Catching Some Serious Waves
I met my daughter Lissa’s friend Evette and her family at the beach on Saturday. This precious little girl was a familiar face for us between preschool and kindergarten, since she is the only friend who also went to the same two schools! It’s always fun to see her smiling face before and after school, and we’re looking forward to our ice skating field trip this week!
“E” was so much fun to photograph! She had lots of smiles and was all about posing for the camera. And when it came to going down by the water for a few shots “near” the waves . . . look out!


Beautiful brown eyes . . . and no question where they came from!

Thanksgiving
The last time I was at Crystal Pier, the entire place was socked in with crazy fog! What a change this time, when I arrived for a pre-Thanksgiving Day shoot with Family L. Oh, my goodness! The weather was beautiful, and everything just went by the book. The children were sensational, the parents were pros, and we had plenty of time to get just the shots we needed. Thanks for a wonderful time!

Hugs, Lollipops, and a San Diego Snowman
What a treat to do a sunset beach session at the Del with my good friend Keri and her family! Little Zach spotted me on the sidewalk and started running, giving me a huge hug right off the bat! Wow!! He loved me even more when I told him about the super-special lollipops I was holding for children with smiles for my camera!
Zach and his big sister Rylee were both champs, and they genuinely had a GREAT time getting their church clothes all wet and sandy in the waves! Baby brother Colby took it all in and pretty much decided we were all nuts, but he was okay with it.

Zach was a GREAT smiler . . . except when there was something more interesting to look at!

And at one point, Zach got just a little more wet than he’d bargained for . . .

But Rylee loved every single minute. She has a zest for life equaled only by . . . her mommy.

I love these silhouettes from this session!!


And to top it all off, we met a real-life San Diego snowman on the way in from the beach! We were all soaked to the skin, but Zach and Rylee took a moment out from their lollipop appreciation party to stick the nose back on the snowman. (So THAT’s what vegetables are for!) It was a sweet ending to a fun time!

I LOVE them all, and I can already tell this is going to be so hard picking my favorites!! They are gorgeous, Amy, and these pictures will forever remind us of our fun family beach outing at the beautiful Hotel Del. Rylee and Zachary have already asked me, “When can we go back there with Miss Amy?!”
