Although shooting kids and infants is not my main focus as a photographer, I absolutely love taking pictures of them. Having two of my own kids, I know something of that eternal, inseparable human bond that is the essence of human civilization – the essence of purpose, focus, connection, and direction, and often even striving.
A world of truth and evidence of existence, mystery, and wonder is contained in the eyes of an infant – and even more so when you see the way they lovingly gaze at their parents. I love the way Reid is looking at his parents in these shots, even at only two months old. I love the way he seems to be basking in his Father’s arms. Would that we all work hard to maintain and improve and intensify those loves and bonds of earth that will eventually slip our grasp, but are incomparably priceless in light of most of what we encounter here on Earth.
