Chick with style: Mars

Style is definitely being passed on to the next generation, and it’s a beautiful thing. For kids to have this cool sense of identity at such an early stage is pretty fresh for me to document. Photographically, I get to showcase these fun little lookbooks and display how far fashion has come to all walks of life. A sense of history and the future as Mars rocks out her Jordan Vs and accessorizes with her shades and iphone 4. Yes, being a kid is definitely fun!
Part of what I love about photographing kids or any person for that matter is capturing them in their most raw, natural form. These images of Mars are a reflection of the wonderful style of her parents, but I know Mars will look at these pictures 10 years from now, and realize that her identity of coolness started an early age. It is important to document these moments. Nothing beats looking back at a visual journal.
