We were able to spend another Quick Shoot session with the Albritton family. Anne decided at the last minute to add her daughters into the line-up and I was bursting at the seams to shoot them! This requires a little information to try and explain exactly how I feel about these girls…

Amy and Sarah are almost identical to my little sister Maureen and me. Amy, being the oldest, is really outgoing and silly (dare I say flighty?), while Sarah is quieter with a huge silly streak once she’s comfortable with her surroundings. They’re both hysterical, you’re just going to notice this fact in Amy as soon as she hits a room, then figure it out with Sarah once you’ve hung out with her a bit. This is EXACTLY how it was with Maureen and me. She was the shy one and I was the in-your-face one (dare I say flighty?). But together, were our best.

My own sister passed away six years ago last month. And even though we never had the luxury of a photo shoot together, what I was able to do with with these girls made me feel like I was taking pictures of Maureen and me. The smiles, the hugs, the goofing off… even the moments that reflected their heart toward worship (which, in her last couple of years, was Maureen’s favorite thing to do). I hope they treasure these days together… and I pray they have many, many more years of hand-holding, kluztiness and Spiritual growth.
