One of the things I love most about being a Mother AND a Photographer is being able to not only watch my children grow, explore and discover the world around them, but to be able to capture it as a keepsake. For myself. For them. For our future generations. It's the little things. The little details, as I've talked about before. Those things that can be so easily overlooked and forgotten. Yesterday was my oldest son, Samuel's, first encounter with a grass hopper. For us, as adults, it's not a big deal. For a child it's a very big deal. They say there is nothing new under the sun, but for a child EVERYTHING is new. Exciting. An adventure. I love how full my boys are of curiosity about the world around them. Never fails to amaze me.
