Meet the Levi Family! -Littlest Heroes Project

I was contacted a couple months ago by the Littlest Heroes Project to photograph beautiful Mackenzie; a sweet little 5 almost 6 year old (oops sorry mom!) with a tremendous story. In 2006 Mackenzie was diagnosed with Medullablastoma. After 6 cycles of chemotherapy and 3 stem cell transplants Mackenzie has no sign of a tumor! I was VERY blessed to spend a couple VERY HOT but, fun hours with Mackenzie and her family!

Brian, the kids and I headed out early Saturday morning to meet and photograph this little angel and her family at Hazelwild Farm in Fredericksburg, Va. Hazelwild is where both girls, Mackenzie and Grace attend school. I was REALLY hopeful to beat the heat... ha, not so much! I don't remember the last time I sweat so much! *LOL* Gross! I hate sweating except maybe when I'm working out! :) Anyways, we had a lot of fun! I got to not only SEE but TOUCH a pony! You could only imagine my excitement/nerves when one of the ladies from the farm introduced me to Chloe an 1800lb HORSE! Holy Horse she was GINORMOUS- soo cool! Thank you Levi Family for this experience with me!!!

I cant say enough about the family either! They were incredibly sweet! I'm always a little... hmm, nervous? meeting a family for the first time. Right from the git-go I felt comfortable with the family. Mackenzie and Grace are 2 little girls with such personality! Hehe, I felt looking back at the photos that I got a lot of pictures of the back of the girls/families heads... but, I love these shots! And I LOVE the ones of the girls actually looking at me even more! :) Thanks so much for the experience! And thank you so much for taking my family and I out for lunch! You all are so sweet! I hope that you enjoy your sneak peek!

*On a side note: I cannot even begin to explain to you guys how much I have been touched by being a part of this great Project! Visit the Littlest Heroes Project website today to learn more about what and why we do what we do!
