The kids were playing in the bath tub ... together. What's so special about that, you ask? Well, we take turns giving them a bath and we usually start with one fellow, give him a bath and then go on to the next one. Makes sense to us to have such a routine down, right? If you are a parent you know all about structuring your day.
Sangeetha, however, decided to handle them both at the same time. It was an experiment that I think we were only willing to try over a quiet weekend. She signaled to me to bring my camera up for a rather rare moment in history. This probably won't happen again for some time or ever again.
Ketan, our younger one, is awfully independent and very particular about his space. Rohan, the more easy going one, would love to jump in and play around. So, it will all have to do with how Ketan feels about it, I guess.
I decided to send this in to be printed on Kodak's Endura Metallic Paper, a first for me. I am curious to see what it will look like. And yes, it will be a print for Sangeetha to hang in the house, wherever she feels it will be appropriate.
Documenting the life of my children is very important to me. While I can't always be in the frame with them, I think I found a rather interesting way of including myself.
What do you think? Would you value a documentary photographer visit your family on specific days and throughout the year to work on a day-in-the-life type coffee table book? If you are in Connecticut and reading this, please contact me if you are interested. I would love to work with you to create a piece of history for your family. |
