In our fast paced world filled with turmoil and strife, our disconnecting technology, it is important to take a step back and reflect on what is really important in life. Who and what matters most? Most people would answer those questions with one word...family. It is within our families that we are able to find the strength and support to make it through our difficult times and help solve the problems of our everyday lives. It is within our families that are we learn to love, to fight, to respect, compassion, empathy, and so much more that primes us for what has yet to come.
And of course family is not always blood. Families, regardless of what shape or form they may come in, are filled with people who accept you for who you are, flaws and all, and still want you in their lives. People who love you no matter what. People with whom no matter how wrong, or annoying or prideful you may be, have a relationship with you that is build with love and respect and joy.
Now as I mentioned before, this world of ours is fast paced and we are constantly bombarded with technology and other factors that are disconnecting. Seasons change, time moves forward and before you know you're old and gray, the kids are all grown up and out on their on. That is why it is so important to hold onto the memoires you build and share together with the people that matter most...with family.
For most of you who know me, I am all about empowering women and I often talk a fair amount about my boudoir sessions, however I also think family and children photo sessions are so important as well. To freeze frame those special moments together, those paramount milestones is something that can be so powerful and important. It allows us to go back and time and reflect on those momentous occasions and smile about something we once shared with those we treasure.
One of the great things about my job is all the wonderful people who end up passing through my life as a result. I get a glimpse into the family lives of so many unique people and get to witness first hand the love and connections they share in the brief time that I spend with them. A while back I was able to do this with Kelly and her family, her four children. It was a beautiful, sunny, Saturday afternoon and despite the summers heat the kids cooperated without any fuse or a single complaint. Kelly was one of many clients that day who partook in a special I was holding for children and family sessions. I am glad I was able to meet Kelly and her family and capture for her, her family in that moment and provide her with something tangible to reflect on for the years to come.
The following are some images from that day.
