In Loving Memory

Did you ever hear a song and have it bring you right back to a moment in time?  For me, that happens alot... Music is a big part of my life.  As I watched a tivo-ed Oprah this morning my baby (who, GASP is 1 week from being ONE!) stopped playing to watch Bon Jovi sing "Living on a Prayer"...
For me that song is one that I couldn't listen to for a long time because of where it brought me back to....
I can still picture clear as day....

(p.s. this video is even better )
Today, I sat with my baby and watched and listened and smiled.
Michael was an amazing person. He left us way too soon and we miss him everyday.
Living on a Prayer leaves me with many memories of Michael which brings me to this blog that's long overdue.
I have had these photos and was asked to not blog until after the holidays because they were a surprise.
I haven't yet because I just didn't know what I would say. After this morning, I just had to share...

                                                                 this is Michael Ryan.


He is the nephew of Michael and his name sake. He is precious. There was just something about him, he stayed so calm, so peaceful while I photographed away. I was so glad his parents choose me to capture this moment in time. It was an honor.











OK, I was partial, took almost 200 photos...these were a few of my favorites.
In dedication to an amazing man, he always knew how to make people smile.
 his memory still does. 
I love you and miss you much Michael.
