Betz Wedding- Southern Michigan Wedding Photographer- Sycamore Lane Photography

 

December 5 on 5

Firsts.

This one ranks right up there with first steps, the first belly laugh, his first words, and his first day of school. Then before you know it he's learning to shave.  Another first, but one that leads from boyhood to manhood.

We all crowded just outside the door watching the grand unfolding before us.  At first he didn't want me taking photos, but he relented when I said I wouldn't put them on Facebook.  I snapped away and laughed as my husband bantered back and forth with him.

I never imagined that what I got in camera would blow me away when I first saw it come up on my computer screen.

This moment makes the writer in me go speechless.

Words flee and emotion wells.

This is life lived to its fullest.

For more documentary goodness visit... Danielle whose photos are full of life and emotion!

For all my documentary friends on FB who have already seen this... sorry for the repeat.  I had to blog this.  I went back and forth several times and even started over with other photos of our tree decorating, but in the end I knew this was the set of 5 I wanted for this month.
