In the spirit of Mother's Day, I thought I'd start my "Cool Moms" series.
I get to be a photographer because of the cool moms who hire me. I’ve met SO MANY wonderful, accomplished, interesting women along the way … and many of them have become my friends (how did I get so lucky!?!).
I thought it would be fun to start profiling some of these amazing moms.
First up, Jennifer. She was a good sport when I told her I’d be bringing my camera to our lunch at Lucia’s. I’ve known her for about a year or so. I first met her when her little guy was about six months old. He has the most beautiful, blue eyes!!!
Occupation: Graphic designer (Jen helped me design those beautiful holiday cards last year!)
Family: Husband and little, 20-month-old Otto
Best thing about having an almost two-year-old: Watching Otto discover things he enjoys — and then doing them over and over and over. Pouring water from one cup to another, giving Lucy the Basset treats (she especially like the repetitive aspect), belly flops on the sofa.
Favorite “mommy” secret: I feel like a better parent since I quit reading parenting books. (I second that!)
Where to shop for clothes: Anthropologie
Favorite radio station: 89.3 The Current
Looking forward to this summer: Getting out the kiddy pool and watching Otto have a blast!
Favorite Wendy B. shot:
Thanks, Jen. You are such a cool mom!!!! Next time we have lunch I promise not to bring my camera!
