This evening, surrounded by her family, Vicki Whipps very peacefully slipped away from us and into the arms of Jesus.

“Well done, good and faithful servant.” Mathew 25:21a

And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory’s side, and
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!

BAREFOOT PHOTOGRAPHY IS LOOKING FOR A FEW MODELS!

Models will need to be available Thursday December 31st morning to early afternoon. Model releases will be required. Model release will include permission to use the images and video from the sessions. Please email Kimberly for further details.

Participants will receive a complimentary 8×10 portrait.

MODELS NEEDED –

Pregnancy model I need a woman who is between 34-38 weeks along for some maternity images. I would prefer both parents to be involved, but that is not mandatory.

Newborn Model Looking for a baby who is under a week old (Can do up to two weeks). So basically, if you are preparing to go to the hospital in the next few days, I need you!

Sitter Model I need a baby (prefer a little boy) who is about 5-7 months old. Must be sitting up unaided but not yet crawling.

If you or someone you know fits the bill on any of these, and you are available on December 31st from 9-2pm, please contact me as soon as possible. Thank you!!
