I didn’t know if I could get through taking his pictures without breaking down, but I did. I have known this young man since the day he was born. I spent most of my first pregnancy taking care of him everyday. I love him like he is my own. This was emotional for me for several reasons. He lost his dad two years ago as the result of a terribly tragic car accident. A HUGE loss. Thank God we have Zachary. David lives in him. There were moments when I could see David and hear his giggle. Something I had forgotten. I am very proud of this young man, he has been through so much. He is strong, agile, smart, kind, sensitive, gifted, a dare-devil. On this day he parallel parked for the first time. I was amazed, it was perfect! Had a blast with him.
Z- you have the whole world at your feet. You can do and be ANYTHING you want to be. Take advantage of your God given freedom and fly.
He and Ace.

He’s a renegade football player too.

And somewhat of a monkey. He climbed this like it was nothing.




This is one of my favorites.

Second St. Bridge



Important phone call. It was Saturday night. Plans need to be made.


Another favorite!



Very slow shutter speeds make for interesting shots. LOVE LOVE LOVE it!




He owned this moment.

Got us there and back safe and sound.

Go get em’ Zachary!
