I LOVE shooting Life Sessions!
There are several reasons why I apply a documentary approach to family portraits pictures. One of those reasons is the ability to just be free. During Life Sessions, I'm the witness. To my clients, I am a ghost. When that camera comes up, my entire world changes. Everything is blocked out. I don't hear anything. All I see is 2 things...the light...and my subjects. I become part of time, thus becoming part of the moment. Having this sort of connection is....creepy...yes...but it allows me to detach myself from reality...just for long enough to produce what I see.
Last night, what I saw was such a genuine family. Their hearts are big, their personalities shine, and little George....well...little George is the Sun that shines brightly in this family's universe. Even though it was a tad bit cold, the warmth coming from this family was enough to keep everyone on the beach warm.
This is the Matzke Family's Life, the way I see it.
More flying babies! I have nothing to do with this. I think either; all parents do this, or they see it on my blog.
John, and George :)
Run George!
They're going down!
So cute!!
Dude...that would be SO cool if like...we we're thrown around. You know....you could have like a big....15 foot high...fake parent that you could get in the seat....and the fake parent would throw you up in the air....that would be sweet!
Lacrosse time!
Happy family!
George and George!
