i am blessed. i am blessed with a beautiful family. i am blessed with a love and deep connection in my faith…and i am blessed with a circle of friends where an outpouring of love and graciousness abounds.  many friends that i have today are people with whom i’ve spent years knowing, growing and connecting with.  cultivating and nurturing these friendships which will continue to impact my life for years to come.  the beauty of photography is that i can look through a lens and capture the essence of a family and the relationships within it.  when the people i photograph are my friends i am blown away by the sheer magnitude of this.  on sunday i spent some time doing just this with my friends, tami, shawn and their two gorgeous children, konnar & kaleigh.  we did a session at the mcnay art museum.  it was awesome and amazing and life changing (ok, so maybe not life changing….but close) no, seriously, we had fun.  the kids were hysterical.  little kaleigh who is 4 was cracking me up because she kept picking up rocks and pecans and holding them up to show me as i was snapping a picture.  so here are a few of my faves from the day

case in point…

Thanks for your friendship guys!! much love!
