Last June on one of our road trips north to our Montana cabin, we visited the ghost town of Bannack. Places like this have always fascinated me and stirred my imagination. I did a shoot with one of my older daughters, Octavia, last year. You can see her images HERE.
Last year, we had the weight of Sylvie's impending open heart surgery hanging over our heads. She was struggling to eat enough and gain weight, and would be admitted to the hospital shortly after we returned from this trip. It was, without a doubt, the scariest thing our family has endured.
Fast forward to this year - almost exactly one year later - and Sylvie is a healthy, thriving toddler. She's talking, eating well, walking, into everything, and an absolute joy. She's a happy, inquisitive, intelligent girl, and we couldn't be more thankful that she has done so well with the hand she was dealt. She totally earned her own little shoot in the ghost town this year.
Jeff was impatient to leave for our cabin, so I literally had about 30 minutes to shoot - and if any of you have worked with a mobile toddler, you know how hit or miss that can be. That said, I got some images of Sylvie that I think are thought provoking and I am in love with them.
