Published in Good Housekeeping Magazine!

January 11, 2011

This was so exciting. I recently photographed a beautiful family who was featured in Good Housekeeping Magazine. The Cheney Family story is honest and inspiring as they face some of the challenges and blessings of adoption, and all that it entails!

I didn’t even realize that the issue was out in the market yet. I was actually standing in line at the grocery store and I noticed Gwenyth Paltrow on the cover. Then I realized it was the FEBRUARY issue. The one issue I’ve been waiting for!!

I will say it was quite a moment to grab the magazine and flip through it with the same excitiment that a child has on Christmas morning. I think I did a tiny Whoo-hoo when I saw it. The ladies in front of me turned around to stare…of course I explained why I was so excited! One lady even bought a copy – wasn’t that sweet?

This was my 2nd paid publication and I’ve gotta say… it felt really great! I feel like it was just a gift from God… a wonderful opportunity, and I am truly grateful!

So here’s a look at the family photo they used for the article.

    This is so cool, Pati! I have had the privilege of teaching all 3 of these wonderful kids and they, and their story, are really something special. I’ve never met the parents, but am so grateful for people like them who open their hearts and their homes to kids like them. Congratulations to you on this amazing achievement – I’m so proud of you! <3
