Just the girls...

This was taken on our recent vacation by my 12 year old cousin. Perhaps I have an intern in the waiting? I am just like any other mom (or adult female for that matter) in that I rarely like any pictures of myself, and because of that we have very few around the house. However, one point I try to stress to my clients certainly applies here.. your kids don't care how wide your hips are or how tired your eyes look, they will always remember you as beautiful and want to have images to look back on years from now. For that reason I always try and encourage moms to get in a few shots, even when it's supposed to be a session about the kids. It's good to have some pictures to verify that you did, indeed, exist! :)

So here is my proof to the world for all of eternity, I was here and I was happy, surrounded by the most beautiful photographic props the world has ever created... take that Cindy Crawford!
