6 Week Old Baby C.N.

Oh, how much fun I had yesterday! I had the privilege of shooting baby C.N. She is beautiful! I love her striking blue eyes and all of her littleness. Things are starting to get swinging here now! I am very excited, nervous and anxious to start shooting more children! Here is a sneak peak of the session! Thanks for the great day...

The Name

Many of you know that I have been wanting to find a name so suiting for my photo business, but I struggled for quite sometime. I originally started with Captured Moments Photography - Capturing Moments to Last a Lifetime. It was a great name, but I found more inspiration for the name I was searching for. My business is named after my son, Thomas Richard Armstrong. He was delivered at 18.5 weeks pregnant, miscarried November 3rd, 2007. Although those 18 weeks seem short, I felt I knew him, and one thing is for sure, his life has surely changed me. God has been good, through these hardships. One day, I will see my Baby Thomas again. Full of life that I only saw through an ultrasound and felt moving in me. Some days are very tough, but God helps me through. Psalm 38 has been a piece of scripture that is my rock, "God is close the broken hearted..." That is me. So, part of keeping Thomas alive, I named my photography business after him. I feel it is quite appropriate...being that my most favorite subject to photograph are babies. Capturing Moments to Last a Lifetime though, is still my "theme"!
Where my baby, and others babies who have been lost through similar situations, are laid to rest. A beautiful memorial, for so many beautiful babies.My budding photographer took this picture on our way home from our first visit to Thomas' Memorial. She was so excited, and in all honesty, it didn't turn out so bad. The angle of the picture was pretty cool, although, I don't believe she did that on purpose!

Getting Closer

I am oh so close to getting this business truly up and running. My blog, a soon to be website, and I am officially set for business. My dream, and it is a big one, is being fit together like a puzzle, one piece at a time. I hope you enjoy your time here, and come back often.

Oh, yes. Please leave a comment...I love to see when someone visits!
