Through her eyes


I have found the best new photographer!

These photos are my favorites from a recent photo shoot... I think they are amazing.

We were able to shoot the photos at our new house, and she was very willing to work around my schedule. She brought props (love the umbrella), and even some fun jewelry and glitter for me to wear. Any guesses?

For Mother's Day, my sweet Abigail asked to take photos of me! What an amazing gift. After watching, posing, and smiling through my love of photography, she knew that this is a language that speaks to my heart. She knows what I enjoy doing and she took an interest in it! Despite my shyness and insecurities, she pulled me from behind the lens and captured me in a beautiful light.

I love her thoughtful heart. I love how our relationship shows through. I love that, in spite of all the moments that I have failed, she still seeks the beauty in me. I love that she caught me laughing.

Abigail's name means: my father rejoices. I pray that she knows her mother rejoices over her too!
