I Spent 4 Years Documenting My Kids Enjoying Their Childhood Without Technology, Here Are 30 Of My Favorite Photos
The end of this summer marks four years since I started my ongoing photo-documentary "Childhood Unplugged: The Simple Life". This has easily become my favorite series to date because I love capturing the candid moments of the kids enjoying life without technology as they interact with each other and absorb the wonders of the world around them.
I hope this series brings back fond memories of your own childhood and if you haven't already, inspires you to cultivate a passion of wonder and discovery in your own children as well.

I understand what the artist meant--the kids aren't parked in front of a tv, a computer, a gaming system, a tablet or a phone most of the time. They're actually out living life and having real experiences instead of virtual ones. Beautiful photography and good for you helping your kids live a life with real experiences. The tech will be there for them eventually.

I find it ironic how some people took a series about kids enjoying moments in their childhood without technology and twisted it to mean that I believe technology is bad and therefore they never even use it. Huge difference. Rather, the conclusion that should have been gathered (and many of you obviously got) is that the time they spend with hands on play, interacting with each other, and enjoying and appreciating the world around them is far more valuable than any time spent engrossed in an electronic device. There's a crucial word I believe in called moderation. After all, a series such as this is surely much more fun and nostalgic to look at than one documenting my kids staring at a screen, don't you think?

Not once did I see the author say she hates technology and doesnt let her kids use it at all. it's amazing to me that people are actually mad about her letting her kids enjoy the great outdoors. These comments are insane to me. great job mama. You're an amazing mother and photographer and your kids will grow up to appreciate reality and the beautiful outdoors and know how to have fun and live without a phone attached to their hand 24/7 and it's a white thing?? Not even sure what that means, but ok.

These are gorgeous. The choice to do them in black and white was perfect and made them timeless. Not a cell phone, tablet or computer in the lot. It would be interesting to see those very objects with the children photographed so lovingly.

As a parental scientist and a child psychologist, giving them an "unplugged" life will decrease their chances of adapting to adulthood, as technology is apart of our lives and we need to embrace it. I would recommend a "restricted use" upbringing much more.

Interesting how quickly we adapted to a wifi dependent existence.

This is an example of what my grandson said, about the future of his baby son, planning for his life ,to spend time in nature, outdoor sports, as a child I spent much time outdoors, board games, and I loved having a chalk board, children today, are unable to use their imagination, and creative planning !!!

Loved to see the photos of children, how they enjoyed the summer fun, teaching them the pleasures of the outdoors in nature, as well as the sun and fresh air, to experience fun in nature,is like finishing a good book, you want more !!!

I might get some hate for this but those kids aren’t being given the tools to understand technology and when technology is such a important part of today’s society it feels like shes putting them at a disadvantage, i dont like the whole ‘Tech is bad’ idea it’s important to understand technology and if your not teaching it to them its really not a good thing
