When our guys were little, (a couple of weeks ago), it was hard to imagine they would grow so quickly into handsome young men and women so soon. But it does, in the blink of an eye, it seems!I have a snapshot of my son at six months old on my desk. We were bathing him in the kitchen sink of a house we were in the middle of moving into. He's chewing on the washcloth and his very blonde, wet hair is scooped up into a mohawk. This shot is precious to me. It captured an irreplaceable moment.
This is why "Leaving The Nest" portraits are so important. Everyone's life changes after they graduate high school and head off to college. The family dynamic changes as do the individuals. They become adults, finish college, get married and have babies of their own, the circle of life.
Before my son heads off to college, there will be portraits taken and they will hang in the same room the bath-in-the-sink picture is in, and I will look at them every day and cherish those times and wonder how quickly they passed.
