Day on the Farm

I love "Day in the Life" shoots. They give me an opportunity to really get to know the family. This family hired my husband and I for a two day shoot, invited us to stay overnight, fed us, and, most importantly, welcomed us into their world. We had a wonderful time photographing them - capturing the landscape, the details, and the bonds between everyone. But the best part for us was witnessing the love and commitment these parents have for each other and for their girls. It was inspiring to see such a solid foundation for life being carefully laid for each one of them. They had a great balance of guidance, discipline and encouragement. I could go on and on about them, but there's only so much space. Sooo, here is a small slice of what was captured, and a few more can be seen on my flickr (when you get to the link, you can view as a slideshow). We will be creating a custom coffee table book with all the images (close to 300 photos).























And I included this to show just how comfortable the family got with us - that's my husband on the far left, and she just reached right up and grabbed his hand...it made me smile.
