Looking back on 2009

I started looking back on all of my 2009 weddings and sessions and I just want to say a HUGE thank you to all of my clients and friends who supported me in 2009. I've grabbed some 30 plus favorites, but I want you to know that I have 100s. I would list all of them, but the dishes in the sink are calling my name and they HAVE to get done :)Enjoy some of my favorites from 2009 and again, thank you all so much for a blessed year.

You can also see some of my most favorites in the flash header at the top of my blog! And feel free to take a look through my archives of 2009.

Corrie and Grant.New Mexico Wedding Photographer

So let me just tell you, maybe refresh your memory and mine as well as to why I love my job. This wedding was all about family, and having God centered around their relationships. Every word that was breathed, every sweet touch they gave as everyone was greeted in the door was with God's love. It was sweet, and gentle, and peaceful.I love my job because I am introduced to some amazing people and might not have met them otherwise. Through all of my weddings and sessions I feel like I've gained a friend and not just for that moment, but for life. And I thank God for those opportunities. I know without a doubt that God has favor on sweet Corrie and gentle Grant. You can see it all over their faces and this my friend is what a marriage is all about. Enjoy the favorites from this November wedding and have a Happy New Year!
