Upon review of ALL these new photos you've posted I have to say. CARO, THESE ARE MAGNIFICENT. Crowsifix (If that's his name) is sublime, it's like the stunning beauty of that photo just almost makes up for my not having been there. Almost replaces a whole experience with it's greatness. It's the technical quality that really gets me. You're better then a lot of people who do this for a living. Who've studied. Such a mastery of angle and light. Crisp, crisp focus.

Also, it has been decided now, officially. I have to meet this Ilona girl. I mean, "Jaxon's Sister, Ilona" is attractive enough as a title to get me interested in the first place, but (wow) is she ever gorgeous! Interesting looking. Photogenic, I must say. She reminds me of a younger, more capricious, fey and pretty version of Kate Second Story, whom I am very fond of. Good job. Gay crush.

And finally, the boys. The three boys(Jaxon doesn't count anymore as I've aready gone to lenths about that [Sorry Jaxon!]) There is at least one photo of each one that captures him in such an exellent, representative moment. Matt, in that post-hip-hip church photo on stairs. The light and the color behind his face, the tone of it. He looks so happy to be So Cool. It's the good side of photo-face. So young and cocky. Brilliant. Lucas, in the shot by our door wherein he tries on(?) glasses. He's very beautiful. I mean that's obvious just to look at him, but you really got his "I'm so hot and being taken in a photo" pre-smile, and his stance really values his body. Great sunlight/shadow geometry too, the way it graces that hilarious bit of dogma on his shirt. Kyle, in his skeleton gloves, clever back jacket and 90s wrap-arounds. He always looks as though he somehow told himself the Cosmic Joke at some teen age, got it, and will never quite be over how fucking funny it is. "Hahhaha. Yes. Yes, Caroline, I agree, we Should build the Lego pirate ship. We should build it now." That's what he's saying to you in this photo.

End of rant, continuation of amazement.
(Not that it means I wouldn't care this much about these fantastic shots otherwise but...
Guess where I am?)

Ha. See you tonight.

that.made.my.week. that has to be one of, if not THE most thoughtful exploration and commentary on my photography I've ever received. holy christ, i really can't thank you enough for letting me see those thoughts just processed like that. wow.

I WILL TELL YOU WHAT JANET JUST DID WHEN I SEE YOU. SHE'S FUCKING INSANE, XAVIER, INSANE.

And that is EXACTLY what kyle is saying in the photo. how on earth could he be saying anything else?? :DDD
