Here’s To the REAL Photographers

Here’s to the women,
the soothers, the kissers of boo boos
whose little children call them mama
Who bring their unflattened bellies and muffin tops
their insecurities and worries to the session
And to the REAL photographers who photograph them
and make them feel special.

Here’s to the men,
the anchors, the safety nets
whose little children call them Daddy
Who bring their tired eyes and nervousness
insecurities and worries to the session
And to the REAL photographers who photograph them
and make them feel special

Here’s to the sessions whose subjects aren’t models
Or hand selected by body shape or age
Here’s to the everyday families and children and couples
Who bring their love, their worries, their flaws and their beauty to the session
And to the REAL photographers who photograph them
and make them feel special.

I applaud you.
