Jackson & Layton

You meet people throughout your life. You meet people at school. You meet people at your workplace. You meet people where you live. You meet people at church. Some people are there just for a season. And others stick around.
Let me just say that I am horrible at keeping up communication. If it weren't for Facebook, I wouldn't have talked to 99% of the people I grew up and went to school with. But I have this friend that I met while we both worked at a local bookstore. We would work together every Saturday night. We had a blast! We would hurry and do all of our work so that we could just sit back and catch up on each others lives. She was in college and I was planning my wedding. So we both always had lots to tell each other. Well, we both moved on to other jobs. But every few months I would get a phone call from my friend and we'd catch up. My friend eventually married and had a baby. I went to see her a couple months after her little boy was born. I had just gotten my first DSLR and carried it with me everywhere I went. I took it out and snapped a few shots. I emailed them to my friend. Next thing I know she is telling me that she wants me to come take pictures of her son every month for the first year of his life. And she wants to pay me!! Holy cow!
I owe a huge thank you to my friend who trusted me and encouraged me. Thank you so much for giving me the push I needed.

And I am thrilled that she has had her second child! So here are some pictures of today's shoot of Jackson (big brother) & Layton (little brother).
