Kids
Let There Be Blood
“I always look forward to when my sister has my nieces make or sign cards for me for my birthday. A couple years ago I opened the mail and found this delightful birthday message inside written in little kid serial killer caps. I asked my sister what the deal was and she said Mora was very traumatized that a tiny dot of blood was coming out of her knee after she tripped on a toy. ‘Mora (who was 4 at the time) INSISTED that I put this information in your card so I made her stop crying and write it herself.’
What an honor that she wanted to share her pain with me. I have proudly displayed this card in every office I’ve worked at hoping someone will notice.”

The Anatomy Of A Portrait Gone Wrong
“She had run away from me and by the time I caught up with her, she had discovered the mud puddle. I know my kid, and I knew that with the mood she had been in all morning, she would dive into the puddle as soon as I tried to get her away from it. So I just took photos. Worth it!”

Punky Brewster
“This is my daughter in her preschool class. My husband at the time was a stay at home dad with a punk rock history. He thought it was awesome, she did too, for about 5 minutes. I’m glad we captured it. She’s 14 now and gives it the sideways glance as it’s hanging up in our hallway.”
