all in the family

/

The people that Silverbox has brought into my life is well beyond words. I have been blessed to photograph so many children from birth. Year after year, I get to capture their growth and personality change. I'm not sure how I got dealt this hand in life, but darn it if I'm not the luckiest gal. These kids are like family to me.

I've photographed each one of these kiddos since birth.  Do I feel like one of the family when we see each other? You better believe it.

At Silverbox we do a lot of high fives, hugs and lollipops. Thank you to each and every client that has considers Silverbox family.

Invest in Apple

/

A couple weeks ago I had the honor of photographing a married couple of 68 years. They’re both 88. I also created a list of questions that I’d ask while photographing. We audio recorded their answers during the photo session, and we're oh-so-thankful we did.

Our next step is to design an album for each of their children with these loving photos of their mother and father, along with the commentary within it’s pages.

Photographing these two was an honest-to-goodness reminder to slow down. Take a break once in a while. Look around. Take a deep breath. Sing a little. Everything is going to be fine.

"If you could go back to when you were 18 yrs old and give yourself advice, what would it be?”

Earl: (without hesitation) "Invest in Apple."
