Adoption Photo: Luke, 3, China

2011 Adoptive Families Cover Photo Contest

Adoptive Families 2011 Cover Contest: Finalist

Luke (3, China), son of Lara and Todd, North Carolina

PHOTOGRAPHER: Lara

“This photo makes us laugh every time we see it, because it shows Luke in all of his joyful exuberance. On a summer trip to the Outer Banks, Luke and his big sister ran up and down the beach, with the waves chasing close behind. He was so absorbed by the wonder of the ocean that he didn’t even notice the camera—although, if he had, he still would have smiled.” -LARA

This photo puts a big grin on my face. One, the look of bliss on his face is priceless and super charming, and two, you know he’s probably saying, “Whee(eeeeee)!”
