it seems to get harder and harder to make this happen every year, but i am simply that much more determined to make it work. cherry blossom portraits with my girls for 2018. just because we live in virginia / dc doesn’t mean it has to be the tidal basin to make these memories work. just a 20 minute outing with the three of us (sometimes four) laughing, slipping on the slope of this familiar hill, and trying not to poke branches in our eyes while i make beauty out of their right now. the right now that has already turned into yesterday. xo
