Class of 2011 | Senior Boys and Their Moms



Senior session is off to a BANG! So much in fact that I've sorely neglected my blog. It's been a week or two of choosing between editing, eating, feeding my children, shooting, sleeping or blogging and blogging took the fall.

I get to see all kinds of relationships between mom's and their kids during the sessions I shoot, and senior sessions are no different. There are mom's that bring their boys in and fuss over the wrinkles in their clothes, to the mom's that sit back and let the senior make the calls. There are mom's that fret about their son's smile, and mom's that think trekking out in mud to get the shot is a great idea. What kind of mom will you be?

It's almost always mom that accompanies seniors to their session, and this year I've made it a point to capture a shot of mom and son together. After all- there is no one who drives you as crazy as your mom....but appease her and smile for the camera. She did a good job.

Alison,

I love this idea! The mothers look way too young to have teenagers.
