His playfulness is surprising. My grandfather…. He can be stern and gruff and seemingly all business. And one second later…. He is singing you a silly show tune. He’s making a very dry and very funny comment. He’s sneaking up behind you with a bone breaking but effective shoulder rub. All of us. My grandfather. My mother. Myself. We are an intense bunch, but we like to have fun.
These are my favorite photos to take. Real people having real fun. Lets forget perfect and boring. Give me playful and real.
