I didn’t know what to post about today since I have an update on my gallery wall (yep, it is finally finished), an update on the Alice in Wonderland graffiti wall (yep, it’s done too) and a special mini-photo shoot from Sunday… but finally decided to go with the Sunday shoot, hope you enjoy. It’s from my heart.
Sunday was a special day. Joe played on the worship team at our new church and I haven’t experienced that blessing for an entire year. I could tell that he was at peace, a humble man with a great gift sharing it and using it the way God intended. It was amazing to watch and our family felt good just watching God shine through him. (my favorite image from the shoot)
I started dating this man in January of 1982. He was in my Spanish class back then and …. well then there was love. It happened within 5 days of our first kiss.
From that day forward he has been my best friend. I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful partner in life. We can face ANYTHING together and believe me we have faced some big stuff and we are still here stronger than ever.
I decided that we should celebrate… it touched me to see God use him and minister through him. I wanted it to last.
We picked an alley in Tacoma and just did all the photos from the one location. Amazing what you can find in just one alley way…
Joe is not one to smile naturally for the camera, so it takes something funny to get that smile out. I had fun finding ways to make him laugh.
Had some fun using different processing techniques too.
Joe, I am so proud of the man you are today.
And I am blessed to have you in my life. Thank you for loving me in a way that every woman dreams of… it’s an incredible feeling.
