Happy First Birthday, Everly Gracen!

 

If I had my wits about me at all lately, this would have been posted yesterday, on her actual birthday… but since I don’t, here I am sending belated birthday wishes to my favorite one year old, Everly. You might recall I was present at Everly’s birth and have thoroughly enjoyed watching her become her impish little self over the past year! I was invited to join the family celebration of her one year milestone on Sunday and captured some fun photos of her enjoying the traditional first birthday cake….

   

Happy Birthday, Everly!

Kind Words from Luke’s Grandpa

Sometimes I receive such beautiful kind words about my work that I just have to share… like these I found in my inbox a couple days ago from the father of one of my clients. He brought tears to my eyes and completely made my day : )

Hi Sandi,

My name is Carl U. (Frank’s Dad.) I just saw the images on your site of my grandson Luke and I had to let you know how great I think they are. I do not have much skill behind the camera but I was the manager of a large portrait photo lab from before and during the change over to digital. I have seen and corrected the work of many master photographers and I have to say what you are doing with digital is top notch. I am very impressed with your use of light and shadows which seemed to go away when digital took over. The way you captured Luke’s spirit rather than just his image is a rare talent. Thank you for what you do.

Respectfully,

Carl U.
