What's happening around here...

Well, the summer has whizzed by us as usual... and schools about to start! My kids are excited, comparing notes with their friends on their teachers and classrooms... they cannot wait! I am excited for the fall season here too with all the families we have booked for outdoor portraits and all the new sets we have designed ... here is one of our new sets which we are using for Halloween.... it is just adorable! I cannot wait to see all the kids in their costumes this year! We will be advertsing with a new newsletter soon with all our new sets and what we are doing...

In the meantime, check out GRANT... this adorable 4 year old is a builder for Halloween. Working with children is such a blessing... they say the funniest things and they keep me very very young!

Hoping everyone is having a GREAT week! :-)

We had a fantastic time running around the city and got some amazing stuff.....

Braedon Ondos

Meet Braedon Ondos. Braedon is a 7 year old adorable little boy from Peters Township who lives with a very rare genetic disorder called Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia. PCD is characterized by chronic infections due to inherited defects in tiny hair like structures in the lungs, sinuses and ears called cilia, which can clean the accumulation of mucus and bacteria from organs. This rare disease affects less than 25 thousand people nationwide. Most cases are extremely difficult to diagnose and traet because they are so poorly understood.

Today, I invited Braedon to my studio because I wanted to take a great portrait of him for the upcoming fundraising event that will take place in Peters Township on August 16th. He wasn’t crazy about having his picture taken but he did a GREAT job! Check out his show! PLEASE help us by coming and enjoying this event with your family and help us raise money for the PCD foundation! I will be there with my camera and my children hoping to help the PCD foundation and the Ondos Family in any way that I can. Braedon is a cutie and about to enter the 1st grade at PV elementary with my daughter Christina ... please come and have some fun with us!

Join us on:
