Every time that I edit photos that I know my clients will cherish for the rest of their lives, I'm reminded that the best things in life aren't things at all. They are the people, places, and memories that hold our hearts. Mother's Day is coming up and this is your PSA: if you don't know what gifts to give this Mother's day, give the gift of memories. It is the gift that is always welcomed and here are some ideas. 💡 A gift certificate for a family portrait session 💡 A piece of wall art of a beloved photo that has a special meaning. 💡 Schedule a portrait session of your children, take them to the session, then print up an album or a wall art piece (or pieces) from the session. This last one is my absolute favorite and I would 10/10 recommend, not just as a photographer but as a mom. And if you are a mom who is wanting any of these gift ideas? I am a firm believer in 1. Communicating clearly what you want (vs relying on hints that may seem obvious to you) and 2. Self-gifting. Either of these options will do! ❤️ #portraitphotographer #travelingphotographer #familyphotography #onlocation #germany #mothersday #motherhood #memories.

"Why would I want photos of us getting our baby ready for bed?" 👇 (Share this with someone who needs to read it!) This. This image is why. Because these sweet little moments are fleeting. And while there are many more sweet little moments to come, they change with every age and stage. It won't be long before bed time looks different. It won't be long before your tiny human has moved on to new firsts and new favourites. It won't be long until they have outgrown that sweet little sleeper. It won't be long before little moments like this feel fuzzy, or get lost in the busy of what's next. Your family photos should help you remember the little things that would otherwise be lost to time. They should help tell your family's stories. Booking Summer and Fall 2024 - if you would like family photos that tell your story, I'd love to talk. . . #ptbo #kawarthalakes #documentaryphotography #documentaryfamilyphotography #peterboroughphotographer #familyphotoshoot #familyphotos #torontomoms #torontophotographer #torontofamilyphotographer #torontokids #familygathering #familyreunion #peterboroughontario #familyparty #gentleparenting #familyparty #reportagephotography #momentsmatter #jordanlyallphotography #documentingchildhood #familyphotojournalism #littlethings #smallbizptbo #lovelocalptbo #teamptbo

Love is a universal language that transcends borders, cultures, and time. As a photographer, I have a unique opportunity to capture the essence of love in all its forms through my lens. Whether it's the tender embrace of a couple against a breathtaking sunset, the joyful laughter of a family sharing a moment together, or the unconditional bond between a pet and its owner, love manifests itself in myriad ways. In my work, I strive to immortalize these precious moments, allowing others to experience the warmth and beauty of love captured in a single frame. From intimate portraits to candid snapshots, each photograph tells a story of connection, affection, and the human experience. As I explore different locations, I am constantly inspired by the love that permeates through diverse communities and landscapes. Whether I'm photographing a wedding in a bustling city or capturing the quiet romance of a secluded beach, love is always present, waiting to be discovered and celebrated. Through my lens, I invite viewers to pause and reflect on the power of love in their own lives. Whether they're admiring a photograph on my website, leepitts.pics, or browsing through my portfolio, my goal is to evoke emotions and inspire a deeper appreciation for the bonds that unite us all. Join me on a journey of love, captured one frame at a time. Together, let's celebrate the beauty of human connection and the enduring power of love in all its forms. Trust in my expertise and dedication to deliver photographs that not only capture moments but also convey the heartfelt emotions behind them. Let's create memories that will be cherished for a lifetime. #LovePhotography #RomanticMoments #FamilyLove #PetLove #WeddingPhotography #CoupleGoals #EmbraceLife #EternalLove #HeartwarmingMoments #CaptureTheLove #TenderMoments #ConnectionThroughLens #LoveInTheLens #CherishedMemories #PhotographyIsLove #Leepittsphotography

