Deborah's fitness photos



My friend Deborah--spin instructor and writer extraordinaire--is working on a fitness book for moms and asked me to shoot some headshots as well as some fitness photos for her. The night before, we thought we might have to cancel since the freezing temps caused the schools to cancel for the following day. She confessed that she'd already invested in a spray tan, and hadn't eaten for two days in preparation for the photo shoot! We decided not to cancel and just let her kids and my kids play together (along with a babysitter Deb brought). So glad we didn't cancel! Deb looked awesome and was a fabulous model. As you can tell from these images, she is very fit and photogenic. Here's a preview.

Behind the scenes: Christmas 2008 shoot

Many of you received our Christmas card this year. What you Don't know is what went on behind the scenes. It was a chilly day, so between their individual shots, the children huddled in the van parked nearby! Gabrielle wouldn't be serious (big surprise!), and then had a meltdown towards the end--hence the photo of her crying while the other two decided to act silly. Finally, they were freaked out due to a hole in the caboose window that could have been made by a bullet (or a rock--I quickly pointed out).

Anyway, enjoy the lighter side!
