An August Afternoon at Home with the Girls

Just a quiet Tuesday afternoon at home in the Bay Area, late August 2013. The girls were spending time together, taking photos on a bed with a floral patterned comforter.

They were full of smiles and seemed to be having a great time mugging for the camera. One moment they were sitting up straight, posing closely with sweet expressions, and the next they were lying down, giggling with wide grins. It was a simple, unfiltered moment of them just being kids and enjoying each other's company.

These are the kinds of days that don't necessarily stand out at the time but feel important looking back. Nothing special happened, it was just an ordinary afternoon indoors, but their closeness and happiness in these shots is palpable. It's a small snapshot from a summer day that year.
