This is my husband's Grandmother, Eileen McCormick. She is 91 years-old and is one of the sweetest ladies I know. As you can see, her smile lights up any room and her sense of humor is wonderful! Early this spring, we took Grandma to the mall so she could buy a new spring outfit or two (she's really a stylish gal and loves to go shopping.)  We planned to make a portrait of her one day soon. Well, I told her I wouldn't take "No" for an answer and she graciously agreed, as long as her hairdo was fresh!

In the weeks that followed, there wasn't a day where she felt good enough to have her portrait made. She was hospitalized for many days before returning to her assisted living apartment with hospice care and a steady stream of family and friends visiting. 

It appeared that we had missed out on the opportunity to make a portrait of Grandma. But we were wrong!  Grandma was feeling well enough the other day to visit the beauty salon in her building and have her hair done. I jumped at the chance to photograph her that day! She looked like a million bucks and her smile was as bright as ever!

I am so excited to share these images with family members! I am so grateful that we were given the opportunity to capture the essence of Grandma! Let these images be a record and a lasting physical reminder of a strong, beautiful woman, whose strength and love knows no bounds. We celebrate you Grandma!

Meet Andy Thomas

At 99 years-old, Andy Thomas says he's "the luckiest man in the world," but those who know Andy are the lucky ones! Please take a minute to watch a Good Samaritan video that features him. We should all strive to be more like Andy!

Hayden & Will

We really enjoy it when kids of all ages come at play at the farm. Hayden and Will are delightful and their mom only had one complaint about the portraits: there were too many great images to choose from! Sorry Lisa...

The answer to Lisa's dilemma? A beautiful hard cover portrait book custom designed with all the favorite shots. Check out the pricing document on the website to learn more (click on the information tab, then on pricing.)
