Beach Photo Shoot - 2012

Vacation week has become a time to note my grandchildren's growth from the year before. My daughter plans in advance and includes a special outfit for each child in the suitcase. We hope for great weather and head to the beach somewhere near sunset on a perfect afternoon. Heather is all about those special portraits that make an excellent addition to her photography portfolio. Me? Well, I'm always waiting for the leftovers. As an artist, I'm more interested in capturing moments when the children are being theirselves. I always get a few head" shots, but I'm just as happy with a profile, the back of their head, even the turn of a foot ... any one of those little things that reminds me of the special attributes of my grandchildren.
