The Hooper Photo Shoot

I had so much fun doing this photo shoot! Talk about beautiful kids. Wow! I grew up with Lisa. She has a darling family and we had a blast. I especially like the first two pictures of Lisa kissing her dog Missy. Missy is 18 years old and I remember when Lisa first brought her home. She is precious to Lisa, in fact Missy is Lisa's first child. I was so excited to capture such a precious picture. It brought tears to my eyes just knowing how much Missy means to Lisa. It was my goal to get some good pictures of her wonderful companion of 18 years. I love photography!

Crystal Arizona

In November I met my good friend Harriet in Crystal, Arizona for her father's funeral. Although such a sad occasion, I felt very honored to be a part of the celebration of her dads life. Her family members were so gracious and wonderful to me. They made me feel a part and share in their traditions of letting someone go on to the next life. It was an experience I will never forget.

I am so sorry for Harriet. She has had to say goodbye to her sister Vivian, her mother and now her father. I pray that our good Lord gives her comfort, peace and love during this time of grief.
