(sneak peek here) another pre-christmas session on a beautiful evening down at shakespear park resulted in the following pictures (and many more). we began with a take-away dinner of pizzas (excellent suggestion robyn) and then the family got changed while i prepared my gear.

here’s my favourites from the session…

i have to do a big vote of thanks to this family for being so gorgeous that it made my job easy! the girls were delightful and so excited to be at the beach and loved climbing around on the trees and posts, and running in the long grass. we are fortunate to live in such a beautiful city!

last sunday (the one with the good weather, lol) we met up at takapuna beach for some fun in the sun (and in the shade). little gion (will have to check the spelling of his name) is just so handsome (we all decided that “cute” wasn’t very manly lol) and his parents were good fun and made my job easy – i had a ball doing their session, so here’s a sneak peek to share in advance…

still catching up on blogging last year’s sessions – here’s another one of my faves. this super-photogenic family chose a beach where i grew up – so it was really fun to be there with them, capturing their young family. little gion was so excited to be at the beach, all he wanted to do was get down and cover his parents with sand & water 🙂

sneak peek here (check it out so i don’t have to post the photo twice)

and here’s some more top picks from the session…

thanks john, gion & girija, for a fun afternoon! 🙂
