a blur.
A blur. When I think back to mothering littles, blur best describes it.
Motherhood is a jumble of emotions that change from one second to the next and at times feels like an out of body experience.
Black and white images are always raw with emotions to me. You strip away the color and are left with expressions and feelings.
My Blur of Motherhood Project marries these two – black and white images that show the blur (emotionally and visually with motion blur).
And to stretch myself and my photography skills, I plan on shooting these sessions with my digital camera AND my film camera.
Here’s where I need you!
