I joyfully serve as a photographer for The Littles Heroes Project

Taken from their website: The Littlest Heroes Project is a non-profit based organization founded in January 2008, made up of professional photographers nationwide that provide free photo sessions to our nations Littlest Heroes. This is our way of giving back and taking a stand for these children who sometimes feel forgotten because of their illnesses. We are here to let them know that they are heroes to many, and to share their inspirational stories and photos with the world.

Tonight I met one of the sweetest kids ever! It all started with a soccer ball and a smile. Seriously, the first thing he said to me was READY, SET, GO as he kicked a soccer ball my way! Mr S was born at 26.5 weighing 2 lbs and 13 ozs. He stayed in the NICU for nearly 6 months. He has had countless surgeries in his short lifetime and currently has a trach do to his dependency on the vent in the NICU. The road for their family has not been an easy one but the sweet smile and joy for life that Mr S offers should remind us all to enjoy each day we are given.  I thoroughly  enjoyed spending sometime with Mr. S and his mom yesterday as we walked around downtown Louisville for their session. Mr S was full of smiles and totally knew how to work it for the camera!  I have so many favorites but really had to narrow it down for the blog! Enjoy your sneak peak!

He discovered his shadow tonight…

Thanks for looking!

Yesterday I had the opportunity to do my first session with three children and their families from Mended Little Hearts (http://www.mendedhearts.org/mlh/frame-mlh.htm). The three “heart” kiddos were an absolute blast to photograph! Seeing their smiling faces reminded me that life is precious and is meant to be enjoyed! I was so blessed by God to be able to do this session and I wanted to share their beautiful smiling faces with you! Thanks again for the opportunity to photograph your kiddos!!

Enjoy your sneak peak…
