The story of:  The Nowak Family

– back

This session resonated so deeply with me - for so many reasons.

First, because this kind of life (rooted, intentional, beautifully simple) is what I've also set out to create for my own family. And second, because watching Karis and Nick live it out so naturally reminded me that the quiet rhythms of daily life do often hold to most meaning.

From the beginning, Karis was clear in her heart that she didn't want anything to feel "too posed." She wanted honesty - for me to simply show up and observe. To allow her family to lead this story.

It was a glimpse into their everyday on a lil patch of heaven: working cows, running barefoot through the yard, her nursing her babe in the truck while Nick moved cattle. Ordinary moments but filled to the brim with love.
