I asked Beth if she'd be up for modeling a headshot session - I've been wanting to try a few new lens/lighting combos in my studio space - and in good spirit, she obliged :) Beth was diagnosed with breast cancer on April 8th, 2009. She's already undergone major surgery & is currently undergoing chemo treatments. She's a wife & mom with a busy schedule & I was in admiration of her positive attitude as she told me all she's been through since April. I think it's great that she had this session to document the here & now. When I first asked if she cared about my posting some pics, she didn't hesitate in the least & said it may help to inspire someone else in the same situation. Beth - thanks for letting me experiment!
