I intentionally do not add families to my clientele often, I am rarely as proud of my family/children work as I am couples, seniors, and wedding work so I feel I am better off leaving it to the people who truly as soar at it. Then Annie Leibovitz posts her photos of the royal family I think, “I should really photograph more families, Annie does it.” Then I remember I am not Annie and the queen probably won’t call me for her portraits so then I let that dream go again.

While The Wiebe’s story is special and very much their own, I felt a connection when I found out Mr. Wiebe’s brain cancer was back. Diseases are all so different and every situation is different but I knew immediately I wanted to meet them and photograph them because my heart hurts when I hear someone’s daddy is sick.

They were phenomal, laughing and teasing one another they even brought their dog, who was super well behaved and precious in her little coat 🙂
