For me that means that I am more cautious about high risk scenerios (sky diving) and less cautious about low risk scenerios (holding a tame boa constrictor). It means that I treasure every moment with my daughter. Every time I feed her or snuggle her to sleep, I store that memory away. It means that every time I get to dance in the kitchen with my husband I make an effort to breathe deeply and be totally present. These times are fleeting and I don't want to miss a second.
It also means that I want to record memories in a more tangible way for myself and my loved ones. I want to photograph meaningful moments in our lives without being removed from the moment itself. It means I am highly motivated to learn how to document the tiny life that has been entrusted to me through photos and engaging storytelling.
To this end, I am making a deliberate effort to improve my photography and writing skills, as well as snatching any opportunity to document Ellie's days.
These are some of my recent efforts.
