I don't often blog family sessions but it isn't for lack of having them! The Snider's session is one of my favorite family sessions to date. If you've followed my work at all over the years, you know I'm completely into creamy colorful images. Plus, there is just something about a set of adorable twins in a field of wildflowers! :)
I know what you are experiencing as parent of young children. The questions that swirl around in your head all day. Questions like: How many days can I actually go without showering before the neighbors notice? Will I completely go insane if I have to put another pair of shoes on somebody? Will I ever feel like a human being again? How can I feel this all-consuming love for such a tiny little energy-sucking emotional manipulator in diapers??
When can I hold her again? How is it possible to love somebody this much?!
And while often this love feels unrequited (as I go for a kiss and she slaps me in the forehead) I still die to my own selfishness daily because my love for them is so fierce.
As a parent myself, I crave images the convey the love I feel for my daughters. When I capture that for my clients I feel like crying. Every. Single Time.
At any given moment families with young children are most likely not hanging out in wildflower fields, showered and dressed top-notch. But when they are, I sure as heck photograph them!
