What some of my clients are saying

Dear Bernadine I would like to say how wonderful you are with my Hailey.  When you take our picture you are so loving and patient.  Two year olds don't take a photo shoot as well as 5 month olds, and I'm really thank full that you take the time to get beautiful pictures of us.  You have such creative ideas. I can't wait until you take pictures of my family next month. I know that they are going to be amazing, just like you.  Thanks   Dianna West

Berny,                         Thanks so much for all the pictures you took as well as                         the DVD presentation. I can tell you put much passion                         into your work as well as into that day of the wedding. I                         appreciate your boldness in your faith and how you                         shared your joy on their wedding day. It was a                         tremendous pleasure meeting you.!                                                                                    ~  Stacy Adams

Thank God for a great beautiful day, and all your hard work.                                                                          ~  Nancy Powelson

Dear Bernadine,                                                  March 16, 2009             Thank you for the beautiful work that you have done for us in 2008!  You have certainly been very busy, just with us, but I also know that you are a woman very talented and able to accomplish so much in a 24 hour day!  The Board of Directors, staff, volunteers and quests were impressed at all the photos taken at our yearly fundraiser in April.  There were so many excellent shots as well as a great variety, that we enjoyed selecting the perfect ones for various printings. We also framed and sent one to A.C. Green as a reminder of a wonderful evening!             The New Moms Club classes were such a hit.  Your photographs helped chronicle the classes and serve as a history of the clients that attended, gave birth, and continued on with their lives successfully.  What a joy it was to participate with you in the Christmas Card Photo Shoot of our moms and babies that were born in 2008!  I can’t believe how good the babies were and how quickly you were able to capture each precious shot!  I was thankful that you came with a lot of ideas that you tangibly put into action!  We sent out over 1200 cards to our faithful donors!  Your warmth, compassion and sincere concern for others plays out as you engage with each mom and her baby.  I love to watch the interaction as the women respond to your encouragement. Thank you for always being available and slotting us into you schedule.  You are our favorite photographer!  Sincerely,     Cyndi Bright                Executive Director

The experience I had with My Hearts Desire Photography was nothing short of amazing. I have never liked any photos taken of me. Usually when I am working with a photographer it is a very impersonal experience. They tell you what to do, and it is usually an excruciating experience for me. But Bernadine Lawson made me feel so special. Like I was amazingly beautiful. She chatted with me and laughed with me. It was an extremely personable experience. Best of all, she captured the most striking pictures. I can't tell you how shocked I was to be looking through my pictures and not be able to find ONE that I didn't like! She is able to capture the very essence of emotions in every shot. I will not use any other photographer but her. You are truely amazing at what you do. God has given you a very special gift. And you bless so many with what you are able to do. I feel very fortunate to have you bless me the way that you have.              Sincerely                       Heather Burg

My experience with Bernadine Lawson                                     taking my photos through out the years                                     has been some of my most precious                                     and tender moment of my life. Not only                                     is she truly amazingand totally gifted                                     but her warm and loving personality                                     makes your time with her feel like                                     home. My family and I have some of the most amazing photographs that has brought tears to our eyes and joy to our hearts. We will cherish these CD and DVDs for years to come. Whenever we have family and friends over we love to share or slide show she created for us to music, It takes us back to such a wonderful time spent with grand pappy, and all of our family we love so much. Thank you (My hearts desire Photography)                 -   Christina Martella
