Meeting Miss Avery was overwhelming, so much joy and excitement. I've never experienced this feeling...learning about someone, praying for someone, and following the life of a person states away in an online journal, until Miss Avery. Sarah contacted me over a year ago asking some questions about photography and I have since grown to love this little soul and family through their blog.
My favorite and also used for the American Heart Association Flyer, rock on Sarah!!
Love Chicago's cityscape in the back!
Pretty sure these next few are my favorite family series ever.
Happy Belated Birthday Avery! And many, many more!! Love xox
What? I've silently admired the work on your blog for quite some time, and I did not expect to come here to see Avery (and her mommy and daddy)! Beautiful, beautiful images and family!

Clary I LOVE these!!!!! And of course Avery is a doll! Really, you captured the sweetest family moments ever. My fav is the one where Daddy is holding Avery and Avery & mommy's foreheads are touching. LOVE that one. I almost feel like I'm in that moment with my Avery's forehead touching mine. The light is heavenly. Just fabulous, girl.
