my family is very soccer oriented. Although I no longer play, I remember spending a LOT of my time strapping on my shin gaurds amongst the yells of close family friends. This is a shot of my sister and her friend getting ready for soccer practice

My family is very busy. I see my family for dinner at night (before I then go do my homework) and for a few minutes in the morning for coffee. My parents taught me how to brew a perfect shot of espresso and to steam my milk JUST right to make a morning latte. There is more coffee in our veins than blood probably.

This is a photo of my cousin Megan with her dog Blue - two important members of my family. Megan has Smith-Magenis Syndrome and animals are an important part of her life because they serve as a form of therapy for her, and I wanted to capture the joy she gets from being around Blue.

This is a photo of my cousin Megan, who is 13 years old and has Smith-Magenis Syndrome (a developmental disorder causing behavioral issues). Many people are unwilling to give Megan a chance because of her Syndrome, and I wanted to portray her in a postive light to allow others to get to know Megan as the kind, witty and spirited girl I am so fortunate to have a part of my family.
