LIFE WITH LAMPSTAND

When thinking of all of these things...don't forget why you came here in the first place.  You came here to make a moment or a loved one immortal.  So that someday, 14 years from now you can look back and relive a piece of your story...and here's the proof:

Chances are at some point in your life you have probably done the following:

*You've looked back at pictures of your mom when she was younger and thought about how beautiful she was and you suddenly remember what it was like when she tucked you in when you were 6 and then magically you are able to cherish the fact that your mom has lived a full life - no matter where she is or what she is up to now. 

*You keep a baby picture on your phone of your 8 year old and whenever you look at it you are magically transported back in time and remember what their hair smelled like. You then of course proceed question where all the time went. 

*You may even  have that one confidential picture of your lover that you keep easily accessible just to snag a secret smile in the midst of a hectic moment.  It's funny how a photo can bring us peace in chaos.  

*Or, maybe you're just like us. Where a war or something more permanent has seperated you from someone you love leaving you doing nothing less than clinging to photographs that bear more weight than gold in every single moment of your day. 

No matter what, don't sell yourself short...you wouldn't have stopped by if at some point in your life a photograph made your heart do crazy things. 

Therefore, it is our hope that at the close of our time together, we are not only able to present you with beautiful, artful and emotion-filled images but to have been able to share your story. Share the details, the emotions, the experiences of everything that makes this journey your own.  From the beginning to the end, this is about you.  This is your experience. This is your story.
