Children make you want to start life over. ~Muhammad Ali
A very dear friend had a baby not to long ago. I have been far away and not realizing how long it’s actually been I came ready to shoot a little baby only to find a boy.
Bodhi immediately began to show off his new Christmas tool set upon my arrival. A spitting image of his father, Ian, Bodhi had no trouble keeping busy and being industrious. Christmas was good to Bodhi this year. With his new tool set, work bench and assorted firetrucks and infrastructure I am sure Bodhi wouldn’t have any problem building our next city. Not bad for 16 months.
Children are an absolute blast to photograph. The mood changes, attention wanders and one has to learn to engage with patience. I love it. The challenge is fresh, new and fun.
Following Bodhi around and hanging out with Tiff for about two hours gave me the chance for an incredible visit with a dear friend, some serious catching up and the actual time to meet and get to know her beautiful new son. We are all so busy, this visit made me reflect and the quote of Muhammad Ali above definitely came to mind.
Thank you Tiff! You are truly blessed.
