click here for the scoop!
i got called to shoot for nilmdts
yesterday at about 4pm. so i packed
up and headed downtown to abbott to
photograph 33 week old elizabeth...
she had passed around 3pm.
i just felt this calm come over me when
i entered their room. everyone was there
but dad. he came up moments after i
arrived. oddly, i saw him earlier near the
parking garage with a woman's purse
in his hands and when he came into
the room i saw the purse and i said,
"i should have followed YOU up here!"
(i had gotten turned around and lost)
it sort of broke the mood for a moment.
i got right to work. i photographed for
about 45 minutes, and quietly slipped out.
i feel so blessed to be able to perform
this service. most people say they couldn't
do it. i'm not certain why God chose me
to come along side this organization
but i do know that He gives me great
strength, poise and even dialogue that
is unmatched for any other occupation.
God, hold this family close while they grieve
the horrific loss of their daughter, elizabeth.
cherish each moment as if it were your last.
embrace change, challenge, defeat, joy...
it is all in His hands. you are alive today! :)
