two sneak peeks in one evening – what is going on? lol… but i had to share one from a recent beach family shoot. this handsome young dog was so patient, and so funny! he loved it when it was time to go off-leash and get wet & dirty… but this photo was taken a little bit earlier, when he was still presentable (look at those eyes!)

couple of months back, i met up for an evening at the beach with the sweetest wee girl and her dog, oh – and their mum and dad too! max & marie love the beach, and marie wanted to create lasting keepsakes from their regular family walks. i love her reasoning: no need to wait, just do it right now, because life is always changing and these simple everyday memories will become more precious than you can imagine

i have a lot of faves – so, enough chat, here’s the pics 🙂

gorgeous duke looks so vicious in the second photo – but in fact he was just trying to spit all the sand out of his mouth & nose!
