WARNER ROBINS - FIT AND FIRM MOMS; Glamour Shoot by Middle Ga Photographer, Pederzani Photography

 Sometimes you just admire women who refuse to settle for average.  They enjoy life and desire to have more of it.

Runs regularly

On June 13th, we celebrated moms who made health and beauty a major part of their weekly routine by disciplining their eating habits and exercising regularly.
I found six gorgeous moms: Rhonda McKnight (our grand prize winner), Cheryl Moore, Mandy Kirschke, Heather Weddington, Sarah Escanilla and Cari Kollman, all  from Warner Robins, Ga; each believing in the common concept of beauty and health yet achieving their goals as differently as they are individually.

We held our very first, Fit and Firm Moms' Glamour Shoot, at Fit and Firm Fitness For Women in Warner Robins, Ga. managed by Marica Glore, who gladly open up the facility for our special event. The proceeds went to benefit the local chapter of, Girls On The Run, Org. in Kathleen, directed by Cari Kollman who was over-joyed to be chosen to be the recipient; and enthusiastically applied the finishing touches making our event more special with fine wines, lite finger foods and gift bags to pamper and thank our moms.
Anna Swaine, Stella & Dot jewelry representative, graciously stylized our models with exquisite samplings from their line of jewelry to complete the juxtaposed look of the glamourized shoot
For the photo shoot portion, I used the available cross-fit paraphernalia ranging from free weights to truck tires and anything else the girls wanted to be photographed with, and staged it in front of my backdrop which was a plain black low key studio curtain.  I used strobes  and speed lights with a reflector to create and mix an edgy feel with a soft glamour effect.
Our models, all moms, ranged in age from their thirties through their fifties, but you may not easily guess who's who.

We sipped wine, ate crackers and fruit and sampled cheeses throughout the photo shoot that ended with a group picture which will prominently be displayed on the walls of Warner Robins', Fit and Firm Fitness For Women. All of our moms received an 8x10 print with an image of their choice from the shoot.

WARNER ROBINS BALLERINA Mixing Bob Fosse Jazz ? ~ by Middle Georgia Photographer, Pederzani Photography

I love contrast, combining two elements that seems diametrically opposed to each other. The only common denominator running through our photo shoot  was movement, dance movements.  We tried blending two different styles to create a unique look for, Sierra, our ballerina.

We used classic ballet movements and slowly introduced a few choreographed jazz stances created by the famed choreographer, Bob Fosse. We donned our version of the black derby he so famously used, with a floppy red hat, unfortunately we didn't have any white gloves.

Our photo shoot began in the shadows of the tall pine trees that landscapes the outer boundary of Central Baptist Church in Warner Robins. From there we quickly made our way over to, The Farmhouse, a popular events venue on South Houston Lake Rd. And several hours later, we ended our photo session at, Wellston Trail, as the sun lowered itself in the sky. We posed among families at the playground, we walked the trail among joggers, skateboarders, and watched basketball players who were too engrossed in their game to even notice we were there.
