A couple of weeks ago, I took part in a special project with Flashes of Hope, a non-profit organization that is geared towards helping create uplifting portraits of children fighting cancer and other life threatening illnesses. The event, which took place at Griffith Park in downtown Los Angeles, was a great success. I’m extremely grateful to the wonderful volunteers from Flashes of Hope and Kaiser for this amazing experience. To make a contribution and help raise money for pediatric cancer research, click here.

Here are just some of my favorite captured moments from the day :)

This, by far, is my most favorite session ever! Why? Because this little cutie is no ordinary kid. She is my awesome brother’s baby girl, Nicole. I haven’t seen Nicole for some time, so I was extremely happy to see her and have the chance to shoot tons of photos of my favorite little person in the whole wide world.

Hope y’all enjoy!
