Expecting | Anderson Family

FILED IN: Family, People

The golden hour + dear friends + God’s grace.. I nearly cried on several occasions while taking these photos.

Dan and Kimberly are so dear to me. Naturally, I was ecstatic when Kimberly invited me to have a part in documenting baby Benjamin’s growth and soon enough his entrance into this world!

This is why I love photography – because not only does it showcase beauty but it celebrates life in such a real way..such a palpable way, more so than any other art form.

Thank you two for a lovely evening of chasing light and catching up on life! I cannot wait to meet little Benjamin!
