I am so thrilled to share with you all my newest body of work! Recently, I’ve teamed up with The World of Hyatt, Hyatt Regency & some of the strongest, most inspiring people in Chicago to create “Portraits of Understanding.” Portraits of Understanding is a portrait series of 28 women, whom in addition to being absolute Queens, also happen to be survivors of Cancer.

As some of you might know, doing work for special organizations, special projects & nonprofits are something I care about greatly. So my passion & empathy for this project was only multiplied by own prior experience with cancer. I’m so proud of (not only) the results of these images, but also the team. They were all so fantastic & the energy on set was amazing! Watching everyone laugh, have fun & feel beautiful was an enlightening experience.

I want to thank the entire Hyatt team & these women for giving me the opportunity to be a part of such a fantastic project. Feel free to follow more of the portraits, here.
