i met John and Niki briefly a couple of years ago. circumstances didn’t really provide us with much of an opportunity to converse or even get to know each other. but somehow, they remained etched into my memory and heart.
a couple of months ago, i was randomly thinking about what it is that i am privileged to provide for my clients. i never take lightly the memories i capture for families. the life that i prove for them. and everyday… i’m thankful for the opportunities.
for unknown reasons, i remembered John and Niki again. a couple of days later… she sent me an email, letting me know that she was expecting Olivia and wanted me to photograph her as a newborn. i blinked at my computer monitor for several minutes in complete surprise and disbelief! what a coincidence! i feverishly typed a response stating how i had JUST been thinking about them and was glad to hear that they were doing well. i was completely humbled by their request to photograph their baby girl.
never have i anticipated a session as much as i did this one. i was so anxious to meet Olivia and see John and Niki again
john and niki – i will never be able to adequately describe how humbled and honored i am that you remembered me. that you gave me the wonderful opportunity to meet this sweet little angel of yours! i am overwhelmed by your love toward this tiny little being. i am touched by your strength. courage. perserverence. and faith. you had both changed my heart that day in September and the simple request to capture this time in your lives moves me in ways you will probably never really understand. thank you!!! thank you for allowing me to witness this miracle in your lives. thank you for gracing me with your lives, spirits, hearts and souls again. i am FOREVER thankful. appreciative. and indebted to you for giving me this very special and tender glance into your family! olivia is perfection beyond definition and you have been chosen by God to be her parents.
