Babies are so cute, new and chubby. Toddlers have those big, bright eyes and let’s face it, they just do the funniest things. But those pre-teen ages are often forgotten. At ages 9-13, kids aren't children anymore but aren't quite teens or just barely!
As a photographer I want to provide something that will make a positive impact on people's lives. If you are like myself, when you flip the plastic pages of your parents' family photo album, one of the few photos that exists of you as a pre-teen is a traditional school photo. You know the one? That head and shoulders pose with the cheesy grin. Your teeth are slightly too big for your face and your hair isn't combed. Ah, sweet innocence! I'm making it my personal mission to capture those lost pre-teen years.
In comes the "Who I am." project
I have started the "Who I am" photography project to fill in the forgotten photo years while enriching the lives of pre-teens ages 9-13. The goal is to help pre-teens look and feel attractive and have unshakable confidence in themselves as they move through middle school and hit high school. I want to capture the last stages of your pre-teen’s childhood before they become young ladies and gentlemen.
We will ask the model and their parents a few questions, then combine the text and photographs to create meaningful pieces of art. Imagine the impact that a beautiful image can have. Now add some personal words of encouragement to create a priceless image that builds their self-esteem and shows their true personality & spirit.
