Family and Photography

I totally and utterly love Michal Rubin's exquisite Photography! Her photographs are all magnificent and so very nicely composed.

Thank you so much, Michal. We are so lucky to have you out there.

I would love to ask you, my sweet readers. Do you have any children? If yes, what are their names and ages?
If no, do you want to have kids someday? Just curious. I'd love to hear. xx

  3. Good morning to u too my sweet BFF! Hope u had a wonderful weekend and an even better week ahead. We woke up to more dang snow this morning and that does not make me very happy all. Lol. Anyway these photos are just gorgeous! He does such a wonderful job! I wish I could find someone to capture some nice photos of me and my family before my kids are grown and gone. They are Alliye and Michael both 17 years old and are almost gone now. We rarely see them anymore and it makes me so sad. :o(. Have a great day my sweets and thanks for stopping by to say hello! Xoxoxo

  8. Those portraits are amazing! I wanted to go to a portrait photography masterclass but noticed too late that it was £115 not the normal £30 that the Photo School charges for their classes. Maybe I can go in a month or two.

  9. Oh, sorry, no children for us. We're at the final stages of confirming that we're not able but we're okay with that now.

  10. hey ritsa, i happen to know, you're my cousin..haha!

  11. Still I am very young for having kids.I like kids maybe the children of other people' most.The creation of a family depends from luck.In some people happen but in others not.

    One son - Daniel, 9 months.

    I plan to give him brothers and sisters too! :)

    I love baby/child photography. It's the kind of thing I'd splash out on to get someone to take some really beautiful photos of me and my kid(s). I'm the only one in my house who takes photos (and I'm by no means a professional) so there are never any photos of me *with* Daniel!!

    I like these photos, too.

    My kids are 11 (Zach) and 8 (Jackson). Oh, we also have a 2 year old hamster, King Hampton the First.

  14. i know exactly what you mean, diamondsonmysoles, i hope that you find someone to photograph you with baby Daniel soon. xx

  15. These are all very precious, the kind of captures we all wish for.

    I have two step-children; Racheal 41 and Ryan 37. Plus a passel of grandkids.

    ReplyDelete
  16. What great images, especially the last two.

    No children, a long story but I never wanted them. Not that we don't like children, we helped raise Niece #1 and Nephew plus we work(ed) with children. I was a primary school teaching assistant and Husband dearest is a youth worker. What about you?

  17. Beautiful pictures!

    Two Sons: 22 and 18. Love them very much!

    ReplyDelete
  18. The pictures are beautiful. I can see why you like them so much.

    I have an 18 year old son and an 11 year old daughter. I don't photograph them as often as I should.

  21. These are wonderful pictures -- thanks for sharing them.

    I have two children. My son just turned 42 and my daughter is 39. I don't think they plan any more children, and neither do we!

  22. Those are truly lovely!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Nope, Betty. No kids for me. By choice. I've worked with kids for so many years, I think my motherly instinct exhausted itself. So, no way! He he he... That doesn't mean I don't like kids. I love kids! I just don't want any of my own. But I don't even teach anymore, so now I'm completely kid-free. It's like I had kids, raised them, and sent them off to do for themselves.

    How about it?

    Wishing you a delightful week, Betty! :-)

    Big hugs,
    Nevine

  24. These are so cute! My kids are grown, Jason and Jessica, and a step-son, Jeff. Three grandkids - Colin, Lauren, and Lily.

  27. Little girls in high heels, love it! I have four grown kids, 4 grandkids and the 5th due next month. Can't imagine my life without them in it!

  28. Great pictures. I love how they capture the "mundane" moments. Hubby and I have three grown children. Two sons,30 and 29, one daughter, 28, and one granddaughter, 5 in 5 days!
    They sure grow up fast.

    ReplyDelete
  29. nevine, some people don't plan to have children; its a choice just as having a child is a choice.

    childlessness may have its obvious attractions.
    i'm sure you have had motherly love with your students.

    because as a teacher you can have as many children as you want!
    don't you think?

    i have no kids of my own either...when i meet somebody and when we decide to we will have kids then maybe we will; but maybe we won't have kids.
    Who knows!

  40. Such lovely photos. I especially love that little darling in her mama's shoes.

    I have two grown sons - Jeffrey 23 and Alex 20. Now I want grandkids. ;)

  41. I find that I have a love-hate moodswings when it comes to kids. Sometimes, I like them and sometimes I don't. Many times I find that other's kids are adorable but I have not wondered about my own. Maybe I might have them or not. Let's see.

    But, I did enjoy looking at this photograph.

    Joy always,
    Susan

  43. Beautiful photos, I love the tutu and high heels.

    I have one step daughter, 21 next month, who lives in another state. Children are great for others but not for me, none by choice.

  45. Gorgeous and touching! Remember the ancient's photos? The ones of our great grandparents and nobody smiled. Boy photography has come a long way baby! I have two adult children. I have such a memory bank of Trip (38) and Jeremy (35)as children and photos are a precious part of that.
