Month: February 2016

There’s a Mini Cooper in the oven, and HER arrival date is getting closer!  I had the awesome privilege of capturing Big brother, Greyson, when he was a newborn and I can’t wait to meet Lucy too!  They were troopers, grinning and bearing through an outdoor shoot in February, in Toledo, Ohio!  Cara is shining in all her baby-belly beauty and Greyson humored me by showing me how he talks to his sister and loves on her already!  Enjoy this mini-gallery!

It’s no surprise that winter is the slowest time in a photography business.  Unless, of course, you live anywhere south of Ohio, or your client has thick skin to endure the frigid air that cuts through to your bones!  As I miss my clients and the fun adventures with my camera, these slow months offer lots of time for reflection.

Reflection is always good for the heart, mind and soul.  Reflecting over years past, improvements that have been made, or noticing places that could use improvement!  Reflecting over your life in the home and outside the home.  Are you the true YOU in both places…reflecting on goals set in the past and figuring how to refocus future goals.  Reflection does a body good.

In these slow months of being trapped inside, allow yourself time to reflect.  Whether you’re a Bible believer or not, the author of Proverbs offers wisdom to all, including a verse found in chapter 27, verse 19, “As a face is reflected in water, so the heart reflects the real person.”

By giving yourself time to reflect life, goals, dreams, accomplishments, etc, it allows your heart to be healed and challenged.  And when your heart is good, it will reflect in everything you do.
