Meet the Conways

It's not every day that you come across a man changing clothes on the side of the road. As he changed his shirt, cars passed and we laughed. Then we kept right on laughing for the next half an hour. I knew from the beginning that they were a moustache family, and not every family is a moustache family. Some are pinwheel families, some are bubble families, and some are kissing families. I've pulled out the moustaches a few times. Sometimes it's on the family's request, but this time it was my request. Dad and son are master and apprentice when it comes to dry humor. And the moustache? Well, it just belonged on them.

The more families I shoot, the more I know this is what I love to do. Family is precious. Family is a gift. Some days being a family is easy and some days being a family is really hard work. But in the end it's the most important thing we will ever do.






The love here is real. I think this was my favorite moment in the session. I don't know what he was saying or what she was saying, but I have a whole series of them smiling and nuzzling.
