Details

Just another reason I love photography so much. I can forever capture the little details of every day life with my children. It's the little things that can be so easily forgotten. That I'm afraid to forget. The things that melt my heart. The wonder in their eyes as they discover the world around them. The dimples on their hands in place of knuckles. An odd or funny expression on their face. Holding Daddy's hand as they are unsure on their feet. Oh....those itty-bitty toes. I have an obsession for baby feet. Children grow up so fast. Before you know it all those "baby" features disappear. There is always more to capture, though. With each new day. Every age comes with something new I want to savor. If you follow this page long enough you will probably come to find I take a lot of random photos....things I like to call "Details." These are the little things I love about my kids and never want to forget. These are a few.....

A Mother's Love

Last week a very good friend of mine drove an hour and a half down to see me so we could have a play date with our kids. Although I usually say a play date is more for the moms than the children as it gives us as mothers a chance to have some true adult conversations and company while the kids entertain themselves and have someone else to play with for a while.
While we were visiting we decided to do an impromptu photo shoot of her and her children. Unscripted. Raw. Candid. Those are my favorite types because it shows the subjects' real emotions.....and this was no exception. You can see the love this family has for one another. It melts my heart. Bek is such a kindred spirit and an exceptional mother beyond words.
One reason I love photography is because I feel that photos can tell a story better than words ever can which is why I wanted to share a few of the shots from that day.
