Happiness is...

This is my sister.  I love photographing her.  She is beautiful, she is tall and she is so funny.   I could seriously dish on this girl.

Celeste was the cutest girl growing up.  She was always referred to as the "beautiful one" by my neighbor.  I was referred to as the "smart one."  I guess I didn't have the looks but at least I wasn't the "fat one."

She was asked to Prom no less than 4 times in one year.  I think she went to three of four different proms in one year.  There was also this guy whom liked her so much, he gave her not a dozen but 100 roses to ask her to prom.  

She drives like a grandma.  This is not an insult, by the way.  She has never been in an accident and never, NEVER gotten a ticket.  I got three last year, and one last week.  Being a grandma driver has its benefits.

She has three boys whom I love as my own.

She is married to Brian, the only man who is good enough for her.  He didn't even have to bribe her with roses, 100 of them.  They are a great couple.

 When you are born, you don't get to chose where you go.  You don't get to chose whom is in your family and you don't get to chose whom goes first.  If you believe any of that.  I am so thankful everyday, each and every day for this gorgeous girl sharing parents with me.

 I loved shooting your family Celeste.  Thank you for making this event an epic experience.

We shot our families in tandem and we should do it again, really soon.  Really like next year.