This is my 1,798th post! Photography has always been a passion of mine, and this platform is such a meaningful way for me to share that creative outlet. I’m also thrilled to know there are others in our bronchiectasis community who share this love of photography. I can’t wait to feature them and their incredible work in the future. That said, my favorite photograph of all time wasn’t taken by me. It’s a heartwarming shot of bronchi-sister Glenda’s grandson. Several Christmases ago, he received a toy drill as a gift, but having watched his grandma nebulize so often, he thought it was his very own nebulizer💚💜❤️ Moments like this remind us that living with bronchiectasis is a family affair. Rather than feeling ashamed of a condition that requires us to clear mucus multiple times a day, we can embrace the hidden lessons our disease offers. It teaches our children and grandchildren that life isn’t always perfect, but when challenges arise, we adapt and do what we can to thrive. If that’s not a life lesson worth celebrating, I don’t know what is! Wishing everyone a joyous week filled with family, good food, and plenty of laughter. #Bronchiectasis #BronchiectasisAwareness #ChronicIllness #ChronicCondition #RespiratoryHealth #SelfCare #FamilySupport #InvisibleIllness #PatientSupport #PhotographyLovers #CommunitySupport #LifeLessons #PositiveMindset #OvercomingChallenges #AdaptAndThrive #Gratitude #HealthJourney #Inspiration #NebulizerLife #ParentingWithPurpose #GrandparentLove #FamilyMatters #PhotographyCommunity #ChronicIllnessWarrior #HiddenStrengths #MindfulLiving

When I grow up I want to be brave. Francis, UT. 2024 In my art, I try to see the world through the eyes of children. This photo is a reflection of that—a way for me to engage with the world differently, with curiosity and wonder. Photography allows me to challenge what I think I know about life, people, animals, and nature. Photographing children, in particular, has given me the chance to revisit my perspective on life. As I grow older, I think more about raising a family and the kind of life I want for myself. My art gives me the space to reflect on those questions, even as I navigate living further from my mom, being estranged from my father, and dealing with the challenges that adulthood inevitably brings. These experiences weigh on me at times, but when I photograph children, I find a chance to reconnect with the curiosity and potential that once seemed so abundant. In these moments, I can challenge the cynicism I've built up over time, and rediscover the beauty in uncertainty. — Inquire about a shoot at Sethstern.com #westernphotographer #westernphotography #westernstyle #westernlifestyle #rodeo #western #cowboys #cowboyphotographer #utah #slc #utahphotographer #slcphotographer #photography #explore #fyp #photographer #sethstern #digitalmarketing #marketing

How do you remember the important people and events in your life? For many of us, photos serve as a powerful bridge to our past. They freeze moments in time, allowing us to revisit cherished memories and connect with loved ones, even those who may no longer be with us. Family photos, in particular, hold immense value. They tell our stories and preserve our legacies. Yet, how often do we take the time to reflect on these images and the memories they encapsulate? As a Certified Professional Photo Manager, I’ve seen firsthand how the next generation may not share the same memories we do. That’s why it’s crucial to pass down not just the photos, but the stories behind them. Imagine sitting down with your loved ones, and sharing the tales that bring those images to life. It’s a beautiful way to ensure that your family history is preserved and cherished for years to come. Remember, photos are always important but never urgent… until it’s too late! Don’t wait to digitize, organize, or restore those precious memories. Use your photos to tell your stories so they will last for generations. I’d love to hear from you! How do you keep your family memories alive? Do you have a favorite photo that tells a special story?

With the Holidays in full swing, many of you will be taking many (more) pictures than you already do...and you will be in more than usual as well. I thought this week I'd give you a few tips that might make your experience, and your results, better. 1) Sometimes there are several people taking pictures of a group of people. It makes a much bigger impact when everyone is looking in the same direction. I wait until everyone else is finishing, and then say, "Everyone look this way!" and snap it. Your picture will be the best one. 2) When photographing a group, notice where the faces are in relation to one another. If the faces are grouped well, the image will be better than if you don't pay attention to it. The should be consistently spaced, and not one on top of the other like a totem pole. 3) Take a quick look at the background before you take the photo. Make sure there isn't someone right over the shoulder of your subject, or a brightly colored distraction. The picture isn't just the subject, it is both the subject and the background, and the background matters. Hope these help...enjoy your holidays, and come away with great images to remember them. #lauraseyesphoto #commercialphotographer #annapolisphotographer #severnaparkphotographer #eventphotographer #portraitphotographer #
