They truly are. Beautiful. In so many ways. They are patient, kind, loving, and genuine. This is the Rice Family. I joined them on their sunfilled farm last month and I had a wonderful time! Thank you, Rice Family, for allowing me into your lives and your home! I so enjoyed my time witnessing your family’s loveliness.
And, OH, what a better world this would be if every family had children who hold on to every word their mother says like these children do…and a husband who looks so adoringly upon his wife…and siblings who obviously care for and trust one another. And, if only every mother could be so tender and sweet with her children. Being able to capture the kind of love this family has is one of the main reasons I love photography so much. They are blessed, for sure! And, I am blessed for knowing them.
And, one last shot that was just for fun…to remember the trek we made down the dirt road that hot evening in July…waiting (no, begging) for a truck to spin-up some dust for us. I love me some spun-up dust on dirt roads. But, the rain from the previous night didn’t allow it. Oh, well. One more great memory.
