A while ago, I had the opportunity to donate a session to a good cause. Little Maggie had just found out that she had leukemia at the tender age of 3 years old. Family and friends were having a silent auction to raise money for her medical costs, and I donated a session to that auction after a friend mentioned what was going on. I also wanted to give the family the gift of a family session, which we did in November. I could tell it was hard on their family to go through so much with such a young one, but they were still so full of love for one another. I had never met this family before, but I will never forget them now.
We started in their home with one of Maggie’s favorite pastimes…





We then moved to the park-I love this sweet moment!



I love this photo-pure happiness!

I wish the Siegel family all the best-my prayers are with you and with Maggie!
Little Miss Maggie
