This is the last of the portrait together once a month. You can find all of them here or under the instagram hashtag #eliottandlily2017. What a crazy year it has been! Another year of learning through taking their portraits. And I'm so happy to end it on a beautiful collaboration with light maker Ekaterina Galera. You can check her website for her beautiful creations and also the lookbook she did of my pictures. very beautiful!As I quoted before: "We must bring our own light to the darkness" Bukowski. And believe me, those little magic clouds will definitely do that:

Portrait of my children in 2017 - Five
We did a little experimentation for this 5th portraits together once a month session. With lights and darkness. The result isn't what I expected but as far as experiments go, I can still be pretty happy. Once again, it was too cold and you can probably see that on Eliott's face or body language. But still, it was fun:“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”― Martin Luther King Jr., A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and SpeechesSo we had the lights. Now here is to hope that there is love too between those two ;)I tried to experiment with light after my findings with the coach I saw and talked about in Woodland reveries, the third portrait of them this year. I love to try to seek a bit of magic in photography and in life and light is the best way to do it. I'm always compelled to pictures that have some interesting, amazing, beautiful lights. And I hope that wherever they go, whatever they do, they'll have love and light to guide them throughYou can see the heart shape right? This session didn't run out like I had imagined when I started saving pictures on my pinterest. But it was still an interesting step forward, what do you think?I hope you enjoyed it. Till the next portrait! Meanwhile, let me know what you think.
