Okinawa Photographer- Kurashiki Dam - listen. touch. look.

And as the season come and go, 
here's something you might like to know...
there are fairies everywhere under bushes, in the air,
playing games just like you play,
singing through their busy day.
So listen, touch, and look around-
 in the air and on the ground.
And if you watch all nature's things,
you just might see a fairy's wing.

Okinawa Photographer- Lester Naval Hospital - labor of love



It's the most important day of your baby's life. Relish every little moment
of this beautiful journey.



Birth Photography is real. It's powerful. It's emotional. 
It's a promise you'll remember this miracle Forever. A birth in a hospital, natural or c-section - no matter where or how you give birth, the memories of that day will be the most compelling and precious memories you'll ever have, but they can get lost in the fog of labor and emotion. What did you look like as you saw your newborn for the first time? How did your baby look in the instant he was born? Who was in the room? Who smiled? Who cried? Never forget this day. Make sure your baby's very first session is incredible.

It would be an honor to create a photo documentary of your child's birth day.

Okinawa Photographer - Daily Snaps- clearness


The difficulties you meet will resolve themselves as you advance.
Proceed, and light will dawn, and shine with increasing clearness on your path

Today's daily snap is dedicated to my husband. He is the light in my life. I am truly blessed that God brought us together over 13 yrs ago. It still feels like it was just yesterday =) I love you very much. God bless you always.
