I am totally smitten with these pictures. Once again you have blown me away. The use of the gritty settings offset by such a beautiful family is pure genius! xoxo

okay…. here it goes…. here are some quotes from the blogpost you did of our portraits from last year:
You: “…joy called me to shoot her family. we hit it off instantly on the phone and i couldn’t wait to meet her family. when i finally did i just fell in love with them…. i feel like i’ve made new friends.”
Me: “Jen, you are my new best friend, if you’ll have me.”
I am so honored that I know you, that I have gotten to know your heart this last year, and that you have become a fixture in my life that I am so thankful for. I love your passion to find what you are looking for and that you manage to embrace the journey. i love your thoughtfulness, your selflessness and the fact that you would throw yourself in front of a bus for a friend. i love that you are a mother and that you are real and not afraid to talk about things that are hard. I love your sweet family and the friends of yours that have become your family. I love that you make hard choices with dignity. I love that after not knowing me very long, brought me to-die-for food and things to make my heart happy when i was on bedrest with brandon. i love you and i love these photographs. i will treasure them throughout our lives and it will bring me joy to know it was you who took the photos. you know us… our imperfections, our failures, our struggles and our hearts and you took more than photographs – you really tell our story. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for these BREATHTAKING photos.
****Oh… Donny says to tell you “ditto” what I said on my comment. He loves them too.
