Cherish the Child

Recently I was asked to photograph a very neat event.  It was the Cherish the Child walk held each year near Lake Breckenridge.  It was formed to bring people together that have lost children.

It was a very somber event but there was also a tangible sense of healing in the air.  Many people shared their stories of loss, struggle, and eventual peace.  The variety of faces and expressions made this a great event to shoot.  You can see the stories in their eyes.

The Cherish the Child event was also a time for families to gather and share those stories...

Or simply reflect...

At the end of the evening everyone released balloons into the air and flowers into the river in memory of their loved ones.
