The Sligo Creek Photographer | Giving Back | Leo's Run 2017

This weekend I had the incredible opportunity of photographing Leo's Run! Based right here in Silver Spring, the charity 5K walk/run was created by Mike Mowery and his wife Carolyn who, tragically, lost their infant son Leo a few years ago. Held each year on Leo's birthday weekend, the run helps keep Leo's memory alive and raises funds for Leo's Garden, a non profit designed to help other families who have suffered the loss of children. 

2017 marked the third year of the event, and I'm told by past participants that it just keeps growing. It's easy to see why... The event was just plain fun! There was great music, awesome raffle prizes, zumba, break dancing and tons of positive energy! Believe it or not, this was actually my first experience with a charity race and I loved it! (Spoiler: that's probably because I didn't have to do any running ;) ) I have to give a huge shout out to friends David and Jennifer for introducing me to Mike, his family and this great cause. Being able to photograph such a positive, uplifting event was the perfect way to spend a Sunday morning!

Featured in this post are some of my favorite photos from Leo's Run 2017. You can see additional photos and video from the event by checking out the Leo's Run Facebook page!
