Lord, give me the strength to watch her grow and know how to let go and hold on all at the same time~ Amen.

this mom and her little girls were so precious. they were about to catch a flight that evening to travel home to the mainland to be with family during the holidays. i so enjoyed our brief time together, and these girls truly were just pure sweetness~IMG_6356blog IMG_6354blog IMG_6359blog IMG_6348blog IMG_6414blog IMG_6374blog IMG_6375blog IMG_6378blog IMG_6379blog IMG_6384blog IMG_6386blog IMG_6396blog IMG_6397blog IMG_6402blog IMG_6404blog IMG_6410blog IMG_6424blog IMG_6430blog IMG_6435blog IMG_6438blog IMG_6442blog IMG_6443blog IMG_6445blog-2 IMG_6451blog IMG_6454blog IMG_6457blog IMG_6458blog IMG_6460blog IMG_6459blog blogcollage1 blogcollage2

I was so excited when her mom asked me to take her headshots! We adore Jasmine and her family, and this lil’ one definitely lights up when the camera turns on. Taking her pics was a breeze, a ton of fun, and definitely made me fall in love with doing headshots!

…and i had to throw in these of older brother! what a cutie too!
Good luck Jasmine in your budding career, look forward to seeing you on the big screen someday soon! xo

I don’t know where it went, I was rolling right along and then the train kinda derailed. I know that it’s so cliche, to say that when you are following your passions, there are bound to be highs and lows, bumps in the road. But sometimes the things that challenge you, well they take you by surprise. Or they can cut you at the knees. I know that any small setbacks are in my way, only to throw me into the next realm…
and along the way learning that life can be equally beautiful, viewed in color or in black and white.

reminds me that God is always shining a flashlight from above…

violent spring flashing white on almond-blossom through the purple clouds;
a snowy, moonlit peak, with its single star, soaring up to the passionate blue;
or against the flames of sunset, an old yew-tree standing dark guardian of some fiery secret.
-John Galsworthy
