The Archer Family Preview

What happens when two really good looking people get married and have kids? Check out the offspring of Darren and Traci...they are gorgeous!
But what did you expect?
Me and Traci have known each other since high school, when her mom and I were in charge of the front desk at Dr. Tregre's office. And now we've got families and kids of our own!

Here's a quick preview! Click the images to see it larger!

Nikhil and Vishal Sneak Peek

Hotter than Hades today in Houston.....but I had to fit in a photo shoot of two of the cutest kids I know. Seeing these two brothers play, makes me super sad that Sanjay doesn't have any siblings. But when they irritated each other and both started screaming....I felt content with my only child :)

These two have personalities as different as their hair...and I would volunteer to squeeze them into my schedule any day!

And add a sweet cousin with his mom and grandma to the bunch....and it couldn't get any cuter!!

Here's a sneak peek....

So grateful am I....

This year I have so very much to be thankful for....
My cup truly runneth over...

I am in a really great place in my life. There have been times in my life when I've really struggled with who I am...and where I am.
But I can sincerely say that I am now content...
I feel loved by my Maker each and every day....and I cherish that feeling...

I am also thankful that I am roommates with my very best friend in this life. Shibu is the most sweet hearted person I have ever known. He fills my life with joy and laughter and love....ten years together and I still run red lights to get home to him...

And the one born of my womb....how that little boy blesses me....
My entire life...I only wanted to be a mother....and the journey that led me there was far from simple.....but worth every single struggle and heartache...
I love every possible thing about Sanjay....what an incredible honor to think that of all the women in the world....God chose me to be his mother...

And my life is filled with an awesome family, precious friends, a great work atmosphere....and even getting to do my hobby as my dream job!!!
Every morning I wake up with my good health I just praise God...He is so good to me.

Wishing all my dear ones a Happy Thanksgiving....hoping you all have much to be grateful for!!

Reg and Jess Sneak Peak

I love this family! They're one of my favorites. I think in my whole life, the person I have talked to the MOST in terms of time is Jessie. She and I spent YEARS of our lives on the phone. She is the perfect soprano to my alto...:) and believe me...we spent much of our time on the phone singing...in parts...oh yah...we were cool...

Jess....I KNOW you're going nuts for a preview from yesterday's photo shoot...cause I'm going nuts to show you one...:)

Thanks for the opportunity!!!

Appachan

On September 8, 2010, my dear uncle left us on earth to go to his heavenly home. We are deeply saddened as a family, as Appachan was the pillar of the Koodathinalil Family.

Upon Appachan's death, we started digging through old photographs to make a slideshow, it was both therapeutic and heart breaking for me.

It occurred to me that these photographs would be the only way I would see Appachan's face here on earth again. These photographs would tell the stories of our lives with him.

What makes me most sad, is that Sanjay will only know him through these photographs. He won't remember how he loved Appachan's lap, and walking around with his cane, and praying every night for Appachan to be healed.

I look forward to the day when I see Appachan face to face again.
In the meantime, I suppose pictures will have to do.

Vishal Baptism

This past weekend, I had the privilege of photographing the baptism of sweet, baby Vishal. He is the son of our dear friends, Abie and Money, and he is gonna break some hearts one day!

I LOVE our baptism service....the congregation thanking God for the mother's safety during her pregnancy and delivery, the family renouncing Satan for their baby, the child being anointed with Holy oil...it is absolutely moving.

And of course....the adorable baby. Vishal looked like a prince in his Indian clothes...and like a little, naked, Cherub when he was placed in the baptismal.

Enjoy the preview!
