Goodbye Summer and another beautiful day in Southern California
About 7 years ago, I received a call from this client who was visiting Hermosa Beach from Boston and she and her family had a family photo session. We started taking pictures in their hotel room, then walked to the beach. I was enchanted by the little girls who had skin like snow white. . .
7 years later . . . I received a call from the same client who just moved to the Hermosa Beach area and wanted to have another family session with me. I am beyond joyful, excited, flattered, happiness, all good feelings. Hello again!
They said they spent lots of time on the beach after they arrived from the east coast . . . yeah, I can tell. Sun-kissed golden cheeks are so shiny. Let’s walk to the beach again!
What you can expect from a session with me on the beach . . . lots of action. Especially when kids are at this age. Parents are young too. Run!
Do not be afraid of seagulls, do not be afraid of the waves…but be careful of course, do not be afraid of getting drenched wet . . . and not be upset if you were partially out of the frame . . .(you know . . . I am 7 years older now too . . . I tried not to be pushed down by the waves by holding my camera high and started worried that my wallet was in my pocket!)
wait for it . . . wait for it . . .wait for the big wave to arrive!
Woah – the surfer was also riding the wave!
7 years ago on the same beach . . .
. . . and now
I LOVE LOVE LOVE. The father is not only so handsome but also being strong and spontaneous with me!
I can not thank you enough for letting me be a part of your beautiful day. See you soon.
