This day was sweet. The cry of a newborn that some thought might never be born, a child that might be born with serious defects and illness. His smooth entry into the world, and his perfect little body, and swoops of soft brown hair reminded us of God’s sovereignty. Whether he had been a baby…
Bethesda Farm
The Evan’s family has left the world of corporate success for a world of dependency on God and service to some of our most precious people on the planet. They bought a farm, and invited people in to share in the joy of animals, arts, agriculture, and outdoors. If you ever get the chance, please take…
Sweet Arwen

Sugar and Spice
Taking advantage of this foggy weekend past, these sisters made the most of each moment. Their Momma was rolling solo, her hubby and mine on the Act Like Men Conference in Chicago. Thank you for coming out, Jill, aka Super Mom, hanging with you and your crew was a fantastic treat!
$50 GET REAL mini-sessions
Often I find myself in places and times and I say to myself, “Self, this would be SUCH a perfect time for a photo session.” Some incredible sunrise, or a fog that has rolled in over Lake Michigan; there are these displays of God’s awesome creation that just set your heart on fire with His majesty…
