I had the wonderful opportunity to do a quick shoot of Werner and Jeanine with their newborn son, Casper. Initially Jeanine was unsure if her home is suited for such a shoot, but amazing to me to just see again how one nice feature or clean wall, with a bit of natural light, can be more than sufficient.

I love their images, just because of the fact that it is something unique that developed out of what we had available and in the end a good image is created when it gives a powerful message…like the testimony in these images. I had the privilege to photograph two people in deep dependency on God’s Spirit and revealed Word, to gain their strength and wisdom for the new road ahead. Werner and Jeanine, may you find a journey of endless sanctification in Christ, strength in His truth, and a joy and hope in Him that overwhelms the daily challenges of raising children for Christ’s glory! Lots of love, Lucinda

Unless the Lord builds a house,
its builders labor over it in vain;
unless the Lord watches over a city,
the watchman stays alert in vain.
In vain you get up early and stay up late,
working hard to have enough food—
yes, He gives sleep to the one He loves.
Sons are indeed a heritage from the Lord,
children, a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the sons born in one’s youth.
Happy is the man who has filled his quiver with them.
Such men will never be put to shame
when they speak with their enemies at the city gate – Psalm 127:1-5
