This family is very special to me. We worked together ages ago and I miss Debbie in particular for helping those long nights go by faster! :)
Anytime you get six people in a shoot it's a ton of work but with these guys it was just easy peasy lemon squeasy. We cycled through every conceivable combination of groups and arrangements and everyone was so sweet and cooperative! SUCH a difference dealing with young adults versus, oh, you know, TODDLERS! :)
Debbie, Don, Eric, Kendra, Chase & Austin (my "favorite"... that was just for you Austin)... thank you for a delightful time hanging out at the beach enjoying the lovely weather, scenery and catch up time. Miss you guys.
ENJOY your images!!
Retirement is suiting Don quite well, handsome fella. :)
And Debbie is a total hottie. She looks better every year I see her and I'm totally jealous.
I could have taken pictures of Kendra all day long, so photogenic. Gorgeous.
Eric was totally under the weather with a bad flu bug (and yet still so unbelievably cordial and friendly, such a great guy) so we all joked about not getting too close to him and treated him like he had the plague. Just kidding! At one point Kendra was able to say, through gritted teeth yet maintaining a perfect smile throughout: "if I get sick from being this close to you I'll kill you." Ah, sibling love!
Chase was so sweet this time. I even got a hug and a kiss instead of dagger eyes. Ha! Chase just LOVES having his picture taken. Right, Chase? :)
And Austin, my "favorite". He tries to come home with me every time. And the adults try to get me to take him home with me every time. It's pretty funny! It's all in good fun though!
I have a RIDICULOUS amount of amazing shots of Kendra. WOW, just WOW.
Her dad's not too shabby either.
My sweet Debbie, I miss you chicka. Such piercing blue eyes.
Oh if you ONLY knew what we were talking about here....
LOVE YOU GUYS!
