We’ve had a few evenings of hard rain lately, so Eliza and I took advantage of the many puddles to photograph one of her favorite activities….jumping in puddles! She had a great time and I have “fun” trying to hold onto an umbrella and my camera at the same time!
I love the pictures that we got. Not because they’re painstakingly composed or technically perfect captures. But because they’re REAL. They’re an honest slice of our life right now. I will look back on these 10, 20, 30 years from now and will remember when Eliza was this small and when her idea of amazing parenting was my allowing her to jump in puddles until her dress was (in her terms) “squelching wet”.
THIS is exactly why I’m a photographer and why I love doing what I do. =)
