Aloha and the island

I will only post 2 pictures from the vaca to Kauai here. It was beautiful and we all fit right in, just like the locals...really! Though my husband doesn't agree yet. I totally think so. :)



I just had to post a couple things from two weeks ago. We ventured down to Julian, CA for the girls to do a photoshoot with AH!mazing photographer Joy - of Wildflowers Photography - who was down there doing a workshop.
The first day ended in "fairy land" sunshine. My girls actually called this place fairyland. The second day started in rain and an almost canceled shoot, but ended in an enchanting setting among the milky fog.
I only managed to take a few pictures since it was just me and the girls on a road trip in a weird, old place. Julian is a beautiful place, but is a bit old and weird. Well here are just a few of this apple orchard farm town.

Hang Loose

When Daddy is a surfer the whole family knows how to hang loose and have a good time. Jacksen, Justice and "Baby Girl" Devin are such fun and joyful little people that made this shoot real easy. We got to their house, raided the garage for surf and skate boards and went on our way. The cloudy day also made it real easy to shoot without the glaring sun and squinty eyes. Even though the sky was grey  their happy little smiles light up all the shots. Makes me smile to look at these photos. They also happen to be our neice and nephews so I might be a little biased. :)
