Lorinda and Sarah: The First Three Years

When Lorinda gave birth to Sarah, it was Lorinda's first time to be a mother and, of course, Sarah's first time to be daughter. For the first three years, as their special relationship began to form, I documented their relationship and growth. The series conveys the reality of those years, not a sterilized view or retouched images. Exhausted days look like exhausted days, just as fun times are revealed for the fun that they are. Sarah is now 12 years old, yet the experiences and images created during that time have made an imprint on the entire family.
