A little sneak peak of some digital photos that I took for Marianne and Drew’s engagement photos. We shot a combination of film and digital for a stylized-vintage-look. They are beautiful people.

Enjoy!

Life is turning 1 in a little over a month and my graphic designer bestie, Medea, has been working on her birthday party invitation. As some of you know, Life was very sick when she was born, so her first birthday party is going to be a day of celebration for us.  All are welcome.

Medea wrote me to tell me the meaning behind the cloud in the invite and so I thought I’d share it with you here:

One thing I keep forgetting to tell you is about the cloud on the front of the invite…. When Life was really sick in the hospital, I had two similar experiences on the road while I was driving in the exact same place about a week apart. There is this really sharp S curve on the back roads going to Firewheel. Twice when I was driving to church on a sunny day, this giant, almost storm cloud was hovering right above me. There was not another cloud in the sky. And peeking out from behind it were the most beautiful rays of sun. Both times God used nature to show me that things were really cloudy right now- so cloudy that if I was right under it, there is no way I would have seen the sun behind it. However, He gave me a bigger perspective by being able to see the beauty and sunshine beyond it and once the cloud had passed. This happened to me twice, two weeks in a row and left me very peaceful about what God was doing in Life.

The cloud stays. It’s perfect.

vanessa warren: so beautiful....& to know the meaning behind the design makes it perfect indeed! turning ONE is such a huge milestone...i'm sure the party is going to be AMAZING! enjoy planning it. :) ( June 25, 2009 7:58 am )

Jill Hatley: Really beautiful! I love knowing the meaning behind the design. What a creative dream team you besties are! ( June 24, 2009 8:28 pm )

Keith Green: Wow! The design is amazing. You and Medea both are so talented. BTW, we can't wait to have you do our family pics! Holly is pumped! ( June 24, 2009 9:23 am )

Meet my amazing Dad. He’s battled two different bouts of brain cancer, two different brain surgeries, chemo, radiation, and lived to tell.

I couldn’t be more thankful for more time with you and more life to live being your daughter. Thanks for being my daddy and sacrificing for us. I love you dearly. Happy Father’s Day, Daddy.
