Cover Photography: Photographer Keith Maguire is a commercial and portrait photographer serving the Chico area. The timelessness of a photograph is what speaks to him the most. Each photograph is a piece of a story. His first love is portrait photography, but he also loves street photography, wedding and couples photography, and landscape photography. You can find his work at keithalton.com

On the Cover: Dr. Denise Abbasi, of Corning’s Adventist Health office, is continually pleased to see 4-month-old Carmen Servin meet and exceed her developmental milestones as an infant with Down syndrome. Carmen’s sweet natured personality brings so much joy to her mom, Faviola; and to her three older siblings. Read more about Dr. Abbasi’s love for large, close-knit families on page 16.
