the smith family

One of my favorite things about photography is blessing others with photographs that they will treasure forever. Not that they'd be treasured because of my talent or skill but because of the subjects in the photographs...the people that are loved beyond words. While I was processing the Smith family's photos I realized I have A LOT to learn about photography. At times it can be discouraging and overwhelming and then little bits of encouragement come along (through words from others or a breakthrough discovery on my own) that spur me on.
The Smiths have been good friends of ours for years. We have been blessed by their friendship and are so honored to be a part of their lives. So, I really wanted to bless them with some great photographs of their family. Their youngest {T} just turned one so we also set out to capture some unique one year old shots. Big brother {N} is full of energy and was very patient with all our requests for smiles.
Thank you Smith family for allowing me to capture your treasured moments.
