mini session stories // tree farm tractor

I have found that one of the best ways to document real-life family moments is to create visual stories. Not just document literally what’s happening in front of me, but to hone in on a theme, or a story.

Tree Farm Mini Sessions // searching for the perfect charlie brown tree

Perfectly imperfect.

That’s what their mom said to me when she told me what tree they would be looking for. A charlie brown tree is this family’s tradition. Representing the beauty that can be made from something that may not appear to have it all together.

I am in total denial that we only have a few weeks left of summer break. So, I am making as many pictures of my kid as possible. Soaking in the rest of summer. Every last drop.

mini session stories // small child big scissors black and white

Mini sessions are like short stories. A chapter in the book of your year.

I would love to meet your family at the lavender field. And find those little stories that fill the pages of the book that uniquely represents your life, your people.
