Hello Warrick

    |    Posted by Becca on March 1st, 2009    |    Portrait life

I really revel in the experience of shooting portrait sessions at people’s homes.  A portrait is an encapsulation of who someone is at a certain point of time, so what better way to convey that than to be in that person’s “natural habitat”?  I don’t even think we realize how much the light and colors in our house define our experience of the world.  So there is something so accurate and dear about pictures in that space.
My friends Betsy and Brett Olson welcomed their son Warrick into the world about 5 months ago.  They are awesome parents.  You will see it in these pictures.  They let him amaze them.  They take such joy in his every day and his growth and exploration.  My overall impression being around them as parents is that their laid back attitude is a result of seeing parenthood as a discovery and a journey rather than a duty.  Thanks for letting me in guys.  Enjoy!
