Mothers of Autism in Albuquerque

Back in April I was asked to photograph this group of mothers of autistic children down in Albuquerque. Check out "mothers of autism" on Youtube, and you will see images of mothers from around the world, the music is especially moving.
It was a privilege for me to meet them: A group of courageous women indeed.

I photographed Darlene's husband a few weeks ago, here is one image of him wearing the fabled coat; I have made it look like a vintage picture, something I've done before and enjoy doing!

photographing for Girls Inc in Santa Fe


Back in April of this year I photographed 5 girls from Girls Inc, the picture is being used for their "thank-you" card. We went to a local park and the girls were delightful and fun and easy to work with. Here is the picture chosen.
