I rarely take on a personal project with the already sometimes overbearing workload I receive with my clients, but I decided to shoot something personal: my Star Wars obsessed daughter who is turning 5 in a couple of days. I really wanted to capture her personality and who she is. She is a sweet and sassy little girl with a huge Star Wars obsession. Not a Princess Leia type, but the Darth Vader type. I caught her playing with Chewy and a stormtrooper, jumping on the couch, dancing, and just being herself. In the same breath that she takes off her Vader helmet, she puts on a flower crown – because it’s OK to be both a Sith Lord AND a princess. Out of everything I’ve ever shot, this session of my own daughter has to be at the top.
