One January morning I went to Stoughton to photograph this lovely family in their beautiful home. There is something about photographing a family in their home that just hits different than when I meet them in a park. I get to capture them in their space, the space they live their daily lives in. Mabel will look back on these images when she grows up and see the art hanging on the walls, the quilts her Mom made draped on the furniture, the sourdough bread her Dad made sitting on the kitchen counter and it all tells a story for her - she will get that warm “feels like home” feeling.
I’m not going to lie - I miss photographing people, I miss being invited into peoples homes and document their day. On March 7th I went over to meet this lovely family in their beautiful home and I didn’t know it would be my last family session for awhile. It was just starting to feel like spring, that feeling where you know hibernation is coming to an end and soon you will be meeting up with friends at outdoor cafes and hosting grill outs. We spent some time in their beautifully lit home and then went for a walk out on the tracks just out in their backyard - it was a simple day in the life of this family and I got to document it.
I photographed Katie and Trent when they first got engaged then I documented their wedding day and when their first was born I did a session with them in their condo and now they have 2 wild and lovely boys and they asked me again to come photograph life in their new home. I love this, and by this I mean couples coming back and asking me to photograph their life. So here is a Friday morning at the Osterholz Home.
