I thought I would start the series of portraits from our visit at the Chelsey Park retirement home with some behind the scenes shots. Another big thank you to Hair stylist Amanda Rendell from Studio H and makeup artists Elfriede and Shealee for all your work on the day, as well as Laura who blogs for the Caregiver Exchange and wrote this lovely post where more behind the scenes pictures are posted which I really appreciated as there are some of me in them too 🙂

Now to share the first portrait from the day. I don’t see this project at all as a ‘Before and After’ glamour shot thing whatsoever as it is all about the experience and showing the participants beauty but with the amazing work that Amanda was doing to hair especially for Cindy, I just had to take a before and of course share the after.
