I love portraits to celebrate motherhood — at any stage of life. It is so meaningful, memorable, and honestly, its the ONE time that a lot of moms will allow themselves to be photographed — sometimes an excuse or reason is needed… And I will take any and all reasons! I don’t have any professional portraits with my mother… Or any professional portraits of just my mother for that matter. MOMS! Do this for your kids! Exist in beautiful portraits that they will treasure for generations to come! I cannot stress this point enough— it may seem trivial and silly now to take the time, spend hours figuring out outfits and investing in hair and makeup so that you look and feel your best —- but THIS IS A GIFT for your kids, your grandkids and beyond. Give them this gift. Celebrate who you are TODAY. Life is crazy, messy and complicated. But what they will remember is YOU and the time they spent with you. Give them the gift of portraits of you and with you that will last for generations that capture you beautifully during this crazy, messy, busy phase of life. Best gift ever.
