I Capture Magical Winter Of My Children To Immortalize The Nostalgia Of Holiday Season

ADVERTISEMENT

On those short winter days when the roads are covered in snow, I take photos of my kids and their cousins to preserve the magic of this wonderful season. Both indoors and outdoors, during short days and long winter evenings, I capture the feeling of anticipation and nostalgia. With those photos I try to recall the feelings I used to have in my heart when I was a child and try to make others remember the magic of Christmas too.

My models are my two sons and my two nieces. My inspiration for those photos are animated movies, story books for children and life – watching kids as they play and memories from my own childhood. Although I take photos all year winter time has a special place in my heart with its special kind of magic.

Wow, these are some of the most gorgeous wintery photos I've ever seen! I tend to sometimes get annoyed with snow here in Canada, haha...but these photos make me really appreciate the magic of the winter season!

these are great, but I am kinda worries if you all live there, because in some of the pictures, it looks like there is lead paint! just concerned for the kids.

Thank you so much. I'm very happy you like my work. If you mean the old window, don't worry. This is not a window from your house. This is just an old house we have access to. My window is the one on the image titled ' waiting for Christmas'

I LOVE these, very soft, and dream like. One suggestion, the first one, the usage of the word "insomnia" I wish you would consider replacing with maybe "anticipation" or "excitement" Insomnia is usually link with adults who can't sleep, whereas in this instance, kids are TRYING to stay awake because they don't want to miss something. Great series though, gorgeous family.

Do you ever notice in the cold of winter and perhaps coinciding with those brief winter illnesses... there come vivid memories to the mind... ? it is almost as though you are there for a moment.

I loved everyone of your pictures. They were intriguing and soulful. The places and lighting were amazing. I'm a big fan and I live in the US Seattle WA.
