I’ve been lucky to have met so many incredibly talented and wonderful photographers during this journey who share the same desire to capture their own families in a real and beautiful way. I’m teaming up with eleven of these women on a very personal and meaningful project called, “What ________ Looks Like.”
Our goal is to capture our own families in a real and beautiful way. Some people call it “lifestyle”, some call it “real life”, some call it “unposed”. No matter what you call it, our desire is to snatch the moments that represent the relationships, the dynamics, the reality, the beauty, the truth, and the life of our families and record them here on our blogs as well as in print at the end of the project.
Each month we will each choose to fill in the blank with our word of choice. Some of us may choose to use the same word all year and some may choose to change it up each month. We will each link to the next photographer until our circle is complete.
We hope this project inspires you to take more pictures of your own families so that those moments that make your family unique will never be lost or forgotten.
Lately I’ve been a little melancholy as the reality, that we have less than 2 years left before our oldest will up and leave us for college, begins to set in. I wish for time to go by slower so I can savor it. But try as I might, my wish just doesn’t seem to be coming true. Life is flying by faster and faster every year. So I’m trying to snatch these moments out of the air with my camera in the hope that when I need a dose of her, I’ll be able to come back to them and remember.
Fall is probably my favorite season of the year. I love the beauty of the leaves as they change colors and fall. I love pulling out the crockpot to make soup and the Scentsy warmer to make my house smell like baked apples and cinnamon. As much as I quickly tire of it, fall just isn’t fall without college football on TV. And along with college football season comes high school football season. The best part, especially for us girls, is Homecoming. This month I’m focusing on What getting ready for Homecoming Looks Like. And please don’t judge. A clean room is NOT a priority for most teenagers.
Please take a peek into the lives of each of the crazy-talented photographers this month, starting with Jennifer Nguyen | Snails and Pigtails Photography | Temecula, CA Photographer.
