It’s almost time, I’ve also been tying up loose ends with the Dealing for Duchenne fundraiser that is this coming up Saturday at the UT Golf Club. I know Julie and the other co-chairs have been working so hard to get ready and it’s going to be SO worth it! It’s not too late to get your tickets, it’s going to be an awesome night, famous people, casino gambling, an auction, all for a great cause! I am donating a full session to the silent auction, I can’t wait to see who wins it!! More than anything, I can’t wait to see Tim, Laura, Timmy and Andrew surrounded by love […]

I want to live.

Laura and Tim are in the fight of their lives. Every day. They are fighting to save their son. Working, looking, praying for a cure for Duchenne.

There is no cure.

But there is hope.

I knew from the moment I was asked to photograph this family that they would change me. I knew I’d learn a lot about Duchenne, something I knew very little about. I knew I’d come home and hug my children tighter, appreciate the smaller moments a little more. I knew I’d cry proofing their photos. More […]

Timmy is back! Going to UT and photographing Timmy and his family with Mack & Sally Brown and having the run of the field was so much fun (for all of us!). But I wanted to give this family something more. I spent the afternoon today with them at their home in an effort to capture real, everyday moments of their family. Casual, fun, just being themselves, doing what they do, loving their boys, running around, exploring dirt and rocks and sticks, going for a walk, sippy cups and hugs. And I’m so glad I did, it was such a nice way to spend an afternoon. I didn’t think Timmy could steal my heart any more than he already […]
