We measure our lives by the extravagant and important events: births, baptisms, graduations, and weddings. When really, those are just the landmarks that stand out along the way. They say life is what happens when you're not watching: the ordinary, exquisite little moments. Those are what I want to immortalize with photography. The beauty of the ordinary. The impish smile of a toddler just before he tackles his big sister; the softening of a young man when he looks at his wife and newborn; the high school graduate who faces the world with her shoulders thrown back in wide open innocence.
You're already extraordinary. I'm just here to show you the pictures.
