Ruth

    What a perfect session to start out the new year.  I woke up feeling miserable, 

but the adrenaline of photographing lovely people kept me going.  

This is my dear, dear friend and her parents.  Ruth has endured the cruel and relentless battle of cancer with a radiant smile on her face.  She is such an amazing example of positive energy, love, and acceptance.  

Her competitive side came out while playing this game.... 

Ruth is making a quilt for one of her granddaughters.  

She hopes to be able to make one for all her grandkids. 

Becky rubs her mother's aching hands daily.  

Seriously.  Could they be any cuter? 

Married almost 40 years.  Such a beautiful couple. 

Thank you Ruth, Mike, and Becky for letting me come into your home, move around your furniture and wall art (did you get that picture re-hung straight?) and capture a glimpse into your life and feel of your love.  xoxo.  Emily
