Wedding/Anniversary Date: November 22, 2019 How long have you been together? Married 10 years together 13 Tell me the story of how you met: My husband and I met when I was 15 and became friends with some of his friends. We both dated other people and never had an attraction for each other until we were older we ran into each other at a get-together. To be honest, the first time he asked me for my phone number I told him, "no." A year and half later or so we ran into each other at another get-together and finally went on our first hang out together a couple weeks later. We have been inseparable since. Never would have thought that the guy I didn't give my number to would be my partner for life and dad of my 3 kids. What do you love most about your partner? He makes me laugh. Even at his corny dad jokes. Do you have kids? if so how many? 3 kids Do you celebrate your anniversary? yes How do you get through the tough times together? We get mad, we figh

This family touched my heart when I came across a post from Susana on Facebook about her daughter Aaliyah's first chemo treatment. We somehow became friends through mutual friends on FB but I didn't know her before that post. Her 2 year old Aaliyah was diagnosed with Leukemia just around Thanksgiving.  I instantly felt I needed to contact her. I don't know what they are going through, I can only imagine.  I do know that families often get so busy with medical appointments and the stress of fighting illnesses that it can be hard to do regular family things like have your photos taken or just have fun together. I wanted to give them the gift of family photos so that they could have these now. Things are looking really good so far and their family is optimistic and hopeful. They are ready to fight and win. I pray for their strength and for Aaliyah's health to improve.  Susana is starting a journal and just set up an account on caring bridge. To follow their battle

I felt the need to post a blog with a collection of some of my favorite images from 2013. I've had the opportunity to photograph so much love, so many smiles, so many firsts, so many beautiful weddings, new babies, kisses, laughter, tears and more. I have had the opportunity to meet some amazing people and build new friendships. I've had the opportunity to snuggle some tiny new babies and capture them at just a couple days old. I'm so blessed to be able to document people's lives. I just want to say THANK YOU to all my past and current clients. THANK YOU for allowing me to capture your life in 2013. Here are some of my favorites from the year --since I rarely blogged... I hope you enjoy them!   Tara Thackeray One Love Photography by Tara:: Vancouver, WA https://www.facebook.com/OneLovePhotographyByTara http://onelovephotographybytara.com/
