Kids On The Beat: Chinoynellum
Chinoynellum was a very adorable and vibrant individual, with a contagious smile. She was also extremely polite to repeatedly introduce herself to me, “my name is Chinoynellum!”, knowing I would probably forget how to pronounce her beautifully unique name!
She was having a great time on the swing set, her dad giving her a push every now and then. I just had to take a photo of her...

Kids on the Beat: Eila, Joshua, Maxx and Tarah
While out and about downtown this past Monday, I spotted the incredibly cute Ihrie family visiting from Fort Wayne, Indiana. I was thrilled when they said I could snap a few photos of them.
This one of Joshua and Tarah looking at the kids, while they stare at me…LOVE!
Tarah and Joshua are also photographers, check out their studio here: https://www.facebook.com/SparrowStudios
Kids On The Beat: Elena
Elena was on the go, speed walking full throttle toward me down the street! I couldn’t believe how fast those little legs could move.
After patiently standing for a few shots, she preceded to show me what she has learned in yoga and ballet class. She was in her element and I was very impressed! Namaste Elena!
Kids on the Beat: Ian
I spotted Ian suited up, running bases before his game today. His team was 1-1 and there was no way they were walking away without the big “W” for game 3! Good Luck Ian!
Kids on the Beat: Shea
I saw Shea at the park with her mom while I was on a walk. I loved her electric red hair, bright blue eyes, and just played soccer mud stained knees! In this last photo, she’s laughing as her mom recalls a story of when she dressed up as a monster to scare her cousins…so great!
Kids on the Beat: Sophia
I was in St. Louis this weekend and spotted Sophia outside the St. Louis Art Museum with her mother and her aunties (who were all in tutus as well!) and just had to snap a pic of her. How could I miss her, right? She was all smiles for the camera, obviously having a great day with the ladies. Nice to meet you Sophia!

Grace + Althea
It was magical up on the mountain that afternoon. We were at the very top, at the end of the road, and it began to snow.
I was moving back to Chicago in a few days, and was coming to terms that my time in Vermont was at an end. So being there with Grace, Althea, and their mother Fallon, on top of the mountain, among the trees, the quiet, and the snow, was very special for me.
Grace and Althea...

What we need is here...
I recently had a wonderful opportunity to photograph a group of fantastic kids at a daycare in Waterbury. This being my first fall in Vermont, the kids and I were equally excited with the freshly fallen leaves and changing colors. You could tell, this was the time of year we had all been waiting for.
Our senses were filled with new beginnings of fall. The sweet scents, the crunching under our...

Maya and Eliza
It was beautiful and refreshing to watch a field of dandelions become a magical playground for Maya and Eliza during our day together. Since moving to Vermont, the dandelion has been re-born to me as an inspiringly resiliant and helpful spring plant. I would have never thought that this “weed” could provide so many uses in taking care of ourselves. How lucky Maya and Eliza are to have...
