The plans to photograph this little guy have been in the works for almost a year. Mom contacted me about a session asking if I had worked with special needs children, especially children with autism. I probably didn’t give her much comfort as I told her that I had, but the cases had been on the milder end of the spectrum. Honesty is the best policy, right? However, I promised her that I would do my very best to capture her son if she helped me along the way by telling me about him. I wanted to know things he liked, things that scared him, etc. Since she told me he loved trains, we decided to do the session near a Train Station. In hindsight, I’m so glad we did as he really did enjoy seeing the train pass by. During the session and while editing the images, I was touched by the patience and love that I saw. I feel honored to have had the opportunity to photograph this family– thank you A! I hope you love these images– they have certainly found a special place in my heart. I hope we do get to see each other every year
