Kim Ponsky Photography in Action

This past weekend I had the privilege of traveling to Washington, DC to reunite with a family I photographed 5 years ago.  We met up again for their updated family photo session at the Bishop’s Gardens at the National Cathedral.  Check out this video of our session!

Amazing work.

Words CANNOT describe this. All I can say is that God knows how to reinforce his purpose for our lifes. He’ll bring people into our lives who are going through various trials to remind us that everything that we do here on earth is for HIS glory.

by Maanaa on September 23, 2012

I am a fellow Mocha Mom and I just had to comment about this absolutely priceless and beautiful video tribute. I cried experiencing the beauty of this family, and those darling girls and of a mom and wife who is gone too soon. I cried because I have children the same age and can only imagine how difficult it was for her as a mom to know that she would not live to see them grow up. My heart and prayers go out to her husband and girls and to all who knew and loved this lovely lady. Thank you for sharing just a brief glimpse of their love and family.
