IMMORTALIZING MEMORY...

More than ever, I see my role as a photographer as more than a "picture taker". I am making a permanent investment into the lives of people who allow me into it. For the fourth time...4 times.. I've been asked by family, friends, or loved ones of the deceased for images to REMEMBER their loved ones by.

To be told, that an image that I took is the way that someone wants to REMEMBER a loved one who they will never see again is not taken lightly. It touches my heart. It helps me put things in perspective. It reminds me that this is not just a hobby or a business...it is a contribution to the world. Thank you for asking me, indeed for allowing me, the opportunity to make a permanent investment into your lives. I cherish each and every opportunity.
