Merry Christmas from Leta, Marlo and Jon Armstrong

Merry Christmas from the girls and me

This was a hard shoot for Marlo. Her inner art director was very upset when I dropped my hand from under her chin. For the sake of all of us, I kept my hand under her chin. And then tried to get her laughing hard. And then we both closed our eyes on the best shot. Leta? Trooper.

Thank you so much for the support, good energy and kindly words over the past 12 months. Thank you. May this holiday season find you happier, healthier and surrounded by love.

    I very very love this. And although you and Leta pretty much look exactly alike, there’s a significant similarity between Marlo here and you in the solo holiday shot you posted a few weeks ago. Something in the way glee comes bubbling out the eyes (open or no).

    Merry Christmas to you and yours. Here’s to a new year. I’ve had some signs that this one is going to be a good ‘un, and I’m going to do all I can to make it so.

    Happy New Year Jon, it’s been great following your growth in what has had to have been the hardest year of your life. You’re a great role model to other Dad’s doing it on their own. Bless you and good luck moving forward!

    Thank you for being honest and open here. I have received great positive energy, peace, and hope for my own life by reading about your challenges. I know I’m not alone in my feelings, and I can’t tell you how important that is for me. Happy New Year, and I know it will be great for all of us.

    What a great portrait shot! I have experimented with reflections before but that one tops all. Well done. And a very merry (belated) Christmas to you and yours :)
