you may have seen my twitter update about my session with drew, mentioning that i was in love with their little family, but what i didnt mention is that they almost died in a fatal parking garage roof/shopping cart accident in which i was at fault.

happily, chuck was quick on his feet and saved the day before catastrophe. i was MILLISECONDS away from throwing my camera down and saving drew and brayden when chuck righted the cart and all was well.

i was also updated after the session of three facts: drew had a huge bruise on her arm, chuck had a fat lip, and brayden got a scratch on his face. leading me to think about adding the following to my website: WARNING! PHOTO SHOOTS WITH TARA MAY CAUSE SIDE EFFECTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: LIGHT BRUISING, TRIPPING, LAUGHING AT ONESELF, LAUGHING AT ONES PHOTOGRAPHER, FOREHEAD GOOSE EGGS, FACIAL IRREGULARITIES, SPRAINED WRISTS AND/OR ALMOST BAILING OUT OF A SPEEDING SHOPPING CART. ASSUMED TO BE WORTH IT, BUT PLEASE HIRE AT OWN RISK.

love ya drew! :)

michelle - Dang it! Don't you know shopping carts are DANGEROUS! My kids get scolded by the Target employees everytime we go there because they are doing some ridiculously risky move like standing on the sides while I'm pushing it 1 mph! CRAZY WILD! I'd hire you despite the obvious risks!
