this life is prettier with you

I really love when I get the opportunity to work on something just for fun. As a busy photographer, I am almost never caught up on my sessions, which means, I don’t have a lot of time to shoot just for me. Each year, I have certain goals in mind that I want to accomplish that year. This year, 1 of my goals is to document the everyday beauty in my own life. Sure, I do the occasional instagram pics or iPhone snapshots, but I hardly ever pull out my big camera in my own home. You’d think a photographer would have a million more photos of their own kids, but that’s not always the case. I’ve always loved the idea of doing a 365 project…you know, 1 photo a day for the whole year, and I’ve tried the last couple years to follow others in a group 365 project where there’s themes & goals for each week, and I never finish…in fact, I usually don’t even make it past the 1st month! :/ I decided this year, I’m just doing it for me. No group, no theme, no goal, no one waiting on me for my contribution to the project. My only goal is 7 photos per week of my own family, my own beauty, my own home. Come on this journey with me as I share it each week.  #thislifeisprettierwithyou

Here’s my 1st week:

Four years of Motherhood Minis with these sweet girls. 

One of the greatest joys of being a photographer is getting to watch your little ones grow year after year. It truly is such a privilege and an honor to preserve these seasons for your family.

Time has a way of slipping by faster than we ever expect. The tiny hands, the giggles, the way they look at you right now—it all changes before you know it.

Don’t wait for the “perfect” time. Book the session. Your future self (and your children) will be so grateful you did.
