Martha is one rocking photographer!

I have to share. My friend Martha Abelson is truly one rocking photographer! Martha, who is also a friend of mine, is going to be my "in house" photographer. She's amazing! Martha and I became friends last year through our kids who were in the same class at Ravinia school.

Martha did a photoshoot at the beach today with my daughter and neice and nephew. Ages 6, 7, and 5. The idea was to have their pic's up in the store with other client work of hers to show off her talent! It turned out to be a very cold afternoon... the water was hitting the beach like it was the middle of winter. But the kids didnt know a thing! Martha is amazing. She was down in the sand with them, on the shore getting wet, and everywhere encouraging the three mischief makers to have fun and be natural. She makes your kids feel like they are her friend. My nephew initially ran off and refused to partake but ended up having some great pic's taken. My neice told my sister in law that this was her best day ever! How can you beat that? My daughter felt like she was a rockstar!

Go check out Martha's blog for a few pic's of our great late afternoon at the beach. If you think you want pic's taken call Martha. Besides loving her as a friend she is really a wonderful photographer. I can't say enough!
