This image was taken when I was in college. It was my first Documentary assignment and I chose to photograph the two boys I was a nanny for. This shot was of Erick sleeping…

…the beauty of the light shining on him from the window as he napped…

…it reminds me of the possibilities of life in the sense of how a child sees it, new experiences, always learning, the laughter, the tears…

… all of it is what makes me overwhelmed with joy as I transition into becoming a mother myself.
