The Unspeakable Joy Series
“Joy is a decision, a really brave one, about how you’re going to respond to life”I started this photo series after my son, Isaac, asked me: “Mom – where do you find your joy?” Pretty powerful question from a then 6 year old. Ever since then, I have made a conscious choice to focus on the small, every day joys - the little things - and seeing Isaac’s smile and hearing his laugh brings me the greatest joy of all.
Each year throughout the month of December, I pose a few questions to my clients: What brings you joy? What has this year taught you or shown you? What does this picture of yourself make you feel? Their answers are always honest and straight from the heart. It's one of my most favorite things I do throughout the year. I hope this series brings a smile to your face and a little joy to your every day life. Above all else, let’s remember to “bring the joy” and scatter it every chance we get. – Stephanie
