My mom thinks she doesn't look good in photos (don't we all?!) but I set out to prove her wrong. After a bazillion shots (just kidding mom, it was only a couple, remember? you did blink in a few and had some weird faces, but like a good daughter, I saved those for another time deleted those) I finally got this shot. Perfection, right? Go ahead and leave some blog love at the bottom and tell her how beautiful she is - it would make her Mother's Day (and totally embarass her all at once)!
You look great mom and I'm looking forward to a lovely morning out with you on Sunday.
And for those last-minute shoppers Mother's Day shoppers, I do offer gift certificates. I can even create a custom jpg for you and e-mail it to the favorite mom in your life (since it's a little short notice to mail anything out at this point!). Ladies, be kind to your children's daddies and just send them the link to my website and tell them you'd love a gift certificate. It's so much easier on them if they don't have to guess!!
Oh, and a ginormous Happy Mother's Day to ALL you moms! Cheers!

She has gorgeous eyes!

Love this image! She is beautiful! Her smile could light up a room.
I have never liked how I look in photos. One day while working with my daughter on her photo scrapbook album, my 21 year old daughter started crying. She was all teary eyed because there was no photos of her mom! After that I make sure that I am not always the one behind the camera -- that I am in front of the camera. I want my kids and grandkids to have those treasure photo memories.
