I love seeing my family beautiful, crazy lives. It reminds me of my crazy beautiful life. Photographing families with toddlers is SO much fun to me. Funny to think that I used to not be as sure about toddler shoots. They would make me a little nervous – I didn’t know how to relate to little people as well. I didn’t know what is was like to have a little person call you mom (and I knew I’d be getting a workout chasing them around). But now I know. I know the intense love and beauty that these little people bring into families (and I am chasing my own little guy around all day, so I’m totally used it at shoots:)). It’s a fierce, wild, emotions on your sleeve, warm snuggles kind of love.
These two wonderful families let me into their homes and lives for a couple hours. Gosh are families amazing. I do so love my job.
