in Children,Families

Raye,
I don’t know why I’m surprised or what I expected, but again, you captured our kids like no other photographer/artist ever could. Even with the crankiness and cold, you brought out the best in our family. I know I’ve told you a thousand times, but I am so thankful to have found you 3.5yrs ago when we first adopted our newborn baby. And now, I have gotten to share two other adoptions with you…we are blessed. In life. In love. And in photography. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Love,
Lyns (and the rest of the rowdy bunch ;)

The Taylor family from Jonesboro, AR seems to grow with every session – both in number and in love.

Absolutely gorgeous!! I LOVE this family’s story as told through your images, Raye. They so beautiful together, and I love how this family has chosen *you* to document their love.

I’ve been watching this family grow through your lens for a few years now and fall a little more in love with them each time. Such a beautiful family full of love… you captured them perfectly once again. :)

Absolute perfection… I adore these images so deeply so I can only imagine how much the family treasures them. I feel like I kind of know them because we have seen them grow through your lens.

I haven’t visited your blog for ages. So I am smacking myself on the hand now, because this is what I am missing out on. Heart-stoppingly beautiful imagery. Your photographs are the most gentle, beautiful reminders of what is important, in life and in photographing life. A stunning family, so filled with love, perfectly photographed. Wow.
