I plan a shoot for each of my children when they have a birthday– there is a theme in my mind that is unique to each child. For Francis, nicknamed Fra, I knew I wanted nature … but I didn’t have quite the right idea yet– until the winter snows started to melt and the river swelled and overflowed… that wild river, the last years growth and the early golden spring light– this was just right for my beautiful, nature loving, middle child.
