You don't make a photograph just with a camera. / You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.  // Ansel Adams

Whether you hire a photographer or pick up your iPhone camera more often, start off 2020 with photo goals. Think ahead what characteristics and everyday happenings of your family you can document. Your new year and another decade of real, messy life + love is an art to be appreciated.

  • Every time my husband mows the lawn, my young boys run to grab their own toy lawnmowers and fuel up with imaginary gas before they get to work
  • Julie is having her third child and her first home birth
  • Every winter the McDermitt kids firmly pack snow onto the 10 front steps to their house and sled down it
  • Eliza + her family love the mountains, so they spend all their free time in their cabin on the Blue Ridge Parkway
  • Brothers Brayden + Bryce go outside to dance in puddles after every rain storm
  • George + Melissa take their kids apple-picking every Fall to bring bushels of apples home for a apple-pie-baking marathon
  • Megan + Felix reserve every Saturday morning to walk to their local farmer's market, then prepare a supper for friends with all their fresh ingredients
  • Ben + Rachel run an organic vegetable farm while they flip a 19th century barn
  • Mindy loves Autumn so much that she makes a spreadsheet of all available activities in her area to make sure she gets to as many as possible with her family
  • Margo + her family of six have epic nerf gun battles every Friday night
  • My boys + I throw down a floral tablecloth in our backyard every other day in the hot summer months to chow down on freshly cut watermelon slices
