I met Soren and her lovely parents downtown to play at Millennium park ( and of course to take some pictures). We played in the green grass, visited the Cloud Gate and then wandered through the purple in the Lurie garden. I hadn’t seen Soren in about a year and a half. I love walking along with families as time goes on. Most of all, this family matches up hard core to my belief that kids are kids and to capture them as such. They are committed to remembering Soren at each stage just as she is. They want to capture her beautiful personality through modern imagery. Knowing their philosophy and trust in me, releases creative freedom and we come back with inspired images. That morning was truly a treat. I hope to catch up with the whole family in the fall!!


Where’s Soren?









Until next time!!
