Chris Allums' Kids


I did a photoshoot for my very good friend and client, Chris Allums. Chris is the "star" of the Dixi Furniture Commericals (October 24 post) that I put together a few weeks ago. He needed pictures of his children for their Christmas cards, and he needed them PRONTO! I was left a little disappointed because we had to do them all in the studio due to the weather. The temperature went from like 80 to 40 in a matter of a few hours plus, it had rained that day, and the wind was blowing so hard.

Anyways, the photoshoot had a dual purpose--to get Christmas pictures and to capture some new photos of his son James Christopher who is a very special boy. Please be praying for him--he is in need of a bone marrow transplant. Chris and his family will be moving to Manhatten so that James Christopher can undergo the process of getting the transplant done and recovering. I noticed he is a very strong young boy and is FULL of life. Even though I cannot imagine what he is going through, I know he is so strong. This boy has a black belt in karate! Again, please be praying for him and his wonderful family as they get ready for change in their lives.

As you can see, all of Chris' kids are VERY photogenic! Each one has a unique character and personality that shines through in these photos!
