When was the last time you jumped in a rain puddle? Or the last time you dove into a pile of leaves? Went for a quick run with friends for fun rather than for exercise? Keep watch on our kiddos and they might actually be giving us a lesson in life while we’re teaching them to be respectable adults later in life.
About a month ago I had the privilege of being invited to capture family images for the Evanoff family at their private residence. Each member of the family was simply awesome and so much fun to work with. One request was to maybe have the grandchildren hold hands and look over their shoulder for an image.. which was captured but I’m starting to really focus on aiding in the moment for the photo where photojournalism moments rarely exist. As I had the children turn, still holding hands, on the count of three they sprinted towards the camera with these gorgeous, beaming, natural smiles shown here. This my friends is a priceless moment captured in time of true free spirits.
