    Portraits by Shamarie: My Parents



    2008-06-06 - Photo By Shamarie Claiborne.
    SHAMARIE SENT ANOTHER OF HER TRADEMARK PORTRAITSand writes "I just loved this picture of Mom and Dad. We were down on the farm. Mom was talking (those who know her would never guess that!) and Dad was walking around looking at stuff. I just caught them both in the frame... I love them more than life. I really like the view of them together because it shows them in one very special way I know them: Mom is the really outgoing one. Dad is the quiet thinker."
