I know what it’s like to lose a family member unexpectedly. Its so easy to put family portraits on the back burner, forget about them, assume that “they’ll always be there”…. until they aren’t and it’s too late. These three lovely women came into my studio for Mothers Day and after their full hair-and-makeup makeover, […]
