Family Portraits at Balboa Park: Steve, Jen, Graham, & Tait

“He gives strength to the weary

and increases the power of the weak.

Even youth grow tired and weary,

and young men stumble and fall;

but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles; 

they will run and not grow weary,

they will walk and not be faint. “  Isaiah 40:29-31

I had goosebumps listening to six-year-old Graham say those words as we walked around Balboa Park. He mentioned how much he likes going to Sunday school and learning Bible verses so I asked him his favorite. Isaiah 40, he said. Isn’t that impressive? His whole family is so sweet, I felt so blessed to be around them!

This is Tait. Her favorite verse is Philippians 4:13 – “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

I love their outfits: coordinated but not too matchy-matchy! :)

When I shoot family portraits, I always try to get a photo of mom and dad alone, too. It’s because most couples I know who have kids rarely get photos of done of just the two of them.
