First Family Shoot

I was blessed to be able to shoot a wonderful family of 4. I finally finished post processing my photos late last night and I am not super happy with them. I think the sun was too harsh and there is too much shadowing. Plus it was really warm this day so I think that there is some effects from that. It was busy at the beach so it was kind of, well wherever we found a spot that was clear. I will post some pics that I will admit myself to taking but I feel really bad. I never realized the sun went down so late. This was between 4:30 and 5pm and the sun was still so high up and so harsh! I feel horrible for this wonderful family that their pictures were not the best I could offer them. It was my first real shoot at the beach and my first family shoot so I guess it is not allowed to be perfect. I hope that I will get another opportunity to shoot this family this summer possibly later in the evening or a different location where there is some open shade. Thank you though for allowing me to photograph your family!

Updates of the Kiddos!

We went out on a whim the other day just across the street after doing a bit of grocery shopping. We didn't spend too much time out there and the boy was not very cooperative!

Best Friends

I thought I would share this photo because these are my two kids with their very best friends, "A" and "P". "A" and "P" are on vacation with their mommy to see their family on the other side of the world!! Haha practically they are. Right now my girl is having "P" withdrawls and my boy doesn't seem to interact with any other kids his age like he does with "A". This was taken the day before they left and I think I am going to have it framed for the kids' room...even though my boy isn't looking at the camera!
