Violet is six and wasn’t much into looking my way with a smile.
Being six comes with being shy and a little ornery and honestly, at the time it seemed a bit of a challenge to get a good picture.
But the truth is she just wanted to be herself and do her thing and for that I’m grateful. I have found that photographs that endure are real moments and when a child is allowed to be as real as they want to be in front of my camera, I strike a little gold. So here are Violet’s “outtakes” which certainly are the good takes.
Monty - “…photographs that endure are real moments…” Well said my friend and these will matter for years and the story of this moment will be relived again!
