Everyone checks out my mom. My mom’s hot.

In celebration of all my hot moms and grandmoms – I give you the best of me:

My mother said to me, ‘If you are a soldier, you will become a general. If you are a monk, you will become the Pope.’ Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.

How sad is it that so many kids don’t have photos with their grandparents because they hate being in pictures?  Not so with this foxy grandmother and her grandson.  They’ll get to have photo memories of his first steps and how much fun it was to play with grandma!  Lucky boy!

(Yes.  She did get bit.)

This one is for the moms.  Moms do everything.  They help you pick out the right clothes.  They clean up your mess on the floor.  They superglue your leg back together when it gets cut open.  In short, they’re amazing.  CelebrateYOU photo shoots give a gift back to moms for all they do.

It’s always good to celebrate your life and where you are and mark it with great photography. (Not to mention how meaningful pictures of you looking beautiful are to your friends and family. Updating your Linked In or Facebook profile picture isn’t a bad idea either. And if you’re dating… well, that online dating profile could probably use a boost right about now.)   That’s what these photo shoots are all about… taking those amazing women who do so much for other’s and show them how beautiful they really are through the lens of my camera.

It’s always good to celebrate your life and where you are and mark it with great photography. (Not to mention how meaningful pictures of you looking beautiful are to your friends and family and couldn’t your Linked In profile picture or your online dating profile use a boost with new photographs.)

Well, that’s what these photos are all about.  Cast aside any notions that you are not enough and celebrate where you’re at.  I’ll help you look your best as you are.

This is Jane, a 60 year old grandmother, who is dipping her toe into the dating pool.  I wanted for her to have some new photos where she’s looking as beautiful and fun as she is.  Like most people she has some extra weight and some areas she’s not comfortable with, but we went out and had a great time and she got a bunch of (slightly touched up) shots of herself for her new adventures in dating.

The last time I photographed the Ladies (yes, I use that term loosely) it was early fall, we were outdoors, the leaves were changing and everything had this beautiful golden glow.  Going into this shoot, I didn’t really think we could top that.  I’ve become a convert to the winter photo shoot.  I love them.

Okay, I really, really love them.  Winter light is amazing to work with.  It’s light and romantic and if you work it right, people just glow.  I think this is my favorite shoot to date.  Between the glow the overcast sky was casting and the charm (and cheekiness) of the Ladies it was the perfect way to spend an afternoon.

Here you go, they’re confident, strong, playful, funny, beautiful… in short, perfect subjects.
