What is the aim or goal of your writing: I started photographing my children when I became the designated stay-at-home parent because that's what photojournalists do when they're at home. I hadn't found any fun, happy and positive children's books about siblings at the library or bookstores, so I decided to create one. Because I'd been published in every newspaper and most magazines in the U.S. as a photographer, the publishers were willing to take me on.
