Jimenez Family

I have had the pleasure of photographing this family several times. I've said it before, one of my favorite things about doing this job is getting to know the families. I love connecting with them, watching them grow, and seeing their successes. No more evident than in this precious group. Diego is nothing short of a daily miracle. He wasn't supposed to make it through his first few days of life, he wasn't supposed to make it to see his first birthday, and he certainly defied the odds making it to his 4th. He is so wonderful. For those of you who know me well, you know I am very touchy having no personal boundries. Diego talks to me, in his way, when I get down in his face and put my hand on his chest.....makes me melt!

As if that weren't enough, I get to play with his little brother, Cristian. The curls, the eyes, the smile....melt! Crystal (mama) is one of those people that I could play with all day long. I love talking and laughing with her. Eddy is that dad that smooches on his kiddos everytime he picks them up. I love watching that. They are so strong and inspire me by what they do daily. There is nothing more powerful than the love of a parent.
