Erin is a good friend of the family, and we are "bus stop buddies" with our sons. It was a great opportunity for me to be able to take a portrait of her. Thanks Erin. Go see her new blog at Hybrid Mom. She does share blog space with a couple other moms, so have a look or point your favorite mom there.

This photo looks so professional yet casual. The perfect balance for its purpose. Nice
Thanks for introducing a powerful Mom to use. I could use some of her tips on work and balance at the moment!

I really liked this series when you first shared it with me. I appreciated seeing what you did with the flash and the umbrella before buying my set up.
Thanks for also sharing the settings in your post.
Well done Mike. The edge of the deck was a perfect place for these photos.
What a way to honor this lady!!
