Making A Real Difference

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

This past July I had the privilege of photographing Meagan Dennison and Jeffrey Navel’s wedding at the always beautiful Cheekwood.  While I have always believed there is great value in what I do for a living, stories like the Dennison’s make me realize the significance even more.  Charlotte Dennison (Meagan’s mother), was battling cancer during the time of Meagan’s wedding.  Fortunately, for Charlotte’s Aflac cancer insurance policy and her Aflac agent she was able to get the care and coverage she needed and was thus able to attend her only daughter’s wedding.  I am so grateful that I was able to bear witness and document this significant time for the Dennison family.  My first hope and prayer is that Meagan and Jeffrey experience a long and happy marriage.  My second hope and prayer is that Meagan’s mother makes a complete recovery from cancer and meet her future grandchildren someday.

Moments photographed are moments remembered!

Sweet Cleo

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

Some of you may be wondering why I have been so neglectful with my blog updates.  Well, it all started with my recent move in January.  It took me a couple of weeks to get all settled in my new place and rest up from the exhaustion that comes with moving.  Just as I was about to dig in and focus on marketing and some other things that had stayed on my to do list far too long, my sweet cat named Cleo (who is about 13yrs. old) ended up getting really, really sick.  Cleo ended up being hospitalized for four nights and had stopped eating and drinking entirely.  Because her liver and gallblader counts were so high the vet thinks that she is afflicted with Fatty Liver Disease.  It literally seemed like one day Cleo was fine and then a few days later almost dead…so it probably comes as no surprise that the last couple of weeks have been exhausting and emotional.  Anyway, I am happy to report that Cleo is slowly coming back to life after being fed via a feeding tube for more than two weeks.  Tomorrow the feeding tube will be removed.  I really hope that Cleo will be able to resume eating normally without to many setbacks.  While the whole deal has been really expensive and I could have bought a Leica for what I have spent in vet bills, she is worth every penny.  Every time I feed my loving and faithful companion I am reminded of the times when she saved me.  I only hope and pray that I can do the same for her this time.  Her light may be a little dim right now but I don’t think it’s time for it to go out just yet…not if I have a say in the matter.

Loving on Sweet Cleo.  She NEVER tires of the attention!
