My friend Joanna and her family have had a rough year. Diagnosed with breast cancer, Joanna has put on a brave face yet we all know how hard this has been on her and her family. There’s only so many positive message you can send a friend that is struggling. I wracked my brain trying to think of what I could do to to help brighten her day – which led to this ‘joy session with her 7 year old’.
I can’t take away her pain but I can hopefully bring her joy. I set up a mission to have her sister bring her adorable son to me so we could do a mini Christmas photo shoot. What more does a mother ever want than her child? I knew this would be something meaningful and joyful to her. I hope these photos bring her years and years of happiness and a reminder of just how much she is loved. Be strong, be brave Joanna. I hope you love this little surprise. xoxox We love you.
