I got a call this week that one of my dear clients I have been working with for years passed away suddenly and completely unexpectedly. This beautiful mom put her babies to bed and kissed her husband goodnight like a regular evening not knowing it would be the last time.
Her and I were just texting three days before she passed planning her shoot for this fall, and now she is gone.
Deanna was so loved and cherished by everyone that knew her!
Yall. TAKE THE PHOTOS. I’m not using this as an advertisement for myself. I don’t care who your photographer is or even if you use your phone. Just pinky promise me you’ll take all the pictures all the time. Someday they will be all you have to look back on and none of us know when that someday is. I PROMISE you’ll wish you took more.
I have linked her GoFundMe in my profile if you feel inclined to support her three young girls and husband during this difficult transition.
