Life is full of precious moments. They can be big milestones such as the birth of a new baby or just a random act of kindness like a simple hello to a stranger. When I was contacted by a mom about doing her daughter's first communion pics I was thrilled. Shy and timid at first, she was a little apprehensive about having her pics taken, but after a few corny dad jokes and a round of "Simon Says" (which I have renamed "Keith Says") this little angel was enjoying every minute. We did this shoot behind Mission San Jose and the feeling of Holiness and Love was all around us. One of the sweetest, most touching pics is one where she is holding a picture of her Godfather and herself as a baby at her baptism. Her Godfather has passed away, but the love and memories are still there alive and well in her heart, mind and soul.
Take a minute today to appreciate your life's precious moments, they are all around us. From a simple cup of coffee, a phone call with a close friend, the smile on your child's face, or even the present moment while your reading this, appreciate them all.
