Moms - I've been holding out on you.

Beautiful, tender photos of you and your children ~ aren't frivolous.  They're a necessity!  Because to your kids . . .  YOU are too indispensable to be omitted from their past.  

You don't want to miss this precious time. Life is fragile and the window we get to celebrate motherhood with these messy, silly and sometimes stubborn little people is small but it is also tender and sweet and filled with hope for a new day.   

I quietly celebrated a milestone last week, remembering the day 13 years ago that I was diagnosed with breast cancer.  My children at the time were 14 and 3.  I was stunned and devastated and ironically the first thing I thought of doing was having portraits taken of me with my children and family.  For my children, I wanted to make sure I was not an invisible part of their childhood just in case I wasn't blessed with the opportunity to be there to share in their birthday celebrations, skinned knees and first dates.  But God has blessed me with 13 Mother's Day celebrations and I have cherished every one. 

Moms - I guess you might say I've been holding out on you.  I have restrained myself every time a Mom says she doesn't want to be in photographs because she needs to lose 5 lbs or she needs to let her hair grow or get it cut because it's a mess.  I'm quietly sad when I talk to a family that has never taken the time to schedule family portraits.  I believe photographs give clarity to our memories and give us a sense of connectedness.  


MAMA & ME is a Mother's Day project designed to make sure you are not an invisible part of their childhood.  Schedule one of our 20 minute MAMA & ME portrait sessions of you and your child or children ~ showing off your warm, loving and playful relationship and we'll create a sweet keepsake gift for you.



You may select our Mother's Day necklace available ONLY in the month of May during our Mother's Day event. The necklace includes a photo charm on an 18" sterling silver snake chain with a dainty lead-free pewter and silver plated pendant charm or select the 7 1/2" Cable Link Charm bracelet with oval links and a slight rope texture in 100% sterling silver with a dainty lead-free pewter and silver plated photo charm.  

Call to schedule a MAMA & ME session or a family portrait session for yourself in honor a of  Mom that you love.
