Whenever I thumb through my grandmother's old family albums - a favorite activity of mine since I was a child - I notice that, over and over again, I'm drawn to the same images:

My mother, holding my hand as we leap over ocean waves.
My father. propping me up on his lap so my little hands can proudly reach the steering wheel.
My grandparents, young and in love, gazing at each other in a private moment.

They speak to me, not just because they are pretty pictures, but because they make me FEEL.

When I photograph a family, I strive to capture the little things that may otherwise float away. The beauty of a round pregnant belly, a newborn’s sleepy perfection, a toddler’s mischievous grin, the spontaneous laughter between siblings – these are the moments that bring photographs to life. They tell a story. When you look back at your own photographs, it is likely not the overly-posed “say cheese” photos that touch your heart. It is a moment or relationship captured forever in still life.
