I wasn’t sure if the second round of mini sessions for Hurricane Harvey victims/relief fundraising was going to be able to match, much less top the first round, but y’all…. it was amazing too! These families were just as incredible, and I love the images just as much.

I had so many conversations about the struggle to come back from such a terrible loss, and so many of them went so much deeper than just things that have to be replaced. These people are fighters, and they seriously inspire me to fight through my own struggles and make the time to smile.

These sessions were just 20 minutes long, but I could have spent an hour or more with each of these families.

How gorgeous is this mother/daughter duo?!?!

Meagan, you are gorgeous, girl!!

Ummmm… model status right here!!

Only a portion of the Reese family was able to make it for our session, but I am so glad they did!

Such a sweet moment, Sandi! I love this one!

That little tongue just kills me!

Isn’t Madelyn just the cutest?!?!

Again… seriously… Angie, y’all are models! Could this family look any more amazing?!

There was a pretty solid battle about teeth or no teeth for the smiles with this one… I’d say both sides of the battle were right!

Love this shot of all the guys!

These two were so full of energy & life, & I loved it! We even survived the need for a bandaid mid-session & bounced back like a pro!

That grin!

That one on the left just gets me right in the feels! So sweet.

Love this one!

Another favorite!

 

To the Reese, Eastman, Shultz & Russell families, thank you for spending your time with me & I hope you continue to find ways to focus on little moments of joy as we are entering the holiday season in the midst of recovery. I am so thankful to have met each one of you & hope to see you again in the future!!
