All of Gods Children...a new program by MJ Photography

I have been wanting to start a new program..so I am. I wake up daily thanking God for the blessings he has given me. My beautiful healthy family, a church I adore and a business that I still have to pinch myself about. Never would I have thought he would bless me so much in this business. I have had the honor of photographing so many wonderful children and families. My clients become my best friends, their kids become my new sweeties. I am truly amazed at his Grace. IF I was rich (money wise ) :) I would do this for free but since Im not and I have two kids to put through life and a house to pay for and blah blaha I have to charge for this. But there are so many families out there that can not afford me and I know this. So for now on I will offer one session a month as the "All of Gods Children" session. Anyone can nominate a child for this. Children that are sick, fighting battles most adults cant imagine, teens that cant afford to have Senior pics done, a single mom that works hard but could never pay for custom portraits. Yes, all of those people deserve it and I want to hear about them. I will give each a free session, a 4x6 proof of each image and a bunch more of goodies, that I will figure out soon :) SO please tell everyone, send in your nominations and lets share the blessings that God has given us.

I am also offering discounted sessions to anyone that has adopted a new child within a year and would like to capture this time. More info coming on that. I am still offering the free sessions for elderly people also....see old posts for more info.

Birth Photography~ I am working on a new package to offer to expecting parents. The coverage of your entire birth experience, it will be beautiful!! Contact me for more info on that.

Happy Birthday to my sweetie!!!!!!!!!

Happy Happy Happy Birthday to my wonderful, caring, sharing, protecting, brave, loving, sexy,funny, genuine, great daddy~ hubby! i just love him so much it makes me tingle a bit! We have been together since I was 15 years old and married for 10 years. He has always taken such good care of me and the kids and is so supportive of my career and just my happiness. I honestly cant imagine life without him and I thank God every day for giving us each other!!


These pics are from Valentines Day when he was working. He is a firefighter in downtown Nash. so we went to take him some reeses cups and hugs for Vday!

Here are the kids in the tiller box. That is what Mr. Wonderful drives. You know the really long fire trucks with a man driving in the back also. That is a Tiller. That is my babe.
Of course what is a trip to the hall without putting on dads gear!
just some shots...in the bay..
Dad is trying to explain to Phoenix how the oxygen masks work that they wear into the fires. I am in denial that he actually walks into burning bldgs but I know God watches over him and the other brave guys!
This is the stations logo....
So happy birthday babe. We love you. Thank you for being such a great husband and daddy and being a brave protector to all.
