Eleni Harper | Celebrating One Year of Precious Life | Oklahoma City, OK

Lately I’ve been thinking that life feels like it’s speeding by me at 1,000 mph. Some days it seems like I blink and the world has changed around me so quick I can’t hardly remember how I got there. It seems like just yesterday my twin sister and I were meeting our dearest friend and kindred spirit, Emily, at the Baptist Student Union at the University of Oklahoma. Til this day, none of us can really remember when our friendship blossomed…it just did. Pretty much immediately. Things like that aren’t uncommon with kindred spirits…or at least I feel like Anne Shirley of Anne of Green Gables would agree. We were just friends from the beginning. Close ones. We have been roommates, confidants, supporters and laughed enough to make me smile just thinking about it. She is and always will be one of my dearest friends.

With the world moving at lightning speed, this dear friend has gotten married (which I take credit for…I played a significant role in setting her up with her husband which is a funny story if you ever want me to tell you), had a beautiful little girl and just recently celebrated that sweet little child’s 1 year birthday!! Time is racing by! When Emily called to ask me to take pictures of her sweet little Eleni for her first birthday, I was thrilled. How fun to be able to use what I love to document people who I love! It was a strangely cold day in April but we managed to make it work. Eleni Harper has my heart and I LOVED getting to take pictures of this cutie.

Enjoy some of my favs from their family session!
