A DAY ON THE FARM

With the current economic crisis everyone talks about getting back to basics. I recently had the pleasure of spending a day on a farm following a lovely couple and their boys as they enjoyed picking their own fruits and vegetables and seeing the farm animals.

It was both a fun day and an educational day, as the mother taught the children about healthy eating and respecting the land. She was rewarded at the end of the day when her eldest son declared "Mom, I'm a farmer." The youngest was more into the animals and the dirt, but a great day was had by all.

I had previously photographed them for family portraits, so I thank them for giving me the opportunity to document this wonderful day.


I was inspired by this and have decided that THOMPSON and SPRING photography will start to offer half days and full days of "A day in the life of..." That way families can have beautiful photo-journalistic photos of everyday and memorable moments to look back upon. I will be posting the details of this package soon to the main website.
