Promo photos for Children's Wish
Hayley and her family today
I meet a lot of sick children in my work with the IWK hospital and Children's Wish Foundation. I never ask about their illness; I don't want to know. Instead, I ask about their friends at school and their favorite books, their siblings and their toys.
I first met Hayley a few years ago when she was quite sick. Children's Wish was raising money to send her and her family to Disney.
Hayley's Mom stayed in touch, and contacted me recently with a request. Hayley's parents were separating and Mary wanted new photos of her and the three kids to start their new life together.
Sometimes, I am blessed to take photographs in beautiful venues, exotic places, with gorgeous people. Those photographs are often visually stunning. Then sometimes, I get to take everyday photos of everyday people who are extraordinary.
That's what I did yesterday. I hope these simple images of these beautiful children help to heal Mary's heart and serve as a new family heritage for Hayley and her siblings.
