simple & candid, in beautiful light

This is a session that I really like to look at. It seems so effortless and simple and real and beautiful – the love we can see breathing through the images. There were so many things that just clicked together on this lovely evening at the beach in low tide. The tire tracks in the sand, the emptiness, the light, the wind. I can’t get enough of the girls’ hair blowing in the wind. I can’t get enough of the amazing interactions they graced me with.

  1. As always your images are achingly beautiful, simple and deeply inspirational.

    If there is an animus, an essence, that makes living people from our constituent parts, then you have captured the same essence and given us living photographs from their constituent captured light.

  5. Tara…Oh how I would love to be a fly on anywhere you go to take pictures! I love your style and your freedom with the camera! My dream in this whole wide world is so much bigger than a trip to Disneyworld! It is to spend a day with you taking pictures! For right now…I will settle for the blog! Keep up the good work!

  6. Beautiful Tara! If I ever make it out to CA with my children, I want a shoot on the beach with reflections in the sand. I would definitely bring along my Canon gear to capture some reflections myself. :-) (Still hope you’ll make it to Toronto one day though!)
