American Heart Association Stroke Connection Magazine Assignment

A recent assignment from Goetz Creative to photograph cover and lifestyle shots for the American Heart Association Stroke Connection Magazine gave us the opportunity to meet an extraordinary couple, Reed and Mary Harris. Reed suffered a stroke in 2007 resulting in his aphasia.  He has made a remarkable comeback and is very active in community support for stroke survivors.

The cover portrait was shot on a high key background to leave room for copy.

Some informal shots were captured outdoors.  Reed and Mary are a very special couple and their dedication and love for each other was evident in their interaction during the session.

Reed and Mary were an absolute delight and great fun to work with.  Click on the link to the online magazine where you can read their story:  http://scmag-digi.strokeassociation.org/strokeconnection/fall_2016?sub_id=74qWMGQb2CMr&pg=2#pg2

Enjoy the day,
