Her gentle smile.

His rambunctious energy.

The soft curls, tiny toes and dimpled cheeks….

Life is about the little things. Those moments that happen everyday but you want to remembered forever. Your son playing with the hose in the backyard – wet, silly and full of fun. Watching them swinging so high you think their toes may touch the sky. The look of joy on their faces, the wind mussing their hair as they return to earth and back up again. A favorite book you’ve read over and over, yet each time she listened to like it’s the first.

Life is about the little things. We want our photos to capture those little details you hold close to your heart. Those little moments you don’t ever want to forget. Life in details.

Many people ask us what “Kokoro” means. It is the Japanese word for “heart, spirit or soul”, and it’s a word inspired by Amanda’s experience teaching in the Japanese school system after graduating from college. Both of us, Debi and Amanda, are passionate about the photography profession — and the word “Kokoro” clearly reflects our passion to reveal your heart, your spirit, your soul in each image we capture for your family.
