I love photographing children! I love telling stories with my images. I become a child myself and get completely immersed in an imaginary world of dreams and fantasy that I remember living in as a child when life was my playground and anything was possible. Remember those days? I think I am still living in that world!
When I work with children, I always try to get a sense of their world. What are they interested in? What makes them laugh? What do they like to do for fun? For me, it is all about creating an image that tells a story and capturing an emotion. For this photography project, the children are thrilled when they find out the story is about them and their best friend! I truly enjoyed learning about why their dog is so special to them. There is nothing like the bond between a child and a dog. In most cases, that relationship is unbreakable. These images are a testament to the power of that love.
