Mother's day is less than three weeks away and with the recent passing of a few sweet women that I was privileged to know, I have a renewed sense of urgency to capture and preserve images for mothers and their children. I want to encourage every mother out there to get out from behind the camera! No one knows the number of their days, and no one knows what tomorrow will bring. Your children don't care whether you were wearing make up that day, or whether you never lost that baby weight. I personally have never looked back at an image of my mother or grandmother and thought, Wow! She really should have changed shirts before this picture was taken, or at least styled her hair.
My challenge to you all today is to put that camera in your husband's or friend's hands and have them photograph you playing with your children! If you have no professional portraits of you and your children that can be preserved for years to come, I encourage you to do that as well. From now until the end of May, you can schedule a Mommy and Me (or even Grammy and Me) session and receive a complimentary 10x20 story board with up to three images of your choice.
