Since Josephine got sick, we have gotten some pretty amazing support from our friends, family, and even strangers. Support has come in the form of (the expected) cards, pictures, presents, and money, but has also included (the unexpected) house cleanings, yard mowings, dinners, groceries, haircuts, and more. A couple of weeks ago, we got the chance to hang out as a family without tubes, IVs, or needles. Just playing in the yard, swinging, and reading books. A very special lady, one who has been with us for some of our most important life events (engagement, wedding, friends, new additions) donated her time and expertise to capture the morning on camera.

I can’t say enough about Rachel Moore. She is a gentle and kind person who brings out the best in the people she photographs. She is easy to work with, smiley and fun, and a phenomenal artist. Thank you, Rachel. Thanks for supporting our family through this difficult time. Thank you for being there at the beginning of Ryan and I as a family unit, and for capturing beautiful moments along the way. And most especially, thank you for giving us pictures of our family of four as WE see it, with smiles and wiggles, laughter and cuddles. I’m so happy we have these beautiful images of us all together to capture this moment in time, regardless of what is on the horizon.

If any of you out there need a wedding photographer or someone to capture a moment in your life, please consider Rachel. She’s the best. The photos in this post are all to her credit.
