Now visit the blog of my sweet friend Shalonda Chaddock | Chubby Cheek Photography | Northwest Houston TX Photographer. Her images and words are always so memorable and her darling girls remind me so much of their mama.
i love that our daughter’s share a birthday…and that they are the same age even! such a beautiful but bittersweet day. the snow photographs are gorgeous…can’t wait for you to photograph our family this summer!
It’s so beautiful so read how each of your girls are their very own person. Both so unique yet so love and so special. What a gift it is for them to have each other and truly a gift for you as well. You are such a wonderful mama I can tell every time I read your words.
amy you have such a beautiful heart. those girls are blessed beyond measure to have you as their momma. I am blessed beyond measure to call you friend:)
first, before the letters, i shook my head with the beauty of these snow images you just overwhelm us all with, and then laughed a bit because you must be getting a little tired of it 
but wow, truly. wow. they are as magic as your love. and these letters are drenched in love. it all comes from the same place but it lives so differently, it mingles with them, who they are, and changes you too. i hear that in your voice. and it must be such a beautiful challenge, to take that pause with each of them, to really pay attention to what special things they are telling you about themselves. you are as lucky as they are, amy. xoxo
amy…i am in tears…i am speechless…i am in awe…i love the difference that you show of them, i love that you love them separately, you love the together and the three of you are pretty much one big giant heart in my mind hahaha. i am taken back but the way that you are able to show their individuality, without even having to read your words, its truly amazing. it takes one special mama to take the time to see what makes each of them “them”…you are a beautiful light my friend
What special words for your very special girls. <3
Amy, the images gave me a lump in my throat before I even read the words – they are 6! And they are growing and changing and so different and I love how you have taken this time to celebrate all of that, and to be thankful for all that brings – these are wonderful treasures x
Oh Amy – you continue to amaze me with each letter and with each image you share. Your little ones are so lucky to have these letters to look back on later in life. I’m sure I’ve said it before, but they will cherish them forever. What a beautiful gift to give them.

Oh Amy, you write so beautifully! What a wonderful boy with such personality and expression <3
Oh my, he has such an expressive face. Adorable! <3
He is such a little cutie Amy! I am in love with your conversions and how you capture your children. Great words to inspire with as well.
such a precious little boy. It would be so wonderful if we mama’s could protect them from all the pain that life throws our way…
[...] please check out my beautiful friend and amazing photographer Amy Lucy’s letter…here! [...]
Over the last couple years, I have been writing letters to my children. Through my letters I am able to permanently record my thoughts, share my love, and teach important lessons. At first I thought of these letters as “gifts” to my children; now I realize they are “gifts” to me that I will cherish forever. I wanted to share this project with other photographers and bloggers, and be inspired, in turn, by the way they express their love for their daughters through imagery and word. I am humbled that several amazing women chose, without hesitation, to join me in this project. On the 25th of each month, we will share our images and letters. Each photographer will link to another, and we will form a small circle of links. We may live in different places and lead very different lives, yet there are several things that bond us: we are all photographers, we are all mothers, and we all love our daughters.
Please continue on to the blog of my dear friend Amy Grace of A Beautiful Life Photo to see what she has to share with us this month. When I look at photos of Amy’s beautiful daughter, I can see so much of her mother. When I read her words, I am always transported into her world.

Your light shines brightly every single day!
AMY! what a beautifully perfect way for me to end our circle, as yours is the last letter i got to and it was so fitting and perfect and beautiful almost as if you were speaking to me! wow you AMAZE me sweet friend! your light is bright my friend and i am thankful to see it xoxo
Amy, I don’t think this could be any more beautiful!
Beautiful. I needed to read paragraphs 4 and 5, for myself. What a lovely, lovely letter.
the way you tied it all together…that all they have to do is look in the mirror. i love it. i had this sense when i was reading your letter that you are just overwhelmed with loving them. all of those beautiful descriptions alone are just laden with love. your images are always this perfect escape. perfect, but with heart too. how fitting that there mommy is a master of light. they will understand everything you are giving them in these lines, as they get older, and see that you are special to them, but special to the world, too <3 xo
Your light shines brightly my friend, and is reflected back at you doubly by those beautiful girls of yours. Your words are just beautiful
Sigh..Amy…your letter is just so beautiful. The way you portrayed them as light, how true is that and it couldn’t be more perfect. And of course, the light in your pics makes me uuuh and aaah. I really love the closing of your letter. It’s such a simple sentence but a very strong one!! xoxo
So, so beautiful Amy! I remember when we had our conversation about my mother calling me her ray of sunshine… Gorgeous images AMY!!
Your photography is stunning and I love how you incorporate letters to your children!

I always look forward to your letters, Amy. I just sit here in complete awe of them and soak them up from the very first letter to the very last. This one’s no exception. Reading it gave me such a strong sense of your beautiful boy and all of his beautiful sides.
So beautiful, Amy. I love the way the light use matches his mood, and your words.
You have such a beautiful gift for saying just the right things to your children, for expressing just perfectly what they mean to you – I can feel so much of the sweet boy Evan is from your words
so so lovely. quiet and heartfelt. you both have such a beautiful soul…it’s easy to see through your images and words, Amy.
We loved this book as well and I remember reading to them as babies (especially my 7 year old) not being able to relate to the ‘I love you running and walking’ … I couldn’t imagine my baby doing those things and now! You’re right, there are so many MORE sides. Wonderful letter, Amy, and wonderful images. <3
Beautiful words of your perfect little man <3 It's hard to believe that they grow from the babies you first meet and will one day be a fully grown man. How? <3
HAha! I remember when you posted that conversation on Facebook and I thought to myself: “What a sweet little boy, full of such love for both his sisters!” Your images are fantastic and I’m sure there will be more sides to be discovered in the future.
i absolutely adore this.
stopped by to see what you’ve been up to, and, amy, i could spend endless hours staring at your gorgeous images and taking in your heartfelt words. i love your perspective and how i can see a bit of you in each of your photos. <3
