Ahoy! Me Hearties...

I am super behind on shoot blog posts, so here is one to get the ball rolling...
I met Natalie through preschool: Our son's went to the same one, that was almost 2 years ago now. How time flies. We always bump into each other in the commissary and discuss the state of the food (I won't go there right now, but I have not seen Food Inc yet, in case I freak). We talked about a photo shoot for months and finally we did it and boy did we choose the right morning because rain followed the next week. Lots of it!
We did some traditional shots and then we got wild! Seems to be the way my shoots go! Luckily I get a good match of clients. Plus, I don't advertise, everything is word of mouth, which is the best advertising anyway so I hear...I think the families know they may end up in the sea, in a tree or jumping off walls at some point!...this time we were jellyfish!...

Then I took a few minutes to get some shots of the boys playing...yep, this is the sea during 'winter' here...

and discovering...

This is E's thing, he loves his binoculars!...

While the boys were having fun in the sand, I grabbed a moment for a photo of Mum and Dad...

I love how it turned out...
Then out came the fish eye again...strong boys...arrrrrggggggg...

Finally, the family come together for a family shot...back to life, back to reality...

I forgot to mention, they bought these wonderful Okinawan shirts especially for the shoot! Great choice! It was a blast, Thank you guys! :o)
Whenever I get home from a morning shoot I am super energized like nobody's business. Anyone that knows me, knows that I am not a morning person. Only photoshoots seem to give me that morning burst of energy. Maybe I need to drink coffee! Ha Ha!
