If your dream comes …
If your dream comes true and you are successful and happy, how could parents not be happy for you. There is always opportunity. Have faith! Sometimes, it means just taking one little step at a time.

hahah! Well it’s …
hahah! Well it’s always good to know you will never be short of work stories at the table! But seriously, the combined effort between Nora and you achieve is astonishing. (*Warning, lifestory*) Would like to make my hobby in Photography a profession, but stuck living my parents dreams instead, and stuck in New Zealand far from hope. You have a very lucky family, I envy you guys!

He’s actually …
He’s actually pretty good with the free flow stuff, I could never talk so fast an make poetic observations on the fly like he does….but that’s a very hard industry to make a living in. That’s one reason he still lives with us, I guess! Ha.

Awe thanks…me too …
Awe thanks…me too! I’m blessed to have two wonderful daughters, both artists! Nora, the photographer and Shayna is a sculptress and draws really well, too. Have a son, Zac, too! He’s still finding himself…he writes and raps! Ha!

Yep! you have told …
Yep! you have told me before in a previous comment, and I checked it out and she was extremely amazing, what a milestone! Why do I feel a sense of pride for your daughter… lol.
photoshopmama
Exactly!
Exactly!

Thank you! Nora was …
Thank you! Nora was about 20 years old here. She has always been extremely photogenic, the camera lover her, she is a chameleon and has always been a great poser, which helps her to pose and photograph others. She is now 29 and still photogenic. Don’t know if you saw the November 2009 Cover of Professional Photographer Magazine, but she WAS the cover!

I disagree. Nora …
I disagree. Nora looks absolutely stunning here! I don’t even recognize her until you said so… And even when you did, I thought you might have had another daughter we don’t know about… Beautiful, artsy and very very creative.

I think the …
I think the association of “daughter” and “hooker” was even more insulting…
Useless!

This once again …
This once again proves my point that we are all a product of our own environment and experiences. I personally do NOT know anything about Givenchy Fashion Shows or any fashion shows for that matter. My comment derives from my past experinces of where I’ve been and what I’ve seen with my own eyes. And you can not fault me on that. Had I been more knowledgeable in the “haute coutur” world, my comment may have been quite different. That said, I do think your tutorials are very nicely done!
Peace.

I absolutely do …
I absolutely do have a sense of humor but the nature of your post would probably cause any mother to take offense. You may think hooker, homeless, but I think of haute coutur as seen in Givenchy Fashion Shows, which you probably would also think hooker or homeless. Also I may be a bit sensitive today, as I am recovering from toe surgery and on pain meds, so I will agree to let us disagree with our interpretations of this image and just hope it’s the concepts of Photoshop editing that r important

I’m simply stating …
I’m simply stating my observation based on what I just witnessed. And no, my mind is NOT in the “gutter.” It’s just that I’ve grown up in San Francisco and this reminded me of people I saw all the time in my neighborhood… Sorry if I offended you. But you should grow a little sense of humor. Maybe the word “hooker” was inappropriate. I probably should’ve used “homeless.” No?
photoshopmama
Certainly that …
Certainly that never entered my mind but I guess one sees what they want–your mind is in the gutter, and your comment insulting.

I love how she …
I love how she effortlessy transformed her daughter from a VOGUE magazine fashion model to a street hooker on Haight and Ashbury!! ; D
