Again the passage of time is freaking me out. First because sumer is almost over (sob! this depresses me to no end. I think I need to move to Hawaii.) And secondly (and the reason I bring it up) because one of my favorite newborn sessions from last year, little miss Sophia is already ONE!!! All these one year old sessions this year have been so much fun, and hers was no exception! It might have even been a little more fun. My mom and kids came along to the beach, we had fish and chips together and then they played in the water while I took pictures. We finished the evening off with ice cream. Both Sophia and my kids did… you’ll see.
And Sophia? She was all her own fun! She is walking everywhere in that incredibly adorable toddler way, so I started off by just following her. (and really hoping her curiosity didn’t drive her off the dock
)


I love nothing more than when my clients, or in some cases my client’s parents are up for anything. When they know that a fabulous shot is worth a little dirt, or damp, or freezing cold. Usually that is when my favorite images happen. And this family are those clients for me. I had so much fun a few times this session, the first of which was watching Sophia explore the beach and water. With some gorgeous evening light to help out… Happy me.

I’m also a big fan of wardrobe changes (incidentally, they’re a big help in case of dirt or wet or cold as well. Just sayin’.) So after Sophia got a little drenched her parents changed her and she was off and running again. Really, I’m fairly certain her parents spend a good portion of their day chasing her. She is fast!


And then… we took a walk and got some ice cream. And got messy. Again… happy me

Thanks for the fun Colin and Rebecca! I loved getting to see how much Sophia has grown and changed. She is so much fun! And thanks for giving me an excuse to have a fun little summer’s eve with my kids and mom as well! Fun, fun!
