Portraits for a Purpose

Photos celebrating what makes them them.

Saturday, June 21st 2025

Saying “cheese”= cheesy smiles and no one wants THAT.

My approach to photographing children involves having a conversation, learning about their favorite things, and telling some silly jokes. This leads to more organic and natural expressions. Sometimes they laugh out loud. Sometimes they are more serious and reserved. Sometimes they strike their own pose or ham it up. All these expressions are equally beautiful.
