Happy 50th to Mike and Peggy Driscoll

We all know how much family means to us! So, when we reach a special mile stone such as a 50th wedding anniversary it is a natural that families celebrate together!! For if not for our parents, what would be? Having had the pleasure of creating family memories such as the Driscoll Family portrait it makes me think how lucky I am to about to be celebrating 15 years of marriage to my best friend. Of course every relationship has their ups and downs, but I almost feel an obligation and a sense of curiosity to ask "how'd you do it?" The few times I've actually had the nerve to ask I am always met with some sort of sarcasm followed by the words of wisdom, "I married my best friend" and "we respect for one another".

After spending time planning this portrait with Peggy I had the pleasure of meeting Mike, her children and grandchildren. Orchestrating the 31 members of the Driscoll Family was fun. After the portrait we created here, their children surprised them by bringing top hats and bouquets so we were able to create a bridal party pose with both the immediate and extended family. Lots of fun and love was in the air. It is always a thrill for me to bear witness to families enjoying one another. Congratulations Peggy and Mike!
