laid back, cool, beautiful... it was a foggy and moody afternoon but britainy just breezed through our session--changing poses in a ridiculously natural way and basically making my job easy.

sweet sisters | arroyo grande baby photography

i'm good friends with reagan's mama and have never, ever seen this girl cry. until today. she wanted nothing to do with sitting on the grass alone and certainly wasn't going to smile her usual toothless grin for me.

big sis riley was a bit more interested in hamming it up... she even named my camera and told him a few secrets. (she loves to play dinosaurs at school, but don't tell her i told you.)





reagan was much happier without clothes and rolling around on a nice soft bed. this girl has some gorgeous eyes!

and this next image? i could die. this could not be a more perfect, sweet moment with these girls.

sweet baby delaney slept right on through 90% of our photo session. all the moves and attmepts to pose her and she snuggled right back up to fall asleep.

ryen and hayden are four and two... just like my girls. this beach session was just pure fun for me. is it really work when i get to run and play in the sand with a couple of adorable kids?

what more can you ask for on a beautiful summer day than to swing as high as your heart desires?
