I'm an empty nester! My baby, the last of four, graduated last year and headed south to college. Looking back, there are photos that I don't have that I wish I did. Like most mom's, I was never in front of the camera with my children. I have photos of them, but I'm missing in every single one. That realization hit me this past year. I can't go back and recapture those moments for myself. Yes, I can start jumping in front of the camera with my now grown children, but the growing up years are gone. This got me to thinking about all my seniors that I am photographing. Whether my Moms are sending off their first born, their only child or their baby, they are sending off their child to start this new stage of grown up life. Understanding the gravity of this task, I decided that I wanted to capture a mother / child photo of all my seniors.
