"Sisters, sisters there were never such devoted sisters..." When I had the opportunity to take Jane to my homeland of Redmond WA I arranged a great friend and photographer to do a little shoot for us. I got a little idea stuck in my head that wouldn't get out of having a "sisters/mom" photo while up there. It was a crazy busy weekend, but the hair brained idea was pulled off!
I love how a picture can be treasured for all time. It can be a part of a families history, for generations to come. This is why I desired this photo. I wanted to capture our families women together in a moment of time. There is so much JOY in families and so much you learn from one another. Is that not why we are meant to be in families!? There are things you cannot learn in any other way than from your parents or siblings, and then things you never dreamed of when you become a parent and have children. There is such importance in the family unit. And a sisters relationship is a unique one. I love the movie "Little Women" and watch it each year around Christmastime. The interactions and things learned between the March sisters reminds me so much of my own sisters. And Marmee is awesome!! She and my own Mama are two examples of a true mother. I cherish these photos and cherish the people in them. Hurray for women, sisters, mothers, families!
