san diego beach family photographer | overcoming obstacles
This GORGEOUS family came all the way from Washington to have their pictures taken on sunny San Diego’s beach with me. Only there was a problem. . .the sun was not to be seen this certain weekend. In fact, we were having a TON of rain.
Allison decided we would go ahead with the session since they traveled so far and she had put SO much thought and care into the whole thing. When we got to the beach it was COLD, but the rain stopped for us and there was even some breaks in the clouds. Her kids were AMAZINGLY good and so sweet and funny. I fell head over heels in love with all of them.
Unfortunately, we stumbled up one more big obstacle about 15 minutes into our session. While I was taking pictures of the two boys, Miss C decided to take a HUGE dip into the ocean from head to toe. Luckily, the people they were staying with lived super close and brought us a spare change of clothes for her. She never cried ONCE and was such a trooper, blue lips and all!!!! We even managed to get a ton more great shots and finish out the session. 🙂
Without further adieu!
I love this little cutie pie!!!
Can you feel the love? Heehee. Reminds me of my house.
I freaking love how much laughing they all did. Granted, I was pretty hilarious too. 😉
