This family is my kind of family. They play together, they have a dog that plays hockey, and they love each other so obviously. See, this family is the kind of family I prefer to photograph because there is no faking it. There are no false smiles, no forced snuggles. They are authentic, and I am able to just catch all of the little moments. The love. The laughter. The ease of it all because it is unforced and completely natural to just live as you are, and not try hard to BE someone you are not. It’s not perfect, but then it is. Those are the photos that are important in the end. You can FEEL through looking at them, and that makes my heart happiest, even through the rain…of course, isn’t that what life is really about? Finding the joy in the rain?
Who will be next to show me how YOUR family plays and loves? Please enjoy the Geddes family!
