Tangled in the Barbed Wire




As I walked around the bend in the path I saw her. I saw my friend Chris. She was trapped and tangled up in barbed wire. Fighting this barbed wire, trying to free herself from it, only seems to cause her more pain. Cutting her and damaging her arm so much that it makes fighting to be free from it even harder. The barbed wire gouged her arm so horribly that it now dangles at her side swelling, aching and useless...

I stood there, in shock. Wanting to help so bad, reaching out but she is too far away! I can't reach her! All I can do is talk to her, let her know that I am here...too far away to help her get untangled but close enough that she can hear my voice.

I try and encourage her, I raise my voice to travel to her, hoping she can hear my words of encouragement and love. Hoping that somehow, my words can bring some relief to her pain and encouragement to keep working to get untangled. Wishing so badly there was more I could do.


But my words are all I can offer her. As she grows tired of fighting against it and the pain becomes too overwhelming, I try and tell her, "Chris! Look at the beauty around you. Can you take some comfort in the beauty around you?"
and she replies, "Jane, remember, I used to be like you, a photographer! Taking beautiful pictures, seeing the beauty around me and lifting my camera to capture it all. But this barbed wire has torn my arm up so badly that I can no longer even hold my camera."
I realize there is nothing I can do but just stay with her, letting her know how much I care. So I stay, as the sky changes...I stay...

As night comes and the sun sets...I stay...I will not leave her, I will stay until the sun has gone and I will be there in the morning when the sun rises again, to keep by her side as she battles to get free from her bondage of this barbed wire called stage 4 mestatic breast cancer. I will not leave you, I will stay...

Autumn Walk at Alcyon Park

Bookmark and Share


I went for a walk yesterday alone, just me and my camera, at Alcyon Park in Pitman, NJ.


It was a beautiful day for a nature photo walk. I enjoyed every moment! Fall is my favorite time of year.

The colors are peaking just now in New Jersey. Perfect!








Even pealing tree bark is amazingly beautiful to me.



The squirrels were so active, collecting nuts and such.


This made me smile when I walked up the path and saw it. Thank you for leaving me this drawing, whoever you are!

I am always on a look out for that perfect picture. One that tells a story. One that moves me and touches my soul. So profound that it seems to stop time for me. It is such a beautiful moment when you see it and I did. As I turned the corner on the path I saw it!... and you will too...tomorrow. :)

Camden Waterfront {New Jersey Freelance Photographer}

Bookmark and Share

My son Jacob and I volunteered to photograph the Light the Night Walk for the South Jersey chapter of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society last Saturday evening. We got to Campbell's Field early so we went down to the waterfront to take some pictures.







The Camden Waterfront is a cool place for photography. Then, as I look over the rail, into the the river, this is what I saw.

Sad! We have to do better my friends!

Sweet Precious Newborn

I love doing newborn sessions and this little angel was such a content, sweet, sleeping princess. Just a little sneak peek.
