this was one occasion that i was glad an earlier photo session had to be cancelled for bad weather – because it took place yesterday instead; and we couldn’t have had better weather for it! we were on the beautiful north shore at the beach in the early evening, with one of my favourite families – and here’s the result…

her favourite colour on here is orange

love how the beach grass works with the basket

i warned you – his eyes are as stunning as his big sister’s!

sand-between-the-toes

much braver near the sea with daddy

all his smiles were for mummy & daddy… i got startled looks & boredom! 🙂

driving her ‘sand car’ made by daddy

family time – after we recovered from the curious visiting dog!

a quiet moment

if you look you can see her legs are half buried – courtesy of daddy

such a smart boy in his nautical theme outfit – and the collar is behaving! 😉

the famous stone chair under Merkesworth Castle (yes a real stone castle is up there on the cliff… the original owner/builder also created the basalt sea walls and this awesome giant chair)

a rare child-free moment

thanks guys for a great evening – it’s so much fun to watch your babies grow up through my lens 🙂
