These days in-home shoots have been speaking to me in a way that is different from all of my other work. I’m sure its because this is the stage of life that I’m in, the stage of playing in the backyard and picking up messes, and babies and home. As a working parent I always feel pulled in too many directions, but having small children means that my heart and mind are first consumed by those little people and all that goes in to caring for them. Not that I’m complaining! I’m constantly reminded that this stage is fleeting. For me, photos that capture the real-ness of our daily life at home are the most meaningful, but they’re hard to come by. {Believe it or not, I don’t have my camera out at home all the time!} I *love* being able to capture those moments for other families.
I met this sweet family last summer when I was shooting a wedding, and a couple of weeks ago I went to their house to spend a little time capturing their family as they welcomed new baby Adam. Little Nina also had me quickly wrapped around her finger…
I’m hoping to have more time for these shoots in the fall, when the wedding season crazy dies down a little. Email me at ericarosephotography@gmail.com if you want to get one on the calendar!
