Retouching: Maye Musk by Lara Jade for Sachin and Babi and InStyle

Retouching: Maye Musk by Lara Jade for Sachin and Babi and InStyle

Just the other day I was watching the historic SpaceX rocket on livestream, thinking just how incredible Elon Musk is, and suddenly I found myself moments later retouching Maye Musk, who is the fabulous (truly!) mother of Elon Musk. The entire family is as perfect as you can get. 

She radiates with life at 69 years young and has the confidence and charisma to back it up. I was so impressed with the images and documentation of the day and had to show you. Here's a video below along with some of the images I retouched. 

I can't tell you how elated I was to do this. We had a tight turnaround and we finished in perfect timing. I am so happy to share these with you!
