This is a sweet sweet family from my church. My small group meets at their home and over the past year I have taken in a wonderful view of their family life – which seems to revolve around mom in the kitchen! Susan is a wonderfully creative cook and always has fun desserts to offer to any and everyone! When she asked me to photograph her family, I asked if we could do a series in the kitchen to capture on film everyday life – My goal was to give the family something tangible to go along with the memories they’ve created over their lifetime. So, I sat back in a corner with my camera and watched while the Heckels made homemade cookies, drank coffee, dad told stories and even tried his hand at juggling.


This is my favorite! But I already told you that. I love this picture of everyday life, and I love this family!
I like these pictures because they make me start smelling cookies baking in my head. mmmm, wonder whats in the oven?
In the oven.. the best oatmeal chocolate chip cookies I’ve ever had!!
I’m going to have to agree with Corrie. I like the view of everyday life…David’s shot is completely him.
I loved all the entries, so the winner is ANYONE THAT TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DIANNE BOND’s creative talents. As I look at Life at Home, it captures the love and feelings that we all strive for. What a blessing to have this feeling put to pictures.
This is my favorite family too!
