Photos from the Littlest Heroes Project

Here are the photos from our session with Jamie, a photographer who donates her time and talent to the Littlest Heroes Project, a national network of professional photographers providing photos for families with children who are battling various illnesses.

Photos were taken at Chautauqua Park, Boulder, Colorado. All natural light - no flash.

They take my breath away. I never knew how important it was to have family photographs until yesterday, when I saw these for the first time.

"Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving.

What you have on film is captured forever...

it remembers little things,

long after you have forgotten everything."

-Aaron Siskind

Last one first. Brody has such a good time in the mountain air of Dillon, Colorado, that he passed out on his Oma. My stepdad Jacques on the left is pretending I'm not taking his picture.


Jeremy, Brody and me after our brief sojourn in the canoe. I remembered why they called canoes tippy. We didn't, but I was surprised we didn't. Toddlers are not stabilizing factors in a canoe.

Purposes of this photo: Scenery. Also, my mom and sister. My almost 70 year old mom is the blonde on the right. Not bad, Oma!

Brody took this photo. I don't think he meant for it to be a bit crooked, but honestly, I kinda prefer it that way.
My 8 year old nephew took this photo.
This is just gratuitous from Brody's bath tonight. Anything can be a hat, even a disposable salad bowl. Also, I think he's giving me the finger.
