Karen & Miles | Jules Ko Photography | New York City
While catching up on past sessions…
I met Karen at a wedding event I was photographing earlier in the summer. She had the kindest smile, and turned to me while I was weaving the crowd, and said that I have the best job, capturing people’s joys. I was impressed at the way she worded her comments as well as her elegant demeanor. We shared our love for photography, and introduced our selves, and later reconnected through facebook. Since then, she’s been nothing but supportive and encouraging towards my own well being as well as my photography. Short months later, she asked me to do a portrait session of her with her pup, Miles down in NYC. I was thrilled!
Not only does Karen work to help people rise above addiction at the Phoenix House, she rescued this sweet dog from a life unfit for any animal. I’ve heard this situation in some of the far away states where people abandon their dogs in the forest, and others go out there to play ‘target practice’ on them. The two dogs I’ve met with this history have been the most sweet, gentle mannered, beautiful creatures, I can’t swallow what cruelty is out there…
Enjoy the beauty of Karen and Miles, and their loving family. We started the session in Karen’s place near central park, and strolled down to Miles’ favorite spots in central park. Miles is a sweet-sweet creature, and his gentleness reminds me of Lady from Lady and the Tramp~ During the session, I was so touched when he set right up against my knee and let me pet him, it felt like nice therapy =)
