to live a life that dwarfs you

I love

the moments of life

that absolutely

dwarf you.

That show you where

you fit

and how small

you are.

That remind you

that we

are specks of dust

caught up

in a tornado

and we

never even knew

we are 

spinning.

This post has been a long time coming.  I shot this gorgeous family so long ago now!! And my poor neglected blog is only just getting to see them!  I absolutely adore this family….and I absolutely loved their session.  I’ve known this family for many years now.  I knew them when they were a married couple.  I remember their children as babies, and I’ve loved watching them grow into amazing little people – now big people!  We would see each other, almost yearly, at our favourite family annual holiday in the beautiful beachside town of Kalbarri, WA.  Our extended families and friends shared some amazing holidays together in that sweet small town.  And this beautiful family, were certainly one of the many highlights.  It is such an honour when someone you think so highly of, sets the task of capturing their family.  You hope that you help capture the special bonds, and sweet little mannerisms and relationships that they share.  How a mother breathes in her child; how a father delights in the laughter of his children; how those children who are so rambunctious one minute, will tenderly hold the ones that guide them through the chaos of life.  The beauty of a family; the joy within a family.  Those are the moments that absolutely dwarf you…and you realise you’re exactly where you should be.  This family – I do love them so…xx
