Feeling Blessed...

Recently, I had the honor of meeting this wonderful family through my work with The Littlest Heroes Project. The project is a non-profit organization made up of photographers that provide complimetary photo sessions to our littlest heroes - children or young people (under the age of 21) who have serious illnesses or life altering conditions. Our mission is to provide the families with the simple pleasure of taking time out to have their family photographed, and to share their inspirational stories and photographs with the world. I am blessed to be involved with this organization and to be entrusted with this important work. If you know a family who may benefit from the services provided by The Littlest Heroes Project, applications are available through http://littlestheroesproject.org/

Here is 'M', a high school student with Down Syndrome, who loves to playing (and coaching) basketball, and going for long walks with his family. His sisters and parents are just lovely...I really enjoyed our time together.
