It was my third time to photograph this very photogenic family in twelve months. The mom has a genuine appreciation for photography and loves to be surrounded by photographs of her family. When I got to their home, the entire living room was full of Sandra Jolly Photography prints! Cue a happy dance from me! We had lots of fun indoors, before wrapping up and going out in the snow. It's the perfect way to photograph a family at this time of year :)
Sometimes in life you get lucky and you find the perfect climbing tree.
When I get a chance to jump off life's ferris wheel I grab it. Routine and structure really grind me down and chip away at my spirit. Sometimes in life, it really is nice to just freestyle - get on a train, explore a different part of town, go to a new cafe and try their french toast and maple syrup. For an added bonus, take one of your children. Look into their eyes when they're talking, make them feel like they're the centre of the universe, walk hand in hand together and look at the world through that child's eyes. Childhood is the most fleeting season of all...
I need to do more shoots in town! Finding empty streets was a bit challenging, but we got lucky after exploring, oh, and waiting for the postman to cycle out of the frame ;)
