Anne and Hannah | By Michelle

This is a different kind of love story and one that made my own heart become overwhelmed with emotion.  Lets start by saying Anne contacted me months and months before this shoot actually took place.  I received a message from her back in the winter and she was wanting to have some warm weather photos taken of her and her granddaughter.  I immediately thought thats something new and have never shot a grandmother and a granddaughter before.  Ironically the day I was to shoot their session I had to cancel because my own beautiful granddaughter was being born.  Of course Anne was super understanding about it and knew this was going to be a special shoot once I got to shoot it.  However it took us several tries after our initial cancellation due to weather.  I think it was worth the wait!  Of course I instantly saw the love Anne had for her precious granddaughter.  It was a new love I have never photographed before and of course a brand new love for me with Posey now in my world.  I knew instantly that I  would want my very own Photo shoot with my first granddaughter and what a beautiful keepsake for that granddaughter someday!  Oh how I would love to have something besides some polaroids of me and my nanny!  As I talked with Anne I learned that she was diagnosed with cancer and my first thought was oh my that is so sad.  Which of course it is but what I really learned was this lady knows how to live and she is loving life and she is fighting her battle so strong and courageously.  She is having treatments and still works a full time job.  WOW! is what I say to that,  I think Anne is way tougher and stronger than cancer is and I pray she continues to get healthy!  I know there is a very special trip planned with miss Hannah this month.  Anne and Hannah and Hannha’s mommy enjoy Disney I know it will be a trip of a lifetime.  So heres a peek at an amazingly beautiful love and one that is not often documented.
