Limbs lengthen, dimples disappear, curls fall, and families change. I want to help you put those memories in permanence. I want to follow your little ones dancing through their space and document your love for each other. The love will last, but it will shift. The love will change from “pick me up, mama” and soft snuggles to gangly kids who grow taller than you and want the car keys instead of needing you to tie their shoes (again and again and again).
You’ll fill out a contract and pay a deposit and then we’ll start talking about your family. We’ll talk about the dynamics of now and how your family spends time together and what the light is like in your space. You’ll give me a glimpse into your days and we’ll make a plan of how to spend our time together.
At your session we’ll follow the light that streams through your windows and doorways (if that’s only one window, we’ll find it and we’ll use it… and use it and use it). We’ll play and laugh and for two hours you’ll have no other plans besides focusing on one another and looking at each others’ faces. We can blow bubbles and give piggy-back rides and get cozy and play “airplane”. Kids will do what they do (because they’re kids) but we’ll have time and we’ll make magic together.
After our time together you’ll receive a full gallery in a few weeks and then we can talk about how I can help you get those photos off the computer and into your real life. Life throws curve balls and sometimes in the midst of a tough season you need to see the light creating a halo around their little heads and that look of adoration in your faces and the way they walk on their little tip-toes. It helps. It matters. And I’m honored to be part of documenting a small part of your story.
