I’m so excited about a new personal project I’m undertaking, Film Fridays. The last Friday of each month will be a personal post showcasing a roll of film I shot during the month. I’ve teamed up with some amazing women from Bloom so we may challenge each other as we explore this medium. Some of us (myself included) have been shooting film forever, others are developing their first rolls…but we all have a love for capturing life, for stretching ourselves, and for finding the soul in a subject.

having lived here

more than 20 years,

I’m Texan

for sure.

but I don’t do the

State Fair

or Big 12/SEC athletics.

I don’t have big hair,

own cattle,

or live on a ranch.

when it comes to

wildflower season,

however,

I couldn’t be

more

Texan.

this year

my boys

have played in,

and mama’s documented,

indian paintbrush,

mustard weed,

red bonnets,

and the all-too-famous

bluebonnets.

it’s a Texan right of passage,

and one my boys

will experience

year after year.

I met Zoe’s mommy

thirteen years ago.

we were sophomores at

Penn State

and found ourselves

in the same pledge class

for an amazing sorority.

Zoe’s daddy is also a

Penn Stater

I’ve known

more than a decade.

Zoe,

well she is

perfect

in every way.

just under seven pounds of

full lips,

deep blue eyes,

and the longest fingers.

her mom and dad are

head over heels,

totally smitten,

and counting their

blessings.

life is just about

perfect

at this moment.

 

her two sweet cousins stopped by for a bit…

he’s back.

sweet boy,

your eyes slay me.

that stubborn streak,

makes it

all the more rewarding

to catch a grin.

you are perfect

and so

incredibly

loved -

mom & dad are obviously

smitten…

can’t say I blame them.
