Where Love Begins

The day I took this photo, I wasn’t just learning how to use my camera, I was learning how to truly see. In her eyes, I found clarity. In her light, I found purpose. In her smile, I found the courage to become the woman she deserves as a mother.
When I look into her eyes, I don’t just see my daughter, I see the reason I became who I am.
We share the same eyes, but she carries a deeper kind of vision. She sees love without fear.
And through her, so do I.
