Relax....have FUN!

Ok, so being a Mom of four myself, I can understand the work

that goes into a photo session. Shopping for the perfect

coordinating clothes, scheduling the session around naps and all

of the obstacles of everyday LIFE. This particular family is one of

my favs....Mom is my best friend of 25 l-o-o-o-o-ng years.....

I mean beautiful, yeah, that' right...hehehe. Anywhoo- seeing that

she is my best friend, I can tell you this. When we started the

session....she was doing what a lot of Mom's do, FREAKING OUT....

because she has envisioned the perfect beach shot with her

family...hands folded in their laps, everyone smiling with

sparkly white teeth, clothes ironed....you know what

I am talking about. Well, I am just not that way....at ALL.

And, I always try to capture your life AS IS.

So, if your kid is throwing a fit during our session and you are

sweating bullets, I want to capture that! Because this IS your life

right now, right? Why not capture it AS IS? Well, the kid's were not

throwing fits by any means, but Mom was not happy that they

were attracted to the big blue lake that she brought them to.....

they wanted to play in it, splash in it and have FUN!

I am with you girls! *wink* After convincing Mom to

RELAX and have FUN....we were able to get these images....

now don't you think theses are better than some cheesy pose?

Work with me here woman, I know what I am talkin' about.
