Back in 2014, when my son Colin was 14 months old (and I was actually pregnant with Jill and didn’t know it yet), I picked up my ‘big camera’ to try a new project. I was feeling guilty that I had this nice camera with which I documented other families, but rarely my own. I...
It’s been a minute since I did my last ‘day in the life’ project (and by a ‘minute’ I mean more than 4 months). But now that school has started and we’ve gotten the hang of our new routine, I thought it was a good time to bust out the big camera and document a...
I did my first ‘day in the life’ project more than FOUR YEARS ago when Colin was only 14 months old. In the beginning, I did them quarterly. Until last year when I set a personal goal to do them monthly (which I did… until I forgot in December because of holiday craziness). Monthly felt...
The photos I’ve taken as part of my ‘day in the life’ series are some of my favorites from the past few years (a ‘day in the life’ is when I bust out my professional camera at home and lug it with me for a full day to document our current routine and everyday details). For 2017, I’m...
Once a quarter I bust out my professional camera at home and lug it with me for a full day to document a ‘day in the life’… photographing our current routine and everyday details. I thought it would be a good idea to do one smack dab in the middle of the holiday craziness, of course. The...

Once a quarter I bust out my professional camera at home and lug it with me for a full day to document a ‘day in the life’… photographing the everyday routine of our current lives. I’ve been doing this project for 2.5 years now and even though these moments feel mundane (and honestly a little...
I knew I wanted to do one more ‘day in the life’ post before the end of the year [it’s been three months since my last one], but after busy season I wasn’t itching to pick-up the big camera. I saw this date on our calendar… a random Wednesday… completely blank. No preschool. No daycare. No work....
Three months have passed since my last day in the life. And in that time, Jill has sprouted a killer pony tail, Colin has developed a fierce love of trains, and the kids still adore the swings. (Don’t even get me started on how dramatically things have changed since last September!) September 14, 2015 [Colin is...
It feels like I just did my last ‘day in the life,’ but as re-read that post, I saw a little baby happily napping in an infant carseat, smiling in the swing, and sleeping beside our bed at night. Now, she’s all grown up in a big girl carseat, the swing has been consigned, and...
Wow. Exactly four months have passed since my last day in the life post. It felt really good to bust out the big gun [my ‘fancy camera‘] and take some everyday life photos again. March 9, 2015 [Colin is 2 years old, Jillian is 5 months] Good morning! Lately, Colin starts his day by standing at the corner...
This ‘day in the life’ was a lot harder to document than prior ones. My hands are full these days and it was a little complicated to juggle the toddler, newborn, and camera. I was really surprised when I uploaded everything and found I had more photos to share than I did from any of...
In my last day in the life post, Colin was 18 months old and had just started walking. Even though our routine has stayed pretty similar, I knew I wanted to fit in one more ‘day in the life’ before we welcome another little one. I have a feeling I’ll enjoy looking back at these photos, remembering simpler days,...
It’s been awhile since my last day in the life post so I thought it would be fun to share another day, now that Colin is 18 months old. Even though months have passed, our routine looks surprisingly similar. May 28, 2014 [Colin is 18 months] Colin typically wakes up around 7am and stays in his...
My son is covered in spaghetti sauce. I see my camera out of the corner of my eye, sitting on the table [strategically placed so that it would be ‘accessible’ and I’d be more inclined to pick it up]. But my iPhone is in my pocket. I take it out to snap the quick photo....

Actually, my name is Casey. As a newborn I resembled Fred Flintstone so my parents nicknamed me Freddy and it stuck. I am a professional photo organizer (yes, that's a thing!) who helps people all over the world make sense of their photo mess through organizing services and self-paced online courses.
I want to help you ENJOY your photos again!
