backtracking thru 2008 - part 5

A super windy day in November, at the beach, with a baby under one year, could have been disastrous, but absolutely wasn't. Add on top of that, the baby had never been to the beach before, so it could have really been bad! But she did fabulous and was such a trooper in the wind.

The not quite one year old and her wonderful parents ~


And when I say wonderful, I mean "love 'em to pieces" wonderful.


And those were taken before we set her down in the sand. She LOVED sitting in the sand. LOVED it. Not only loved it, but would look up at us and show us how much she loved it. So not the norm, let me tell you. It was awesome. (Here is the link to an earlier post from their session where you will actually see her in the sand.)

We really didn't get any of her alone because the point of this session was to get a great photo of the three girls together. That we did. Here are a couple more ~


One of my all-time favorites!


And after that set of photos is where Miss "S" pooped out and decided it was just too windy for her cute little self.

So we moved on to the girls and their parents, the best friends of the first family shown above...

and had a fabulous time! All of them are naturals in front of the camera. They not only did what I asked them to do, but did it like they were pros and like they weren't guided in any way. It was awesome.

They brought along this super cute snowman and put the finishing touches on it when we first got to the beach ~




A favorite of mine ~


And how great that we could get a group shot. I want a photo like this with our best friends...


Back to the almost one year old... I have some awesome one year old photos to share with you soon! Talk about CUTE!
