A few weeks ago, I was given the opportunity to capture The Hanna Family at one of the most meaningful times in their lives. That Saturday morning, with the Hannas running a little late because of the baby of course (go figure LOL!), I had a chance to do some last minute location scouting in hope of finding a couple of things to enhance the shoot. As I’m walking around the Carter Center looking for maybe a flower or even a really cool textured wall, I notice off in the distance, about 100 yards across the street, a garden.  I knew this was no ordinary garden when I saw a rocking chair, tricycle, baby crib,  little red wagon and even one of those horses….you know, the one with the little springs at the four corners. At this point I’m thinking, REALLY! God I know you told me you would direct my path as long as I acknowledge you, but REALLY!  You lead me to a vintage children garden, marked by a Big Heart at its entrance. (SMH) At this point, I knew there was purpose in what I was doing that day. With the Hannas recently celebrating their two year anniversary (APPLAUSE) and with one in the oven, the dynamics of their family are quickly changing. I knew God wanted to use me and the photos taken that day to encourage their growth as a family and depict the love Donald and Shivaughn share through their unborn son. Take a look at what was captured that morning…
