  • Big family man - I have cool parents, two amazing sisters and two nieces

My Why

 

When photos feel like home.

As I get older, the more I appreciate visual reminders of where I've been and who I've loved. I want to remember. I want to remember my grandmother's warm, expressive eyes, my dad's playfulness, my mom's singing voice, the smoky light in my great aunt's library. When I look at these photos from my childhood, I feel grounded and grateful for the life that I've lived.


I want you to have that, too.
