I don't share my photo shoots here very often, but I wanted to share this one with you that I did last weekend. This young mama is my favorite bohemian mama with her very creative, very artful, and very talented spirit. She is the one who made the beautiful floral crown and corsages for the bridal shower that I gave last February. I have taken her wedding pictures and pictures of her beautiful little girl over the years. For her daughter's 4th birthday, she wanted me to capture them as they are now - a wee glimpse into their moments and their love in the wee bit of time that we had. The summer heat was sweltering and she worried a bit about her baby girl's expressions - being only four and all and not smiling picture perfect and on cue. I told her that these four year old expressions are who she is right here and now. And that they were not only perfect, they were precious. What I didn't tell her is, that when the day comes years and years from now, as she sits down to view these photographs, her heart will most likely ache - as it remembers and as it would give anything to live these moments again. Life .... always fleeting.
And always precious.

What a beautiful family and what treasures these photographs are! Kim, you certainly captured their spirit and love.
I wanted you to know that I tracked down my very own copy of Somerset Life at Barnes and Noble featuring your article and photographs. The photos are fantastic and I am so proud and happy for you. It is another keepsake of your incredible talent.

Beautiful family and beautiful photographs. How lucky they are to have you capture this moment in time. Life is so fleeting, one must remember to enjoy every precious day. I received my ruthie picture today and was beyond delighted! It made me a bit sad to see her beautiful face. She will be loved everytime myself and all of the lucky people you gave a copy to look at her. And the other little beauty just melted my heart. Thank you so much for the wonderful treasures! You are a beautiful soul Kimberly!

Kim, your post hit home for me tonight and right away I noticed the tattoo on her arm and what it said. You see, I just did a post about my son's tattoo. Your pictures are so lovely of your friend and her daughter, and you really captured some wonderful face expressions on this little one, especially where she's enjoying her food. That last picture is precious. Wonderful job, Kim. I bet they were so pleased.
love, ~Sheri
