Ellie

As I was correcting Miss Ellie’s adorable photos with her mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, I was reminded of a photo I just found recently of my great-grandmother and me. Unfortunately, my natural memories of my great-grandmother are limited. My parents were wise enough to pick up a camera, though they probably never thought about how special those photos would be to me in years to come. The great Australian photographer David Williams explains that, “we photograph our children as they grow for ourselves. We often forget the power of memory we leave them in those images when they are grown.” I think today I truly understood the meaning of those words and I feel honored that I have been entrusted to provide Ellie with some precious memories of her youth.
