Thanks for letting me share........ And listening.[/quote]
Tremendous success story! Shows what dedication and self sacrifice can accomplish!
It's also wonderful that your "student" has surpassed the "teacher" in both expertise and success . . . your work has provided her with a great foundation that she took to the full and developed (pun intended) a great life adventure!
Great Job!

Encourage her toward the D850 and Sony mirrorless. I use both and am very satisfied.

Good story and a good bit of guidance early on.

Love being a grandpa! At the intersection of unconditional love, total support and necessity is where you find the most successes. Good goin' Frank,

She's quite the entrepreneur! That's an amazing story (I still have a vision of butt cheeks dancing in my head after reading the article). :-P ;-) I always think of people as having inborn affinities that if they're lucky and get exposed to the right thing/s, something sparks in them. She obviously had the creative nature in there waiting to be developed (no pun intended). It was so good of you to recognize and nurture her interest at a young age. She must be pinching herself sometimes that she gets to do things that not only provide well for her financially, but she feels she is helping others feel better about themselves and their lives.
Thank you for sharing!

She does nice work. Way back when I did the photography modeling, even a Playboy stink. The pictures now are so much better than then, but then so are the cameras and the photographers. It really is all about the photographer. Tell her my hat's off to her. Great job!!!

I am surprised one can make a living making up and photographing women to look like sluts!

Are you kidding me just because it is not your cup of tea does not give you the right to degrade what someone else is proud of his granddaughter accomplishing
And to Frank congratulations on helping your granddaughter find something in this life that she is passionate about, so many people go their entire lives looking for that one thing.

Thank you for putting that unit commenting person straight.
She does a lot more than just photograph people. Yes people, she also does men..... She also does portraits of family's in the environment they love......
The biggest thing she does is MAKE PEOPLE FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEMSELVES..
If you do a search on "vanity by Mandy" it will become very obvious how successful she has become. Her success is more than the photography, it is making people feel good about themselves.... Hey personality and drive is what has me made her successful.
I might have gotten her started, but now I am the student.....

Thanks to all for your comments (except for one, although that one is entitled to their opinion).
Proven again, that if anyone has drive, passion, and finds a need, they can become very successful in this country......

VERY nice work. She's obviously found her niche. From the looks of it, she's probably well-connected to the professional photography community (i.e.; PPA, WPPI, etc.).
I think the most important point is that she found her purpose in this. Nature rewards those who help others in some way. Boosting self-esteem is always a worthwhile endeavor.
