"A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013."

Che: Begging to play battleships on the iPad. 

Poet: In the winter garden, cake crumbs on her lips (bonnet by Dover & Madden, cardigan by babaa). 

We are so close to winter now; the light has changed, the shadows are darker, the chill has arrived.

My friend Tim messaged me a few weeks ago after he'd spent a good while clicking on your portrait links. "There are some incredible people taking part in your portrait series. They're unknown to me but I love their work." In a few days time Tim and his beautiful family will fly north to spend five weeks in the UK and Europe. He's shooting a wedding in country England and he's hosting his rather famous The Nursery in London on June 19th. If you're in or around London and want to learn more about shooting on manual, engaging with your subject and taking better photos, I highly recommend it. You can read my review of The Nursery here and if you want to book, go here.

I met beautiful Tara when she attended The Creatives and since then I have been floored by her photos. This shot of her son, Ba'il, is unforgettable / Beautiful children in a loving home (regardless of the misery of a virus!) / I adore Victoria's portraits; the light, mood and composition / blue eyes, green eyes; windows to the soul / oh beauty! - magical light behind these brothers.
