Mother’s Day 2012

I am so fortunate to have such wonderful Mom’s in my life. I only hope to one day be HALF the Mom that my Mom and Mother-in-law have been! Even though I don’t say it enough, they mean so much to me! I am truly blessed and I thank God everyday for giving me this life. Sometimes I wonder how I got so lucky?

This past Thursday, I gathered my 3 Brothers, my Husband Randy, my sister-in-law Jen, and my brother-in-law Dustin! We headed to City Park at 7pm for some family portraits for our Mama’s! My grandmother took us all out to dinner afterwards, which was such a treat!! Although none of of us have children yet, it’s never too late to do something special like this.

Many of you might wonder why people spend so much time, effort and money on pictures. THEY ARE PRICELESS!!! I believe it’s one of the best gifts that you can give. I loved seeing their reactions, it’s the best feeling in the world! I hope one day that my photography allows you to feel this way. Loved, appreciated and celebrated!! Life is short – embrace it!

My Mom said this afternoon….. “JEN! I look at your pictures every day! Finally a shoot of my own children!!” Then…..I melted….

Please enjoy these pictures of my family! For this session, we played PASS THE CAMERA! I set all the camera settings and we just took turns photographing each other :)
