introducing...a real day

this idea had several components
1st-i saw a piece on the wirken photography blog about a photo session that involves going to the family's home, spending several hours with them capturing everyday moments. i think the photographers at wirken are outstanding-and i love looking to them for inspiration...
2nd-i drove to tulsa and back in one day when my friend thuy had her baby. on that drive i decided that the idea of documenting 'a real day' captures what i like best about families and photography- honesty, emotion and beauty. somehow i wanted to incorporate it as an option for babydayphotography
3rd-i decided that this type of session would be a great way to highlight the families at IDC-to show how strong, devoted and hardworking they are in those moments not witnessed by anyone else
4th-i contacted the bertolino family-i have always loved this family since mira was in my baby class 5 years ago. they have all those outstanding qualities that i wanted to try to capture-plus i thought they would say yes...since they are creative and adventurous and appreciate photography
