I think we can all say that if not now, at one time or another we have all fallen prone to the weight of the hustle and bustle life throws at us. If we aren’t careful it can sneak up on us, overcome us and hold us down. We start losing sight of the things […]

Have you ever watched couples as they walk down a busy sidewalk, sit in a restaurant or cafe, make their way through an airport, or stroll through a park? Some you watch and think hmmmm, business associates? or married couple? I wonder how they feel about each other? Are they married? Others its quite obvious […]

Goodness. I could just go on and on about the wonders and glories of God in each of the past sessions I have had the distinct honor of shooting recently. This one is absolutely no exception.
