The thing about what I do is that it comes from inside… I mean, I do have a business- being paid for it doesn’t suck ;) But at the end of the day what really matters.. what I do it for… I do it to capture the things that I find too precious to let go in a momentary glance. I want to capture my daughters eyelashes before there comes a time they are covered in mascara every day. I want to capture my sons adorable round, soft cheeks before they give way to a chiseled jaw line & whiskers. So many things that my memory may forget that these images can remember. I do it for me. I do it for my family. We have welcomed a new addition to our brood- a new reason to keep capturing all the unforgettable pieces that are there. And I couldn’t be more in love with all the new things I won’t forget…
introducing my new nephew…
This is my new niece. She is perfect. And this is just the very first of her MANY photo shoots.
Can ya keep a secret? yeah? Good. I’m thinking about stealing her- shhhh… ;)
