Here is the second shoot in my personal project “Reinvention”, all about women who reinvent themselves mid-life.  Meet Lynne…photographer, mother and roller derby queen!  In the past year Lynne has reinvented herself as a leader in several photography organizations and as you can tell by the image above taken up roller derby for the Pioneer Valley Roller Derby team.  During the shoot I got an appreciation of what a tough game this can be…what other sport has mattresses lining the walls?! What a treat to have the rink to ourselves to play with light and then go out in the country near Lynne’s home to shoot her in a field…rainbows on her socks and in the sky!  As a side note…Lynne and I met during a photographers’ meeting in CT last year where we discovered we went to the same Kansas City high school just two years apart…small world indeed.  You go roller girl!!
