The Eyes of a Child

Wiggly, giggly, and full of life, those are my favorite ones to shoot. They wear their personalities like some wear their hearts, right on the edge of their sleeve. And don't think for a minute these wiggly giggly ones have time for a girl and her camera. I don't have enough jokes stockpiled or crazy faces memorized to entertain them for long. One quick glance and then they're gone - onto something more exciting than the same old black rectangle that doesn't even emit a flash.

But often one quick glance is enough. It's enough time to capture their eyes full of sparkle and mischief and wonder. And, oh what the rest of the world could learn from these eyes filled with sparkle and mischief and wonder. To have the eyes of a child is the greatest gift of all.

We've been friends with the Kaluas for quite some time and to say that I enjoy working with their girls is an understatement. Their four year old reminds me so much of my own little spitfire and I love to watch her go. Their oldest is beyond brilliant. Her mind absolutely amazes me and I can't wait to see what disease she ends up curing or what modern day marvel she invents. Love you guys!
