It’s hard to believe that a whole year has gone by since I last photographed this family. Our session today was just as wonderful as the last one! These girls are the absolute epitome of joyful- they have fun just BEING, which makes me feel so lucky to spend time with them. I love that we held this session at the exact location where Mom and Dad got married, which is perhaps why I can’t get enough of this photo I chose for the sneak peek. As these gorgeous girls stare up at their Mom and Dad, I feel like you can see the love they all share in their faces.
Another reason I adore this image is because it’s impossible to tell which one of these adorable girls was born with a heart condition and had open heart surgery at only 16 days old. Her surgery was performed by the very same surgeon who did my daughter’s heart surgery when she was 11 months old. And now, this beautiful girl is thriving, all thanks to the fabulous care she received at Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago. I have never promoted anything on my blog, but because this is a cause that is so near and dear to my family as well, I would love to share this opportunity with you all. If you click here you can make a donation to the Move for the Kids 5K Run/Walk so that this beautiful girl and millions of other children can receive the care that they need at the brand new Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, in downtown Chicago.
