A winter morning in Vienna

Making family films has become my new favorite thing to do. It is a really interesting addition to the ways I help families. 

Over the past 12 weeks, I have filmed 4 families, and as I edit each session, it never ceases to amaze me how truly unique and different and special each family is. I typically film for 1-2 hours and, when I get home I review the footage to select the best pieces of the day to edit together into a narrative capturing a slice of their life. 

Once I have completed the review, I then begin selecting the music. And every time, the music that helps tell the story has to be different. Because, each family is different, and each session is unique. Each family has it's own rhythm, and its own energy. It is just uncanny. 

So, without further ado, here is a Winter Morning in Vienna. Every time I watch it, It puts a smile on my face. There is no energy like toddler energy.
