Author Archives: admin Being a photographer, I always have to laugh when mommies tell me they count on ME to get their Christmas card portraits or those coveted sibling shots that they have NOT been able to get no matter how hard they try! Well, I always say right back that it’s not my camera or me—it’s having […]  The last couple of days/weeks, emails have begun to trickle in with general questions about adoption. How thankful I am to see and hear that God is stirring hearts to bring little ones home to a forever family!!! I remember in the beginning for us–we felt like adopting was something that had always been something […] Great information! I feel like a learned some things, especially things to ask your agency. Awesome post…great info for people…Thanks for the sweet "shout out" Have a great weekend, kristi Thank you for your encouragement, Andrea! It was fun to "meet" you over the phone the other day. 🙂  OK—promised I’d post about our final movie filming, but I got side-tracked with our MAKING THE WAITLIST…and the “real life” stuff trumps the movie making ANY day! Last Wednesday, we returned to the set to complete our filming in the movie “Life As We Know It” starring Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhemal which will premiere […] I can't stop laughing at Laney-loo's picture with Katherine Heigl!! This is probably the funniest picture she's ever taken.. and when she's all grown up, she'll look back and think, "I was with a movie star and this is the face I made!" haha!!! I love her sooooo much!!!!!! What a fun opportunity! Very cool that you got to share 147 stuff with Katherine, too! I was just at Gwen's house tonight getting more necklaces for Christmas gifts. Love them :). I love the picture of Laney and Katherine…priceless. Thanks for sharing about your fun. I think I will stay out of the movie business, but it was fun to see it though your experience 🙂 So, glad you are on the waiting list too! Did you see all of the court and travel dates that were given this week. I can only guess that lots of referrals will be given after December 🙂 what a hoot!! such a fun memory for your whole family!! Jenn too cute!! Great story – love Katherine Heigl, she is such a sweetheart. […] as I cleaned our files, I stumbled upon 6 random checks from the movie we were in last Fall (another crazy story of God’s provision). We also randomly last week got a check in the mail from a past photography job that I decided […] What a journey this has already been! We are praising God for bringing us this far—and we are so excited that we are another step close to our baby!!! We felt like this was such a huge milestone…and I feel officially EXPECTING…and being a photographer who loves pictures—I kind of like to think of this […] Yay! I know you have been waiting a long time for these numbers. Strangely you're the second family to post wait list numbers today and you both are #45 on the girls list 🙂 They must have had a lot to sort through with all the families having dossier's turned in last week.
