Winter in El Medano

Sometimes it is incredibly difficult to stand the cold. Especially if you`re in wet, snowy winter Kyiv. My family and I can`t live without summer, so it`s the third winter we are spending on Tenerife. I have already told about this island in one of my posts. This is a real paradise. The cities here look like they were grown up from the rocks washed by the sea. But here`s the rub: the kids have to go to school. So far, we can`t miss three months of study, so we should send them to Kyiv. This, of course, darkens our stay.

But once, I was fortunate enough to photograph one day of this incredible family. We met here in Tenerife, and I was amazed by the easiness they treat their routine obligations. They also come here in the winter, but school doesn`t tear them apart.

While parents are kite-surfing, the children are riding on scooters and playing football with locals. Kids study at home, but no more than two hours a day. And, surprisingly, during these months they are developing faster than at school. Returning home, they get even better marks than before.

Is it worth telling how happy everyone is from this solution? I think the photos show everything without words. So much sun and smiles in the frame – enough to warm up in the coldest days.

Perhaps, inspired by the experience of our new friends, we will rethink our own family tradition. After all, we wish we could return to this eternal summer again and again. Especially when we meet such wonderful people! If you are also planning a winter trip to Tenerife, I will be glad to capture your warmest moments too.

Beauty of your usual day - that's just the thing I want to reflect in every photo shoot. Everyday life is a wonderful entourage for children photography. Every day is an event where there is a place, for instance, for a great portrait!

Morning With Mother

This is that very feeling which comes with the new baby. This is when you cherish every moment of your memories: the first tooth, the first smile, ups and downs. You can’t feel like baby-SIT when summiting Everest, stopping tornados, removing tidal waves.
