Gabriel, Gregory and Benjamin. So blessed to know them, to know their story and to know their beautiful Mom. I’ve photographed each of them since they were in Mommy’s belly. She’s one of the strongest women I know and continually amazes me with her courage. We did this session a few days before Christmas because she wanted to photograph them together before Gregory went in for, hopefully, the last of his multiple open-heart surgeries. We always manage to catch up and connect in such a personal real way in a very short amount of time. She’s truly inspiring, not just because she manages three boys beautifully, but because she does it with such strength, conviction, compassion and love. Truly beautiful to witness.
The boys did not stay still together for longer than three second, especially because Benjamin (the little one) is brand new to the walking thing and was too busy being the intrepid explorer of the park. There was a lot of playing, and screaming, and laughing, and crying…everything a good session needs. This first shot is the only portrait-type shot I got of them together; but, I love the beautiful individual shots I got of each. You can see their personalities in their eyes…so different yet undeniably brothers. Enjoy! ♥ Vanessa
P.S. The surgery got postponed until the end of this month…so, “Believe in Miracles”.
