I need the following sentences translated and explained.. pleaseee =)

Luis is a father. Look at my new pictures.

1st - I dont know whether to use the verb estar or to say es..
2nd - When i say "look" i'm speaking to a network of people, not one single person... so i'm not sure what/how to conugate there either.

Luis es un padre 'o' Luis es padre.

I wouldn't say "un padre", but simply "padre". You only use the article when you are going to specify what makes him different from other parents (e.g. un padre muy cariñoso). People always make the same mistake when they say "Soy un profesor" instead of "Soy profesor".

1) Read this: <http://my.spanishdict.com/forum/topic/show'id=1710195:Topic:1060588>
2) Use the polite plural form: "Miren...".
