i had the pleasure of photographing a sweet and spunky little girl by the name of ava.  we met at the seashore with her beautiful momma, kelly, on a lazy and warm california afternoon.  the two of them had flown in from the bay area that morning, and ava was ready to PLAY!  we scampered through the waves, made sand castles, gathered shells and searched for mermaids in the tide.  these two beautiful ladies swept through the water in gorgeous vintage dresses that caught the light.  sounds so romantic, and it was....and then the tide came in and pulled us all in, vintage dresses, sand buckets, and all.  i'm not sure what i enjoyed more....the beautiful light filled images, or the incredible time i had with these girls laughing,  playing, and lamenting our soggy plight.  thank you beautiful kelly and ava for such a wonderful session.
