it’s been awhile since i got to take pictures of a little little baby and i have to be honest, i was kind of nervous going into this session. thankfully, this dude was a perfect gentleman. he slept a little and then was awake a lot…he even obliged his affectionate sister and stayed still while she showed him a little love.
you may remember this family from a shoot we did while breana was pregnant. we had planned then to do some pictures right after their little boy was born, but i got a call the day we were scheduled and they told me tudor’s mom had suddenly passed away. he had to travel home to romania immediately and was gone for two weeks. i was so sad to hear this news as we had just been talking a little bit about his mother when i had been with them a couple of months before. in the midst of all of this, a series of verses kept coming to mind that are found in the bible in the chapter of isaiah:
“He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted…to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.” to see this beautiful little boy and the joy that he brings to this grieving family…i can’t help but feel like he’s a living testimony to this verse. not to minimize the sadness, but to know that even in sorrow there is hope. and new life.
you guys are an amazing family – i’m so blessed to know you. tudor: your mom would be so proud to see the father you have become.

You are wonderful together and, like our traditional greeting, I wish you: when you’ll be worse so it will be like now. ( I think this translate is right and I hope to understand what I wanted to say because to translate our greetings in another language is very hard) Love from grandma from Romania and from all of us. Bye!
