Things That Make Life Worth Living

It appears that from here on out, my life will be a never ending coming up short catching up on this blog...

But for now, here's an experience that should not go unrecorded.  I recently had the honor of being there to photograph my friend Lu's fourth child and first girl's first moments.  This was Lu's fourth C-section and because of the difficulty of the procedure and possible complications (which she had none of praise God), I wasn't able to be in there for the birth.  But I was waiting right outside to follow her through those first moments.  What an experience it was to be able to share this experience with my sweet friend.  Thank you for letting me share such a sweet moment with you Lu
