daybooks

I am pleased to introduce Daybooks. A Daybook is a photo essay based on a day in the life of a child, a family, or a new mother. Using black and white film, natural light and quiet observation, I craft an extended portrait of a day in the life of your family. I love to incorporate handwritten stories, handprints, grocery lists, letters -- details that make the story of your family special.

A Daybook can commorate a special day, like the first day of kindergarten, a birthday, a haircut, or a visit from grandma. Or it can commemorate everything special about an ordinary day. Either way, your Daybook becomes a central part of your family's history, a glimpse into the inner life of an emerging family.

A complete day book is presented as a thirty-page, custom printed, handmade archival black and white book.
