Angela contacted me about a session in her home a few months ago. It’s the type of thing that makes my heart jump for joy because I love more than anything capturing everyday beautiful mess. The mundane all mingled with the holy and recorded for the remembering.

Little Chloe was the heartbeat of this family. So many times we all just sat and laughed at her antics, our cheeks aching and our hearts bursting with the intensity of joy.

At the time of our session, Chloe had been in her forever home for just over 4 months.

When I asked Angela the story she wanted this session to tell she said this:

“I want it to speak of the joy of being adopted into God’s family. How being called His own is the best gift.”

And little Chloe’s antics told this story with clarity.
