freckle faced under the cloudy sky

April 13, 2012




















Easter Sunday we sat under the sun streaming dappled through trees and I watched as he blew bubbles just for me. A breeze blew and I sat barefoot on the stoop, darting in and out of the grass and getting dirt on my knees. Clouds cast shadows but we took photos and I got that queer ache because I'm so unspeakably glad to be able to do what I love. I love people and love being able to celebrate who they are -- their lives, their passions, their stories. Just a set of shots of Caleb, but they're some of my favorites, because I feel like they really showcase who he is.

  4. This is simply wonderful, Hannah. Caleb is really sweet :) I blew bubbles with my (4) little brothers on Easter Sunday, too! Well, my aunt blew the bubbles. But I took the pictures.

  21. Hannah, I recently started following Fernweh Magazine. I had to! I left a comment on that site saying this, but I do a magazine layout structure on my photo blog. I write editorial captions on top of pictures, and do lots of conceptual shoots. Im glad I came over to your personal blog too. I feel like we already have a lot in common. Nice to meet you!
