Life is delicate, No? We work so hard and worry so much about making it the way we want. Yet, We have such little control over it. In a single instant our entire world can change. A child gets sick or a spouse is taken before we can prepare. People save their entire lives just to lose everything they’ve worked for. Women that would make incredible Mothers struggle to become them. The worst part is that not one of us is invincible and it’s only a matter of time before we are faced with our own trials.
My way of coping with these thoughts is through memories. Making them, I mean. And taking way more pictures than my family appreciates. I never want to regret not having documented each and every stage of life. Not because I want to live in the past, but because when things get rough, we need something to remind us what makes it all worth it.
And so you see why I love having family pictures taken. Especially by someone as talented as Jennifer Fauset. She was a gem to work with, and the photos are exactly what I was looking for. Seriously, I could spend hours on her blog looking at all her beautiful work.
