Photographing the lovely Ana Raines was one of the highlights of the season this year for me. Not only is she stunningly beautiful, she is precious through and through. Ana is a dancer and I first got to know her that way, through our dance ministry at church. When I first saw her dance, I had to remind myself to keep breathing. She is just that beautiful when she is in worship. I fell in love with her sweet spirit and delicate features at first glance.
As I have come to know her I can see those first impressions were in true. Ana is genuine and kind, she loves her family and friends deeply, and is unashamed about her love for God. She has a deep beauty that generates from within.
Thank you Ana, for a lovely day with you. I am so proud to know you and I believe God has great things in store for your life, lovely dancer. Never stop dancing for your King.
Isaiah 61:1-3 ~ “He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.”
