In my darkest moments, Jill was a steadfast presence. When my sister faced her battle with overdose, Jill stood by me, offering unwavering support. She was also my ally when I raised concerns about water quality in public discussions. As rumors swam around our family's struggles, Jill quickly defended us, showcasing her loyalty and compassion. This was the essence of who she was—someone who could not bear to see others suffer.
Jill stepped into the frame of my camera, a vision of beauty that I was fortunate enough to capture. Since 2009, I have built a cherished image collection highlighting her vibrant spirit. 2011, I photographed her wedding to Steven Cayton at the stunning Playalinda Beach in Florida. Being selected as their photographer for such a significant day was a true honor. Surrounded by family and friends, they exchanged vows filled with emotion, their joy illuminating the scene. Witnessing their love was a moment I will always treasure. As I reflect on Steven now, my heart aches for him. The challenges he faces must be overwhelming.
Through my lens, I have documented countless beautiful moments with Jill, and this collection stands as a heartfelt tribute to her and her family, ensuring that her memory endures forever.
