I am so fortunate to be able to be a small part of watching families grow. Especially really wonderful families like this one.

I completely enjoyed photographing this family two years ago with their brand new baby girl, and it was so fun to get to see her as the big sister now!

I feel so fortunate to get to continue to watch this wonderful family grow.

Photography is how I remind myself that even in the midst of what often feels like chaos and never ending cycles of hectic days, I really do pay attention to the small moments. I notice every little expression my children make. Their mannerisms at each age. Their personalities. Their love. This was just a typical saturday morning. The kids were playing randomly in either what they’d slept in the night before, or whatever they’d felt like putting on that morning. Ripped jeans, mismatched clothes, unbrushed hair. Just real life, real kids, sunlight coming in the windows. As I often do, I just grabbed my camera, sat down, and set out to capture who they are at this moment in time. I love them so much!
