I photographed Reed Doughty and his family about a month ago at Green Spring Gardens in Alexandria. I’ll have some of those photos to share shortly.
Reed Doughty (#37) is a defensive player for the Washington Redskins and was profiled for the November/December 2008 issue of Hearing Loss Magazine, which I design and produce bimonthly for the Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA). Click here to read that blog posting, see my cover photo of Reed, and download the full Hearing Loss Magazine article. Reed is serving as the 2009 Honorary Chair of the Washington, D.C. Walk4Hearing™ to bring about awareness about hearing loss, its implications and causes. In the upcoming July/August 2009 issue of Hearing Loss Magazine, Reed comments, “Hearing loss might have a stigma sometimes, but I am in need of hearing enhancement. I’m going to wear hearing aids. I hope others will get the help they need.”
This morning Reed’s wife, Katie, came to my studio with the boys, Micah and Caleb, for some indoor head shots to round off the collection of photographs. While Barbara Kelley, editor of Hearing Loss Magazine, entertained 2-1/2 year old Micah, I was able to get some beautiful shots of Katie. Although she says she has never modeled before, she takes direction beautifully and, as you can see, is quite photogenic. I got some really cute shots of the three of them together and more of a very animated and talkative Micah that I’ll share as well.
