If you have been following the blog for a while, you will recognize the family in the portraits below. This is my nephew, his girlfriend and their son, who is almost 9 months old. I did Michaella’s maternity portraits last summer, and I have done Aiden’s newborn, 5-month and 7 1/2 month portraits (still waiting to be blogged…), but we hadn’t really done a family portrait session for them yet.
A lot of photographers avoid full sun and mid-day sessions like the plague, but sometimes you’ve just got to work with whatever you can. We had a couple of schedules to work around and ended up doing the session at 11:30 on a beach with almost no shade available. We made it work and got some great shots!
If you are interested in beach portraits, please contact me about available dates. We will be in Florence on Saturday, July 30 for our clients from the Cottage Grove/Eugene area. For clients from Brookings and other Curry County/Del Norte County towns, we make regular trips down there to visit, so contact me for upcoming available dates.
