I loved photography long before anyone paid me to do it and I will love it even if I never get another paying client. It has always pulled at me, but since having kids that pull is even stronger. To capture them just as they are. Right now. Sometimes I look at them and they seem so small and the next minute I can’t understand how they have already gotten so big. I think the most important photos I can take are of my own family. No they are not perfectly styled, and my home is far from perfect but what matters is capturing the little details I never want to forget. I took these shots of Ava the other day because the summer weather is making her natural curls perfect and I love them. Please never go away. These photos make me want to cry happy tears of love, so I can only imagine the treasures they will be years from now. (Tess is getting some cute curls too, but she is far less cooperative in front of the camera at this age.)
