Boys and Boys and Boys, oh my!

I personally think parenting is a pretty demanding job, and I only have 2 kids. When I get to spend time with families that are larger than my own I marvel at the parenting skills needed to make these families run smoothly, in complete awe at how much more composed, calm, and patient other parents are when compared to myself. This family was no different. Raising 5 boys is nothing for the lighthearted - so. much. energy. As you'll see this family is overflowing with love and connection, you can see how much they care for each other, even in the short six hours we were together.

You can also see in this set of photos that beauty is everywhere, you just need to know where to look. So often when I talk to clients they say that their home is messy, or they don't like the way they look, or something just isn't perfect. But I'm here to show you that you ARE perfect. Right now. And even if you don't believe that things are perfect, believe that there is so much beauty in your life. In your suburban driveway. In your kids well-played in room. In your backyard full of toys. In the work that you do as a parent. And in the playfulness of your children. This is why family documentary photography is so incredibly important, in my opinion. It celebrates your family as is, with no apologies.
