The WHY to my beginning 🤍
As a mama and a rising photographer, I have done three things right in my life: marrying my husband, having our two children, and picking up a camera (although they didn’t happen in that order). Having children taught me so much about love and how to take the perfect photo.
I realized my children have become my muses, extraordinary models whose movements, actions and emotions are both my subject and my inspiration. I have been so blessed to see them in action and to dissect their development in the most mundane moments as well as the most exciting. Their intricate facial reactions and movements, however fleeting to the eye, are what make up the little beings that I call Grayson and Cooper. Their little personalities translate through these human forms they inhabit, their physical actions signaling what’s going on inside their souls. As they grow and become more and more intriguing, I’m using my camera to capture their real personalities, through the eyes of their mama.
With a lot of patience and a lot of shooting time, I have been lucky enough to get the images below. But please know that anyone can take photos like this — and you can start doing it immediately. All you need is a camera, some patience and a willingness to study and then capture these tiny souls. Just remember: watch and photograph. Do not interfere, and you will get some amazing images. Most of all, enjoy studying them, as they truly are a wonder and a gift.
