12 yr old work.
When I took this set, I had been photographing weddings full-time for about 7 years. A wedding every weekend, sometimes two, while also doing engagement photos and other lifestyle sessions during the week.
I was having a lot of traction and making photos for a living, but I was stretching myself to the max. I was exhausted, anxious all the time, and had completely lost myself. Eventually, I wasn’t having much fun anymore and my health was taking a toll, especially while doing all of that and raising my son.
My son was two around the time we shot these, and these images sparked something in me and affirmed that something had to give.
I see a beautiful set and great lighting, but I also see my story.
