Not only does this proud mother/grandmother vacation annually with her own children and grandchildren....she also ensures the time is documented by professional photos. To emphasize the importance she places on capturing this, I must share the session experience with you. You may see in the photos, raindrops, damp hair, and skies and ocean that look at little intimidating. The day of this session was one of those crazy coastal weather days where it threatened to storm with lots of mixed messages...thunder, angry looking clouds, a feisty ocean...I expected the call to cancel but it never came so off I headed. This family was out and in position for the first big group photo only seconds before the sky opened up. We ran to a nearby gazebo for cover and they waited out the storm...we could see blue sunny skies beyond the grey ones but it was that sideways rain coming into the gazebo that made me realize the value this family places on their annual photos. Pressure was on once the rain let up...and the kids were itching to play....below is a sampling of the images captured for this great family.
