This past Saturday at Sugarcup Trading in Oak Park, I set up a photo booth for kids to take a photo for their mom’s on Mother’s Day. It was a great time had by all! Thanks to everyone who came out.

After photographing my Great Aunt & Uncle the other day, I feel inspired to start taking photos of older generations as well. I enjoy opportunities to spend time with those who have had much more time spent in this world then I and those who are just beginning their time. Something about their experiences being so distant in either direction from mine.

I came across this photo by Anna Moller and just love it so much! She has other amazing portraiture, especially of kids.

I think this week, I’m going to shoot more film. Being inspired is a beautiful thing!

Kids On The Beat: 12th Planet

I was wrapping up my walk, and about to call it a day, when I happened upon skateboard crew 12th Planet. I had never seen or met 12th Planet, but they welcomed me with handshakes all around and loads of positive vibes. I love meeting young people who are on a journey, working hard, and doing what they love. 

You could tell they loved skateboarding, and the camaraderie that comes with it. They gave support to each other when they tried a trick and made sure each other was alright when someone fell. 

Unfortunately the whole 12th Planet crew wasn’t present, and I could only stay for a short while to shoot. But I have a feeling we’ll meet again…Keep on keeping on 12th Planet!
