There are just a million thoughts I have running through my head as I try to write this post. I just have no idea where to start!

I have had the biggest honor knowing Brittney and Brad for some time now. Back to the days before they were married. Over the course of the years I have photographed them several times, but this one… right here… might be a favorite. These two have been put through some hard times, and if you are lucky enough to know them, you know what I am talking about. They have struggled with something I wish upon no one, and that is having biological kiddos of their own. But even through some of their darkest time, these two have stuck together and become a stronger couple. I really admire the love and the support that they have as husband and wife, along as best friends. For real, they can do ANYTHING together.

So fast forward some time, and I was sitting in my kitchen filling out some paperwork for these two… to become foster parents!! Something, I will be honest, I don’t know enough about. As I was sitting there filling out this paperwork I kept thinking.. they want to know what?! And really, this detailed? I was shocked. Yet as I was filling out all of those detailed questions, it kept coming across my mind that there really is no better couple to do this than them. Their hearts are bigger than anyones I have ever met!! Which bring us to the NOW.

It was my pleasure this week to be able to do a FAMILY session for them with their kiddos. Seeing them as mom and dad is really where they are meant to be. These two littles are SO loved, cared for and just adored. They both look at Brittney and Brad as just what they are, mom and dad. Two words that these two have waited so long to hear. The time that they have together as a family is unknown and can change in a moment. So it was important to them to freeze these memories. To freeze the time that they have with the two littles that gave them the title they have dreamed of. Only God knows where this journey will take them, but like I said above… together they can and will take anything that is put in their path.

Brittney & Brad, you both were glowing during our session. I LOVED seeing you with these kids. Thank you so so much for always trusting me with your amazing story and capturing your life. Love you both! Enjoy your sneak peek.
