Artsy Photo-Senior pics

Senior photo time. We had a fun time with photographer Jessica Ames. We met her downtown and she took us all over to capture images of my daughter, Alexandra. They are not your normal studio shots. They are offbeat and fun. I could have taken them but no Alex did not want Mom to take them because that's no fun. Sheesh! To be 17 again. Have the whole world at your fingertips and to have your whole life ahead of you. I am going to be an empty nester after this summer. :( I will miss my girl. She drives me crazy on one hand and makes my heart hurt because it is so full of love for her.

  3. Tammy, your daughter is just gorgeous!! And 17 ... what a great age, her whole life ahead of her! I can imagine that it's bitter sweet for you to see her so grown up!

    Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog! I had never thought of selling my photographs, but I'm certainly willing. Just e-mail me directly at powers-studio.silke@comcast.net and we can figure it out. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!!

    Hugs, Silke

  7. She is so beautiful and yes i understand exactly the heart hurt you talk of, I will also say that from experience after the empty nest comes an even fuller heart as she will bring you even more joy in her independence and then grandchildren etc ... so much more for you ... i promise it gets even more wonderful to be a mum
