the Lord has certainly rewarded me with precious children of His heritage. just this past week my daughter approached me and stated she was unhappy with the way her school photos turned out and said, "don't buy them ok." i offered to re-do them so that she may have photos to pass out on her last day of elementary school. she was so excited to see the results of the shoot and picked her three favorites. i was so honored and blessed that she took me up on the offer. as always, the original photos were done with natural lighting. background edits were added to create that typical school photo feel. please enjoy.
