What does life look like when you’re living out your dream?

“There are worse things in life than driving a tractor.” These were the words her oldest son said to her before he dropped out of college to become a farmer. It wasn’t long before her husband was knee deep in a corn field too and they’d bought a farm of their own. A few years later, they sold their home and moved out to their farm land.

Their home, nestled between corn fields and the bayou was bustling with their four grown children, their spouses and kids the day I arrived, and that’s just how Mrs. Rambin likes it.

Mr. Rambin is getting close to trading in his business suits for blue jeans permanently and joining his sons in their work on the farm.

It has become clearer to me lately that living your dream is doing what you love and surrounding yourself with people you love.

Are you living your dream?

Life goes by so quickly. As I was in this family’s home just before I started shooting, I was amazed to see portraits I’d taken of these children when they were babies. It’s hard to believe they are already this big. Big enough to jump on beds and climb trees!

But not too big to be tickled by mom and dad or to enjoy some jumping on the trampoline time. Which is why it’s the perfect time to capture all these moments.

After spending some time at their home, they got dressed up and we went to explore a few other places.

Dads may protest the most about family pictures, but they treasure them just as much when it’s done.

It was such a fun day! Wasn’t it Wes?
