A year ago I photographed Chelsa, a mother of two children the same age as mine, who was in the middle of breast cancer treatment. You can see those photos here.

A year later, she is the most beautiful survivor, with her hair growing back and her boys just as precious as ever. These photos touch my heart so much and bring me so much joy to see her healthy. I knew last year that I wanted to photograph them again, so getting the chance to follow through and do it was wonderful. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I do.

Thank you so much, Chelsa and Dan for coming in. I love photographing your family so much. Your boys are just gems. Cheers to you and a fresh new start in 2012!
