*DOUBLE CLICK IMAGE TO VIEW MORE CLEARLY*

Hello again.  Let me say that it is just too hot outside right now.  I am sweating off surley 500 calories during my sessions right now (I hope).  It is just too hot outside this time of year.  Despite all the heat I am still able to capture some great images.  These two were great.  He was a little shy at first but I think he started to really like it.  We literally had to run from the storm and had to end the session (that tells you how far behind I am if you know how long its been since a major storm).  Well these are some from the session so I hope ya’ll enjoy.  Please contine to pray for Amber.  We have to trust Him above. 

Words of Wisdom:  God will speak to the hearts of those who prepare themselves to hear; and conversely, those who do not so prepare themselves will hear nothing even though the Word of God is fallin upon their outer ears every Sunday.—–A.W. Tozer  (this is from Discerning The Voice of God by Priscilla Shirer). 

We never know why or how long we have to go through certain circumstances, but we have to learn to trust in God and listen to Him. 

Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight.

PROVERBS 3: 5-6

LORD, help us to trust in You and to not loose hope when we feel You do not hear us.  LORD help us to see You in every situation.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

Beautiful brother and sister Thursday, Jul 24 2008 

These two are just beautiful and photogentic.  They both did great in front of the camera and I just had a great time wtih them.   As always I love to see the love shared between siblings.  These are moments to cherish forever.  It was so hot and we had some close calls this day (mom you know what I mean). 

I am continuing to run about 8 sessions behind and working hard to try and catch up (I will never catch up).  I know that I have had to refer people elsewhere but I just cannot take on any more appointments for 2008.  I am sorry and I appreciate your understanding.  I encourage anyone interested for an appointment in 2009 to call and get on the list.  I never dreamed that God would bless my business like He has.  I give Him all the praise and glory for everything.  Everything I do is through Him.

Please continue to pray for Amber.  I do not have an update since two days ago.  I was told that she would be recieving aggressive treatment starting this week and could be at MD Anderson for 8-10 months.  God will perform a miricle in her body I believe.  Thanks for your prayers.

Words of Wisdom:  When you have Jesus, you have it all.  (Daily in Your Presence)

“When he found one (fine pearl) of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.”

MATTHEW 13:45

LORD, help us to teach our children that true happiness is in You.  Everything on earth is just temporary satisfaction and that You LORD are the only One who can satisfy our hearts.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

1cousin + 2 cousins = 3 cousins Monday, Jul 21 2008 

 

I have a prayer request for a young lady from here (Delhi) that was sent to MD Anderson last night with possible leukemia.  We prayed for her yesterday at church and I feel that she will receive her healing from God.  We never understand when we are in the middle of a storm why we are going through it, but God does allow us to go through things and He just wants us to trust in Him.  Please pray for this young lady (Amber, I won’t share  her whole name for her privacy, but God knows who she is).  I know that she is scared but I know God will bring her through.  He healed me and he is no respector of person.  I know this young lady has so much faith and I just want everyone to pray.  Thanks so much for the prayers.  The more the better I always think.  All the prayer helped bring Marty through her situation.  She is still undergoing therapy but has come a long way from that day she had her stroke and surgery.

This session was a lot of fun.  You never know what you are going to get with kids.  This was actually two sessions and we had to get them all together too.  I love that the oldest love to dress up like an Indian.  Here are a few and I hope ya’ll enjoy.

Words of Wisdom:  You never know what faith can do until you step into the water.  (Daily in your presence)

They confronted me in the day of my diaster, but the LORD was my support>

PSALM 18:18

LORD, help us to bind together and have faith in You.  We know that you can do anything and just help us all to have faith. Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

 

 

Three beautiful sisters! Wednesday, Jul 16 2008 

These girls were great.  Such sweet and pretty girls to work with.  We had fun despite the heat.  The drop in humidity lately has been great.  I enjoyed every minute I got to spend with these girls.  I love to see the love shared among siblings.  Here are a few and I hope ya’ll enjoy.  Thanks for stopping by to look.

Words of Wisdom:  “Anyone who takes hope away from the young is a murderer.  It is a sin to impart your own disillusionments, to share your disappointments and to rob them of an openness to life which is the chief blessing of the young.”  —Charlie Chaplin

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

ROMANS:  8:28

LORD, help us to lead others to You so that they can see hope in any situation.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

Fun Loving Family! Friday, Jul 11 2008 

*PLEASE DOUBLE CLICK IMAGE TO VIEW MORE CLEARLY* 

This family was so much fun.  We got to dance and sing and just have some fun.  This is what I call a great way to capture living life.  I just had a great time.  The little one loves Hannah Montana and she sang while everyone danced.   Dad was reserved, but did loosen up and really got into it.  Here are a few from the session and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Words of Wisdom:  Just forget about everyday life and have some fun.

Lord, let our eyes be opened.

MATTHEW 20:33NRSV

LORD, help us to all to live our lives the way You would see fit.  Help us to serve you.  Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!

I had to share this letter I had from a client when I got home from vacation.  This meant so much to me.  This is when I know I am doing what God has called me to do.  This is what it is all about.  Thank you so much Heather for sharing these kind words with me.  You will never know how much it touched my heart. May God Bless You!

Beautiful couple! Wednesday, Jul 9 2008 

Well we had a great vacation but now I need a vacation from a vacation.  I can’t seem to get caught up on the washing or putting things away where they go.  I did get every bag unpacked except one (my daughters).  I feel overwhelmed coming home to eight sessions behind.  I am getting nervous that I will never catch up.  Maybe by December I will be caught up.  I am already looking at my 2008 Christmas cards.  I have already ordered one set and have seen a few more.  Its sad that I am already having to buy my Christmas cards but if I don’t do it know I would only have mine from 2007 to offer.

My kidos had so much fun on our trip.  I highly reccomend Blue Bayou water park near Baton Rouge.  My son road every water slide except one.  He just had a blast.  The ammusment park side was great too.  My little girl loved it.  My husband and I were laughing so hard we were crying at her expressions on the rides.  She wanted to ride everything.

Well, I am back at work in full swing.  I had some proof books to get out when I got back and orders in and orders to place.  No rest now.  Well I know you remember this beautiful bride, well look at what a beautiful couple these two make.  I enjoyed photographing them so much and had a great time.  I know they think I am crazy.  Sometimes I think I am too.  Well I hope ya’ll enjoy.  May God bless these two with their marriage.

Words of Wisdom:  Always love one another.

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

1Peter 4:8

LORD, help us all to love one another, and bless this young couple with love and understanding. Amen.

Thanks & God Bless!
