She has been feeling this transition so deeply. Miss Janet told me that the last day of school, Pearl cried over and over again. They had to hold her, read to her, etc. That broke my heart. These pictures do too, because they so perfectly reflect how she has felt about this whole thing. The smile in the second one is not her natural smile. It is her brave smile, and that is what she has been.
Sarah and Adrea share in-laws, an appreciation for chocolate chip cookies, and a love for photography.
Adrea grew up in Southern California driving her family and friends crazy by taking random pictures of them. She graduated Westmont College double-majoring in Art and English. She currently stays home where her job is to keep three beautiful kids and a super cool husband happy and generally well fed. Adrea adamantly believes in the power of a picture and thinks everyone deserves a really artsy photographer to come into their home and document their family in a beautiful way. She does not, however, know how to get anywhere, so that is an obstacle.
Sarah grew up in Northern California, and clearly remembers her first photo (of a beaten barn) taken with her father's camera when she was 7. Her love of photography, and things beaten and run down, grew from there. She worked as a photographer throughout high school and college, and to this day cannot resist snapping up old chairs and armoires (and the occasional home) to refurbish. Sarah has a degree in Social Work and is a busy collector of hobbies; anything that explores her three loves: people, music and art. Most days you can find her at home nurturing her curious son, hilarious husband and holding either a measuring spoon, a paint brush, a sewing needle, or a camera.
Sarah and Adrea set up this site as part portfolio, part experiment, part team-building exercise.
We hope you enjoy our journey. **We are looking for willing models, but we would probably prefer to know them, or know someone who knows them as we are not officially in business... nor have we figured out some rather important logistics... like printing our photographs independently for example.
** We love that people are starting to actually ask for us - we have started to institute a sitting fee in order to justify our time away to our husbands.
