Every photographer knows the tension of traveling with family while hoping to make meaningful images. The rhythm of a vacation rarely matches the rhythm of photography — but with the right mindset, the two can coexist far better than we think.

Curiosity isn’t just about looking—it’s about seeing in a deeper, more intentional way. The more we engage with the world, the more it reveals itself to us. Light, texture, movement—each moment carries something waiting to be noticed. By training ourselves to observe with curiosity, we open the door to richer, more compelling photography.
