Heaven gained 2 angels today

I write this post with a very heavy heart tonight....I had two clients pass away tonight.

Before I honor them, I want to point out that I feel so honored to be a photographer were I have the opportunity of coming into families lives and capturing the special memories. As I look back on the images that I captured in those 2 sessions I am overwhelmed just thinking about how God has used these two to further HIS kingdom.
This is Jude, he passed away tonight at 11 months old. Jude means "Praise the Lord", and wow did he ever! He is such a joyful baby...even at 1 week old he was smiling:) And every picture I have seen of him after....he always has a BIG, gummy smile.

I am praying for you Jessica and Daniel as you go through this incredible loss. But I know that Jude's life brought so much JOY to everyone that knew him. What a precious little miracle baby!

And this is Missy. I had the amazing opportunity of meeting her 2 weeks ago and capturing her with her beautiful family at her home. I only was with Missy for about 30 minutes but WOW did she shine. You could tell that she had such a sincere, kind heart. One that drew others to her. I am sure she was in tremendous pain, but you would never know with her smile. I feel honored to have met you. I know that you impacted so many peoples lives. Thank you for impacting mine as well!
