Little Heroes: Lani Forbes I got a heart wrenching call from a nurse at St. Lukes, yes, she was crying. She asked if I was available to photograph this family. Mother is 34 years old, married with three small children. The first phone call was to come in soon. I loaded up all my equipment, […]

I’m not allowed to show her beautiful face or name but I will share this moment the best I can. Baby girl lived 54 days. She fell asleep and never woke up. I got a call from Summers Funeral home to take pictures of this sweet angel. This was a first for me. I wasn’t […]

I got the call from the hospital that mom was dilated to a 9 and will have the baby soon. They had no idea if the baby was alive or not, they weren’t monitoring her. This is pretty common when there is a high chance the baby could be stillborn. Everyone was anxious to meet […]

Gracyn’s Story Written by mom…I’ll give a little back story on my pregnancy first. Gracyn’s story starts with us finding out we were expecting our 4th child around 7 weeks along. The throwing up gave it away but this time it was the worst it ever has been. I lost 10 lbs before my first […]

Caia – 4.15.2021 These calls are never easy, they are all unique in their own way, and the bottom line it is heartbreaking for all. Especially mom and dad. I can’t even imagine losing a child. I can only hope that these images give their heart a big hug every time they look at them. […]

Remember when I reached out and asked for donations to get outfits for a Little Heroes Family? Well…this is it! Circumstances changed from when I asked but do you guys realize how amazing you are?
