It is a rare moment when James comes home and says he has just had the best photo session ever. He kept going on and on about this couple that came in for their 60th wedding anniversary photos. He was so taken with them that he even had Ivy come out and meet them. At the young age of 79 Don is a full time brick layer that had to take time off in order to come in for their photographs. Bernice is dedicated to sending care boxes to soldiers deployed over-seas. You can hear the passion she has for this cause when she talks about what she does. At the time most people think of slowing down and retirement, the Anderson's are so full of spunk and zest for life it reminds you of a young couple newly married. I finally got to meet the Andersons when they came in to order their photographs. I'm so glad I had this opportunity to meet them and James was right, they are an amazing couple. Their energy definitely came through in the photographs from their session. These are some of our favorites.
I can only hope that in 40 years our marriage will be as strong, fun, playful and loving as what I witnessed today. If not I just need to take Bernice's advice and sock him in the chin. Thanks for the inspiration Don and Bernice. -Raynell
