Your Second Childhood,
Remembered.
Raising kids ain’t easy — understatement of the century!
You might have signed up for sunshines and rainbows, but the fine-print clearly states tearful meltdowns, messy
houses and sleepless nights.
You don’t need the distance of years to see this time for what it really is.
What do you remember
from your own childhood?
What will your kids
remember from theirs?
Photos are the pillars of our memories. When you don’t capture everything, it’s like trying to finish a puzzle with only half the pieces.
“The moments you’d never think to photograph are the memories you’ll miss the most.”
How?
What if a friend came over for a few hours and left with amazing photos of you and your family? That’s exactly how it works — I hang out with you for a few hours while you just go on with your lives or do something special.
The session revolves around you and not the other way around, so you could show up in your pyjamas for all I care.
The hardest part of documentary photography is also what makes it so much fun — you never know what comes next.
You get photos that portray the pure rawness of childhood and the beautiful absurdity of family life.
“The feeling that a friend came over to hang out and incidentally happened to be taking photos.” — Chen Mor
About me
To me, just writing this feels just like standing in front of a camera – highly viceral.
I see parenthood as a wild, crazy ride, a chance to see the world and yourself in a different way and most of all – an opportunity to experience childhood all over again.
Photographing families (my own included) has allowed me to weave between perspectives and show how things look from the child’s eyes, as well as the adult’s.
“Throughout the day Nimrod exuded calm and non-judgementalness — my eldest, who usually closes himself off to strangers, never stopped trying to impress Nimrod.” –Hanni Aviv
How many childhood memories could you recollect if I gave you an hour?
Now, how many with a photo album in front of you?
The moments that become stories will live on.
The rest will quietly disappear.
I’m not for everyone.
But I might be exactly right for you.
But I might be exactly
right for you.
