The Clan


The Clan

Normally when people want to get the golds and oranges for their backdrop, sunset is a logical choice. However, if you're an East-sider, you're more used to seeing the sun come up at 5:30 in the morning (during the summer). Although I'm generally am the worst person when it comes to waking up early, sunrises always seem to get my blood flowing. That being said, waking up was the least difficult part of this shoot. The most difficult part was C.A.D.H.D - yup, Canine Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. Laka and Leila were VERY hyper. Evidently just above the life-guard shack lives a family of chickens, and for two dogs, nothing makes their day like chasing some chickens - hence why the dogs never wanted to look at me.




Finally after about fifteen minutes (yes, the shoot took fifteen minutes) we decided it was time to let the kids lose and they took off into the hills overlooking the beach. We then went back to their house to take some shots of their other child - a very pleasant and vibrant macaw. Billy and Don's house is AMAZING as they own a pool and water features company (Tropical Waterfeatures - look them up, they do crazy work!). I was so blown away with how cool their house was, I asked if I could also do my afternoon bridal shoot at their house. Stay tuned in a few days for shots from that awesome shoot!
