xo, christina

meet the Waddell family…I have had the pleasure to have their friendship for the last 6 years.  Kristin & I met at a M.O.P.S. group (I believe it was abput 6 years ago…losing track of time!)  We had one of the most wonderful groups that year….we got together on a regular basis w/ all of our kiddos and just hung out - life was a little less hectic then! Great friends that I am so blessed to have! xo

About a year and half ago, Chris was diagnosed w/ cancer.  He had surgery last year.  And this past summer, was told it was back.  They were given some horrible news at first but later told that it was in fact treatable. Praise God…God is so good!!! They have been on one heck of a roller coaster!  He has just finshed his most recent chemo treatments and will be headed back to MD Anderson in Texas.  There he will do blood work, CT Scan and a PT Scan.  I would like to ask everyone to pray for complete healing for Chris and and a safe trip home. They have an amazing testimony and story. You can view it here.

I just had a wonderful photo shoot the other night. Tessa was sooooo kind, sweet and beautiful. Oh! and look at her beautiful eyelashes! Those are not photoshop’d! Beautiful! We started at the studio and finished at Tubbs Hill. I am starting to get my exercise now =) I have sessions on Tubbs every week for the next 6 weeks. It was such a pleasure hiking w/ Tessa and her Mom….fun talking to you two….it was almost like we’ve known each other for years! I can’t wait for your family shoot in the fall! Thanks for a wonderful photo shoot.
PS The 2nd image w/ the pink background is a sample page that I just designed that would be great in a senior folio or could also be used in a senior graduation party announcement, etc.

I never got a chance to blog any of these pictures when I first took them. I was just working on their order and wanted to share how beautiful this family is! You can really tell what a warm, loving family they are:) When doing their ordering session, Teri “dad” had a vision on how he wanted a couple of pics printed. It is the one of him and Vivian under the tree. To print one as a 10×10 and the other as a 4×10. They will later have them matted and framed. I think it’s gonna look great! A great artistic eye:)
I love this tree for husband & wife pictures…the tree is so cool how it is wrapped around the other. It reminds me of two people in love.
