Two years ago Wednesday, my friend Elaini went on a journey to raise money $50,000 for orphans. Well, she outdid herself and reached over 70 GS. That’s a heck of a lot of money. I’m so proud of my “bosom friend” of over 15 years, we have been through every season of life together and now to celebrate her 2nd anniversary of “100 days for orphans” we did a special anniversary shoot:

she is stunning.

I just had to share this wonderful note from Katie after our shoot together and she saw her collection for the first time:

I am completely taken back by these photos!  I have never met a photographer with such vision, talent, and attention to detail.  I have been told that photographing curvy girls is very difficult but you posed me and captured me in such a way that I actually feel proud of my curves.  I learned so much during our session, not only about posing but also about myself.  It was such a pleasure working with you and it most certainly wont be the last!  Thank you for this incredible gift!
