Family Fun

The rain held off all day so I was able to close the afternoon with a sweet young family. Their two girls were such hams in front of the camera. Their oldest had fun posing while their baby loved showing off her tongue. They were so much fun.

Family and Friends

I had the pleasure of photographing my sister's family this past Saturday. It was a blast. We quickly started shooting and captured some great shots. Her kids are so comfortable with me following them around with a camera that today just seemed like any other family engagement. How great to have family and friends wrapped up in one package!

What rain?

Saturday began with the weather forecasters predicting rain, rain, rain. My dear friends were so flexible that we rearranged times to avoid the rain. As we walked down the boardwalk of Guana Preserve, the sun shined bright. There was no glimpse of rain. What a pleasure to spend a sunny afternoon with good friends.

Sweet Sunset

I met with another young family just before sunset at Guana Preserve. The temperature was perfect, the breeze was mild, and the sun was bright. Their two little girls were so cute. They loved the beach but weren't so fond of the shelly sand poking their feet. They quickly forgot about the sand and began chasing the waves and tossing the football with their dad. What a sweet family!

Splashing at the Shore

I met up with a great young family Sunday afternoon on the shore of Guana Preserve. They were a beautiful family to photograph. Toward the end of our session, their three girls enjoyed playing in the sand and splashing in the waves. How much fun to be young and carefree!

Briars on the Beach

I photographed some friends from the neighborhood Sunday afternoon at the beach. Their only request was to not be posed in stiff positions. The entire family was so relaxed and easy-going that it made perfect sense that a more candid shot would match their personalities. We had fun and captured a great family portrait as well as candid shots of their children.

Sunny Sunday

What a beautiful day to visit the beach! The sun was bright and the breeze was cool. I started off the day photographing my dad and his girlfriend. They both love the beach so they were very much at home...natural and relaxed.

An Afternoon at Alpine's

I met with good friends yesterday at Alpine Groves Park. When they first arrived, they were a little anxious about having their pictures taken because their young daughter had missed her nap. I empathized and assured them we would still get some great shots. And sure enough, we did! It's not hard to capture a great picture when you have such sweet models.
