The Intersection of Design & Motherhood
These images by coolest dad ever, Jason Lee, are fantastic! The sisters look so happy and loved, don’t you think? You can read an interview of Jason Lee here. Thanks for the link, Renee.
P.S. — Speaking of fun and kids, my kids would LOVE this product.

My daughter and I love these, although she (she is 4) is a little concerned about the child in the washing machine. She asked if it was hurting him.
Here is another fun photography site you might like: http://www.jaypmorgan.com/
JayP used to be in my ward (in fact, he is still my parents’ Stake President.)
Wow.
Those are so hilarious. I could look at them all day. Thanks for sharing!
absolutely love these. thanks so much for posting!
these are hilarious. especially love the *for dummies* and the one where the little sis is just sticking around. :)
Ah! These are SOOOO awesome!
These are priceless! I’m loving them all, especially the laundry one :)
Love these! Thanks for sharing!
Oh I just don’t know which is my favorite! Although I do have the itch to duct tape a child to the wall now. Or bath time in the clothes washer. hehe. The girls are just too cute.
This photographer is amazing. Love the photos. I like the Tapi, but I have 2 boys. I cannot even imagine what amount of water would end up everywhere else if I installed one!
Seriously love these. They’re so awesome! I totally want to take photos like these of my kids except they might come out lame looking since I definitely don’t have the skills Jason Lee has!
cute! cute! cute! :) definitely put a smile on my face!
Those are seriously the cutest kids ever. And lucky to have such a creative dad! :)
I Love the pictures!
love those. we have a whale “water fountain” at our house. My kids love it. The design of this one looks much better though.
How fun! And thanks for reminding me…I need to get back into my online photography class.
this are sooo fun! I love them! Wow that’s a tough little girl holdin up that couch!:)
These are great! I love the candle-lighting one.
Oh man! I love these so much! Thanks for sharing. I can’t wait to show my husband when he gets home!
awesome! i wonder if i can tape my 6’4″ hubby to the wall?
Love the duct tape pic! Too funny.
This is making my preggie hormones swoon…… I have to stop looking at these!!!
These are so fun! I totally hated those weird kid photos a while back because the kids looked so sad and morose…these are hip and modern but happy!
What cool pictures! And adorable kids!
My daughter saw this and said “Oh Mama, please tape me to the wall.”
I love that the pictures are such daddy pictures. A little dangerous, a tiny inappropriate – just like daddies everywhere. So fun.
These girls are darling and the pix are clever and made me smile. But I am concerned about the candle lighting one—wouldn’t want kids to get the idea they could try that at home. (and end up catching their sibling’s hair on fire)
These are SO inspiring! I’ve been thinking about some sort of interesting holiday photo card since I can’t pin the hubby down for a painting. I love the one you guys did last year:)
He has adorable daughters . . . such happy little faces. My favorite is the one with the “dummies” book – with one sister, 2.5 years older, this was the story of my life! Ha.
The kids are so adorable! And your creativity with the photos is so artistic! There’s no way they won’t put a smile on a face!
This makes me want two little girls! LOVE the creativity.
Wow! I’m in love with this. Thanks for sharing!
I have been laughing at Jason’s photos for a long time now. The creativity in that man is just not fair. It’s fun to see his talent out there even more! Thanks for sharing!
How have I never heard of Jason Lee? These are fantastic! Thanks for sharing.
LOVE these. Just brilliant!
These are so great! Love them all!
Love the faces on these cuties!
AMAZING!!!!
haha cute and funnyyyy… love the blaming the sister for dummies!
Super Like!
Absolutely inspiring! ♥
SO SO cute!
I love fun children’s photography.
Hilarious! I have identical twins (1) and a 4 year old. ALL girls. I can only imagine what this photog would come up with for them.
some of these images are a bit disturbing but… it’s confusing becaust they’re all so cute! I don’t know whether to like it or not!! hahah!!!
This made me smile. Thanks for sharing!
cuteness and coolness of unbearable proportions.
AAAA the girls are reeeally CUTE, but sadly, I just spent months erasing thoughts out of my memory about all these things on the news, so after a little thinking, I have to say: not funny.
I admit I am also affected by our recent issues of sibling rivalry here:)
Still, I find the images rather disturbing.
Hua hua hua! I can’t stop laughing! Just love it! So cool! :D
These pics have me giggling out loud! What talen!
These pics have me giggling out loud! What talent!
Those girls and the pictures are too cute! How fun! They do look happy. My little one loves modeling for me right now when I need photos…I hope she continues doing so!
waouhhh amazing pictures. This dad has an incredible talent and its children look so happy. Nice job.

Love these photos, thank you for sharing and nice to meet you! My aunt forwarded a link of this post to me via email.
These are hilarious! Love them. Kids… don’t try these at home! These stunts were performed by professionals :).
This is incredible – both the pics and getting the little girls to cooperate.
