i love life. fragrant flowers the wind, the rain the joy (and sometimes pain) of existing. i love the ability to capture these moments we create and place them in a bottle or in a box to remind our hearts of this precious life we live together. will you join me in this chase? www.joycherie.com hello@joycherie.com |

Alecia Houston, May 2011
This year I started offering sessions I called “Life Journal” or “Finding Joy” sessions. I settled on the latter title :) These sessions are when you or your family or your friends get together and make a visible mark in the invisible stone of time and chisel an “I was here” memorandum to the world.
We go through a letter that you write to future you where youdocument the most significant events and feelings in your life and we photograph you in a very personal space according to the tone of your letter.
Alecia’s letter was very emotive and spiritual. She enjoys being in nature so we found a little enclave that we both enjoyed and photographed her with her letter and without. These are only a few of the photographs we took but they are some of my favorites.
As you can see it was quite lovely.
Here’s to life and remembering it all.
If you are interested in a life session or a finding joy session please e-mail me at hello@joycherie.com

Joy
