My First Photo Shoot

I did my first photo shoot of my best friend and her beautiful family at Natural Bridges Beach on Thursday. I was super nervous. I wanted to capture how special their connection is and how beautiful their family is for them. I really enjoyed  taking pictures of them. Kaylee played in the water and Leah was having nothing to do with it! My best friend Ashley is so gorgeous, it was hard to get a bad picture of her.  I am so fortunate to have such wonderful friends that are my guinea pigs for my passion in photography. Here are some of my favorite shots of the Gooch Family.

I Heart Faces week 18 "Laughter"

This week at I Heart Faces the theme is Laughing. Right away I thought of this picture of Carlee. She was running circles around me as I tried to take her picture. She was being so silly and laughing hysterically as I tried to keep up with her!  Check out other great photos at http://iheartfaces.blogspot.com/

Boardwalk Beach

We went to Boardwalk Beach again today, but this time Daddy got to come! Haylee walked on the beach for the first time to her daddy! The girls dug a whole together and watched it fill up with water then proceeded to splash each other. Haylee was amused by her reflection and the water rushing up to her. They both were covered in sand and soaking wet. It was a fun day filled with sand, water and giggles!

Sandy Sisters

Today we went to the beach since the rain finally stopped! Carlee danced with seaweed as Haylee shoved fist-fulls of sand in her mouth. I really enjoyed watching the girls take in the sunshine and fresh air since we've been cooped up inside lately. Watching the girls play and seeing their different personalities emerge reenergizes me. They are both beach babies. Haylee squeels with excitement every time we step on the sand and Carlee races right to the waters edge to feel the water on her feet.  Life is so good! I am just so blessed to be their mommy.
