Photos: Capturing the Everydays

My favorite pictures to take are of my nephews. I love watching them play and interact with each other. They remind me of life’s greatest joy, having each other. When I arrived at my sister’s house I told David I was there to play and visit with him and Jacob (instead of using the babysitting term.) They welcomed me with open arms and allowed me in their world.

Its amazing when I think about the days when my sisters and I use to play together.  Time passes by so fast, if we don’t take the time to stop and notice, soon, the years would have passed by. Good thing for photos and video, they help us remember what we’ll probably forget. They capture the everydays.

Photos: David and Jacob

How boring life would be without these two boys in my life. My youngest nephew, Jacob turned a year old yesterday. To allow my sister to get ready for his party, David spent a night at our house. I somehow tricked him in to coming outside with me to do some photos. He decided he would give me a variety of expressions to choose from…which I loved.

David: 3 years old

Jacob: 1 year old

I can’t wait until Jacob learns to talk. I’m so curious to see what he will say. I can tell he is going to be the one observing everything. During his party he needed a nap but instead wanted to stay up to watch everyone.

Photos: Her name is Daisy

There is something heavenly about little girls. The grace and beauty they carry with them in the mist of a crazy world, reminds me of all that is good. If you look in their eyes you can see hope.
I work with Daisy’s family at church. The first time I saw her I knew that one day I would use her for a shoot. There was something graceful about her.
When she stands in sunlight she looks like an angel. Each photo reminds me of God’s beauty.

Photos: My vintage baby

I found these cute vintage baby clothes at “Hobo’s” in Redlands. I felt a little funny buying them but couldn’t resist. I knew Jacob wouldn’t mind being my model.

Post #4: Children Photography

The first thing I noticed was Zack’s awesome shirt. I love the colorful stripes. It’s amazing how the time of day will change the mood of a set of photographs. I love how the sun was setting during Zack’s photo shoot. His eyes really stood out and his blonde hair glowed. It wasn’t easy chasing a twenty month old child but these photos made it look like he stood steal for me. And that’s all that matters.
