The Owen Family!

Brande was a friend of mine back when we were in high school.  Like most of my friends from high school, we lost touch. But through Facebook I’ve been able to “reunite” with a bunch of my high school friends!  So it was really cool when she contacted me to photograph her amazing family!   It was great seeing how much Brande’s family has GROWN since high school!  She has 5 fun and incredible kids… each of them cool and special in their own way.  Let me introduce you to Brande and her kids Josh, Ethan, Liana, Macey, and Samuel – the Owen family!

I loved watching Brande interact with her kids. It didn’t take long to see how much love is in this family!

James 1:22-27

But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like. But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.

If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you.

Awesome!

It was great seeing Josh again. Last time I saw him was when he was less than a year old and I was working at the mall! Now Brande can ride on his back! Crazy!
