FLASHES OF HOPE

I am excited to say that I got approved to be a Flashes of Hope photographer. My first session was held in Boston at childrens hospital the other day. I got to meet some of the most amazing kids and their families. Suddenly the hospital playroom was transformed into a photography studio. For a few moments it didn't feel like a hospital. Children who didn't want to get out of bed that morning, were suddenly smiling and having fun. Nobody really expects laughter coming from the pediatric cancer floor, but on that day there was nothing but smiles and laughter. The children got the opportunity to take a break from their routine and spend some time with their family just playing and having a good time. Here are a few captured moments.....










You don't get a second chance to capture a once-in-a-lifetime moment.




"FLASHES of HOPE is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating uplifting portraits of children fighting cancer and other life threatening illnesses. The portraits, taken by award-winning photographers, help children feel better about their changing appearance by celebrating it. For families of terminally ill children, it's especially important to have a portrait that preserves forever the beauty, grace and dignity of their child. That's why Flashes of Hope works exclusively with the best professional photographers in the country, all of who donate their time and talent."
