Reposting this bc Instagram took the original down (so my utmost apologies if you took the time to leave a thoughtful comment). Also reposting bc I feel like this is such an important topic. As a photographer, people most often choose to book family photos when life feels idyllic and everything feels great. But investing in family photos when life feels hard, I think we (have the opportunity to) feel the truest power of what photography can offer us. Healing. Perspective. A reminder of the truth. If you’re interested in reading more of my thoughts on this topic, go to the link in my bio. Or feel free to stay and simply enjoy this Polaroid @danielle.dolan took of my husband and I. When life felt like one big beautiful dumpster fire 🔥💖 #familyphotography #familyphotographer #friggenfilm
