FAMILY DOCUMENTARY


This is the original way to photograph your family, just preserves the story of your family right now. There is no posing and no direction, but you will keep the simply honest moments beautifully photographed.

My Family Documentary project

"Good Morning"


I think the real moments are more important than technical perfection. I captured the morning moments in my daughter's bedroom in this project. 


Every morning, I feel in a rush, but my four-year-old daughter is still a calm late riser. 


Children are never pretentious in front of the camera, it also makes it easier for me to record these photos using family documentary methods.


Although the photos I took were on many different mornings, they were all her mornings.
