Family Photos: Henry, Tricia and the Girls

Henry and Tricia are truly a "power couple" that I have the priveledge of knowing.  Henry is Pastor at Promise Ministries and Tricia is Director and Founder of Studio 149 Dance.  And, oddly enough...even though we are all from Fort Wayne, I have my late mother (from Detroit) to thank for the priveledge of forming a friendship with them.  You see, my mom (a former nurse) rescued Tricia from a music concert where a guy accidently stage dove onto her head.  My mom kept talking about this great girl from Fort Wayne that she met...and low and behold - we met and realized our hubbies were already connected through church youthgroup leadership activites.  What a small world!  I suppose it was fated that we meet one way or another!  : )  I am so thankful they (and their fabulous daughters) are in my life.  What an honor to photograph them!

Just couldn't resist a little brady bunch fun!
