A Lot of Catching Up To Do

If I am not mistaken, the last time I posted anything on this blog was mid May--just days before our lives got completely turned upside down.
The day after Mother's day, we found out that Jason had cancer. Now, months later, I am happy to report that we are out of the woods, cancer free, and still photographing life! Although, more of our own lives than anyone else. After surgery and radiation and a few weeks recovery, we are entering another new adventure in life--becoming parents of TWO little girls.
Little Naomi Alison joined our family three weeks ago. We are all adjusting well, and Sophia loves her new little sister.
So, I may not have many people who actually read this blog anymore, due to it's rather stagnant state of being, but for those of you who do, here are a few snapshots of our latest photo shoot--Naomi.

I don't know how much catching up I will do, but I will try to stay more up-to-date now that we have made it over the last two hurdles. Hopefully we can showcase some our work on this blog again, and share with you some of our favorite pictures.

I should mention, however, that in May we also decided to close our little studio. So, for those of you who want those studio shots--we do still have a few lights and back drops and we can come to you. But for the most part, we are parents before we are picture people. That is why we chose to make this change. Our time is precious and while we love sharing it with those of you who want our photography skills, we want first to share it with our two girls and with each other. So we are cutting back on work and getting to the most important part of life--living! We have not given up on a dream of someday making this passion for pictures a full-time reality. But for now, we will keep it at a loving part-time, pass-time, side job that brings us lots of new friends and an ever expanding view of the world around us.

Thanks to all our friends who make it possible for us to do what we do and be who we are.
