Here is a link to a blog post by my wonderful and extremely talented friend Stacy who captured some magical moments of my little family at our first ever family photo shoot. Stacy asked me to write a little something about why we wanted to do a shoot and she posted my words to go with her photography on this post. The whole thing is, in her words, "beyond special."
Whenever I am having a tough day as a mom I just scroll through these photos and watch the 3 minute video at the end and I regain my perspective and joy. What a gift!
Thank you Stacy...for your friendship...and for sharing your gifts through your photography.
to capture us.
i didn’t want to do a big professional photo-shoot until i knew our family was complete. getting to that point has been a journey full of ups and downs, but when our third daughter was born i felt we had arrived at “complete” and were ready for some pictures. there was only one person i wanted to capture our crew, my dear friend stacy, but for a while i hesitated to book a shoot because, well, we aren’t particularly fancy or stylish and i didn’t think our little ragamuffin family was worthy of her talent.
but as i looked through stacy’s family photo shoots i realized something…it’s not that stacy photographs only amazingly beautiful people…what makes her photography so lovely, so captivating, is that she somehow captures the natural beauty that is inside each person, each family. that is what i wanted – our family’s signature beauty to be captured.
