When my family first moved to Baton Rouge, LA at the end of summer 2013, I needed to rebuild my business in a new city. I ran a special for Fresh48 sessions and April Blackburn was the first to reply and book a session with me. April’s session really stands out because I got lost and ended up being late! I was so stressed and worried; this was my first client in a new town and I was screwing it up! The session went great and April loved her images. I also know April through our local online Facebook groups and attending several of our Baton Rouge ICAN meetings together. See her Fresh48 session here: mydoulaheart.com/alainafresh48/
This past weekend, the Blackburn family received some terrible news. On August 21, sweet Laina, was diagnosed with Pre B Cell Leukemia. She is undergoing treatment at Children’s Hospital of New Orleans. They live about 2 hours from Children’s Hospital New Orleans, no family locally and Laina has an older brother as well. Their needs will be significant and they will need support and prayers.
