W & C at the Beach

I'm sad to say good-bye to our fun summer days, but I am so happy to welcome some fall weather! The boys and I had a blast going down to the beach this summer. I really love this first shot because they actually look pretty happy holding hands. (In reality, there have been a lot of "time -outs" in our house lately!) I'm a beach girl at heart so I can't get enough photos of my boys playing in the sand.

H is at the perfect age for photos. He is 8 months, sitting up and ready to crawl but not quite on the move yet! I love this age because I can focus on capturing their cute expressions. H's grandmother had a beautiful garden we used as a backdrop. Just lovely!

A & C

Before I start a shoot, I sometimes show up a bit early to spend time with the babies and meet the family. A & C's mom and I chatted while she did some major multi-tasking preparing her precious little girl twins for the shoot. My motherly instinct wanted to help and grab a bottle, burp and dress them! There are so many times the last few years that I wish I had another set of hands with my own boys. Once we got rolling, the girls did great and I had internal moments of joy as they smiled at the same time!
