I have so many images to go through from our vacation to the beach this year, but for now, I wanted to share some of the images that I had in mind for hanging in our home. I wanted close-up images of each of my children, but instead of processing in my normal clean, colorful style, I challenged myself to create some beautiful black and white images. I’m so in love with the results, and love that I didn’t “clean up” the sand on their faces and such – I wanted to be reminded of the beach when I look at these images (even if the kids weren’t really into the beach this year!).
