Just yesterday Mom and I slipped away for a morning walk on the beach. Sunbathing squirrels squinted at the sunshine and rows of pelicans flew back and forth overhead. We found shells, breathed in the sky and waves and pondered the footprints that came before us.

Then we picked our very own gems in the strawberry fields, filling our buckets to the very tippy tops! Two pies later (to be shared, I have not eaten them all up myself) and there is a single sweet tart slice left...

♥ Thank you Mom, such a beautiful morning. I'd been looking forward to our strawberry pickin' day. xo ♥

lucky mama

I had the pleasure of photographing this happy family tonight...toes got wet, the sky turned a golden yellow, kisses were given and taken, a mid photo-shoot bottle was savored, swinging in dad's arms again and again was enjoyed , cuddling in mom's lap was needed...I've known Michelle (the beautiful mom of these two blond-headed cuties) since long before she met her fella and started a family. It was wonderful to capture the spirit of this delightful family from behind the lens.
