{Pretty Posts} ....School Portraits is all mom has! Oh No!!!


     Do you remember picture day in school? Every year, mom would lay out our clothes, tell us how we were wearing our hair, and drop us off with the last words: "Be sure to smile pretty!"  Then, of course, we hit adolescence and we knew what was best for us… we would find the trendiest outfit in our closet (as if the camera captured the entire thing) and pretend that these photos were our glamour shots. After all, this was going in the yearbook!

     Once mom got her paws on the photo packages she would buy the biggest package possible. Did we really have THAT many relatives. What ever happened to all those wallet prints?? Mom loved those photos and she truly cherishes them to this day. They captured her little girl growing up. But wait…

     We've grown up significantly since our senior year of high school. The photo-story doesn't end there… can't end there. Mom knows that. We know that. Why doesn't her photo album know that?  Sure, mom has taken a few pictures since then and gotten them developed. She has even stolen some off our Facebook page and printed them out. 

     Chances are, we have not gifted her with a true professional photo of our grown-up self! A photo of the woman that she can be proud of. Something that isn't as stiff as a corporate head shot but is fashionable, confident, and captures how far we have come since moving out of her house. She did a great job and she deserves to know it! Good thing Mother's Day is coming up…
