Do you remember going to your grandma’s house and looking through old photos for hours and hours? I do. The rounded corners, the orange hue like a warm sunny day, and that feeling of wonder and connection to all of the people you love the very most in this world.
I know that when I say that time goes by far too fast I am not saying anything remotely unique. In fact it’s bordering on cliché but I feel that no truer words have ever been spoken. This sense of time and life rushing by was intensified the moment I became a mother. I found myself taking hundreds and hundreds of images so that I could remember exactly how tiny my daughter’s feet were the day she came into this world…the way she looked when she first learned to smile. I began to realize that these images were the most important things I owned.
When I pick up my camera I get excited about the connection, the smile, the laugh, the furrowed brow, the pouty lip, the tiny toes, the twirl, the magic that I will capture forever.
Let me help you remember. Let me capture a bit of your soul.
