I had the pleasure of meeting Lauren and her mom Jo years ago when Lauren first opened her lingerie store in Chicago. Lauren is the type of girl that treats everyone like an old friend – she greets you with that amazing smile of hers and makes you feel welcome. Thanks to Facebook, Lauren and I were reacquainted and I’m so glad that we were! Lauren has been really open with her family’s journey – specifically, caring for her mom who now suffers from Alzheimer’s. When Lauren approached me about doing a session with her family and mom, I was thrilled. I’ve said on this blog many times that (in my opinion) the grandparent/grandchild relationship is one of the most important. I was so happy to document this time for Lauren, her mom and their family.
