the Henry Family! Beautiful, caring, funny, positive, strong....they are a fantastic bunch!

I was truly honored to do this session with them.  Tom was recently diagnosed with aggressive Stage 4 Melanoma and is currently undergoing treatment at the Huntsman Cancer Institute. His positive attitude has been astounding to me and I am so touched by the love and support Brandy has for him and her little family. Brandy is one of my dear friends from High School and she is truly a beautiful woman, inside and out. I just adore her. My heart was full with emotion as I watched Tom and Brandy interact with each other as a couple and with their children.  You could genuinely feel the bond they share and the love they have for each other.  Such sweet, perfect moments.

Brandy's darling younger sister, Angie, was also recently diagnosed with cancer.  (#cancersucks).  She too is undergoing treatment.  Ang is a young mother of 3 and somehow manages to be witty, funny and faithful in the face of her diagnosis. Yet another inspiration to me! You can read more about Angie on her blog, here: http://angiesarmy-fight.blogspot.com/
