MOTHERS DAY
Celebrating women through the lens
WOMEN of all ages, backgrounds, sizes and cultures enjoy the model
experience starting with a pampering hair and makeup session before
slipping into a gorgeous gown and being guided through an empowering
photo shoot at Elyn Photography’s studio in Marsfield.
Elyn has built her business
specifically to celebrate
everyday women
whose grace, individuality
and beauty are overlooked
by mainstream ideas of
beauty.
She believes in the wonderful
growth and change
of women and that life is too
brief and precious to put off
being photographed.
Her portraits are classic,
beautiful and capture her
clients at their unique best.
Being photographed for a
magazine spread is a glamorous
experience most

and Elyn offers this experience
to everyday women to
celebrate themselves, their
age, their relationships,
their stage of life.
Whether it is a sweet
sixteen blossoming into
womanhood, a working
mother in her prime or a silver
haired matriarch every
woman enjoys being pampered,
styled, celebrated
and seen at Elyn Photography.
Mothers and daughters
are photographed together
to celebrate their special

in front of the camera,
husbands and wives celebrate
their union, engagement
or marriage. Lives are
celebrated, relationships
are celebrated and the
photographs are a legacy
for these women and the
people they love.
So what inspired Elyn to
dedicate her life to glamour
portrait photography?
”My mother often remarked
on looking and
feeling old, when all I saw
were her deep blue eyes,
gorgeous silver hair, soft
fair complexion and radiant
smile,” she reflected.
“I saw her endless patience,
generosity, resilience,
empathy and love
- never her age, because
