caleb

this is my sweet caleb, boy #2. he just turned 7 and is as serious as his close up below, but as silly as the crazy face picture. he is a freakishly smart child who loves to read, count things, and print perfectly. he is super sensitive & thoughtful and a wonderful big brother to his best buddy, abram. his cowlick and chocolate brown eyes are irreplaceable.

my favorite subjects are, of course, my own kiddos. so, i will introduce you now to eli, my oldest. he is quickly approaching double digits which is unreal to me, but something i'm gonna have to accept regardless. he's a lover of books, master lego builder, bossy leader, amazing writer, and karate kid. oh, and quite handsome, if i do say so myself :)

this is how it started

when i uploaded this picture last winter, i knew i wanted to pursue my photography dream. it looked just like this, unedited, straight from my new "real" camera. a priceless shot that captured my heart and gave me the passion & confidence to try something new. i love this.
