Erin contacted me to photograph her family a couple of months ago, and I was delighted with the prospects and challenge of such a troupe to capture. As you may have read, I prefer to photograph children and families in their element; take candid photos of them doing what they do rather than posing in a studio. And I was excited to hear that Erin was open to trying anything that would show her family naturally and relaxed.
We took photos in their lovely home, on an overcast day too chilli for outdoor adventures. The kids played and the adults snuggled on the couch. It was calmed and fun and warm, no stress or speedy directions or snappy comments. And later on, when they all sat down and shared a Curious George story by the bay window, I am sure Amelia was there in spirit, attentively listening, and joining the circle.
