Go with the Grain



I am a little obsessed with my need to make new things look old lately. I am having fun with pictures that I have taken of my little guy recently. I look back at my baby pictures around this age and I see so many similarities. I look for ways to recreate those shots and when it comes together it just melts my heart.

I am especially fond of grain right now. It has this aged yet very real feel. A bit gritty and not perfect. Down to the smudge of food that I could have wiped off but didn't. He won't be this little forever and there will be a time when he can wipe his own face. I hope he looks back and laughs.

What's in your past that's inspiring you photographically?
