Behind the Lens: Capturing Community Care for Crystal Lake City Lifestyle Magazine
In every project I take on, I strive to capture more than just moments—I aim to tell a story. This month, I had the incredible opportunity to partner with Crystal Lake City Lifestyle Magazine for their January 2025 Health & Wellness Issue to shine a light on an organization making a profound impact: the McHenry County Department of Health (MCDH).
A Resource for the Community: The Mobile Clinic
One of the highlights of this feature was learning about MCDH's new Mobile Clinic, a resource aimed at bringing important health services closer to the community. Whether through screenings or other forms of care, this clinic on wheels is designed to make accessing health support more convenient and inclusive for those who need it.
This innovative service reflects the commitment of MCDH to addressing health needs in ways that are both proactive and compassionate.
Meeting the Team
Photographing the incredible staff at MCDH was both inspiring and humbling. Their dedication to the community goes beyond their work—they are true advocates for health equity and wellness. Through my lens, I aimed to capture their passion and commitment, ensuring that their efforts would resonate with the audience of Crystal Lake City Lifestyle.
Why It Matters
The Mobile Clinic is a meaningful initiative that demonstrates how community-focused solutions can bring about real change.
