Today on the blog I wanted to feature a very special mom in my life, my sister. 

This session was very near and dear to my heart because I had the rare opportunity to photograph her growing family. Her husband is in the army and they are currently stationed in Washington, D.C. To my delight, the cherry blossoms had just burst into bloom and made the perfect backdrop along the river. Katie and Stephen recently welcomed their fourth daughter into the world and it was so sweet to capture the wonder of bringing new little life into a family. One of the reasons I love what I do is being able to freeze in time the special moments between siblings that, as a busy mom, are so fleeting and easy to miss. What a precious gift from God those moments are on the hard days. 

Happy Mother's Day!

This is one beautiful and amazing mom!

Only 6 weeks old and already waving for the camera!

The way she looks at her daddy makes my heart melt!

Aren't they the cutest?
