we absolutely love it when we get to catch up with our couples. we shot sandra and michael's super-charged dance-off wedding last october and when michael called us again recently we jumped at the chance to get some updated family shots for them. daryl and lisa (bro and sis) also brought their ohana to join in the fun. what better place to take pictures of a san diego families than on a san diego beach, la jolla to be exact. the day was perfect. the surf was warm. the families were awesome. southern california goodness follows.
these guys couldn't be contained for long...
we got a few serious shots and then...
resumed our normal fun. the beat-down angle was going good until a crab crawled on my arm. not cool.
are these some good looking kids or what?
smiles me likey.
this is how fun mike and sandra are. sandra thought mike was a little too dry :)
not quite sure what to call this... oh yeah, it's FUN!
is laughing allowed in tai chi? it is if we're doing it.
fun with kelp.
this was the warm-up round...
and here's the final round.
muscles, muscles, and more mussels.
paper, snow, a ghost!
actually, it was just a crab.
beautiful ohana
jack johnson has bubble toes. we have mussel toes.
on the rocks with a splash of salt.
it's a walk off! lisa won.
i absolutely loved spending time with these families. their smiles were definitely catchy.
we just fed off their laughter and had a super fun family shoot. thank you sandra, mike, lisa, daryl, and your wonderful ohanas for having us out. you really gave us some family time to treasure.
they weren't part of the family, but kim got this cool shot anyway.

You can see the connection you made with this family. I really like the first straight face ones. It's a nice modern spin on the white shirt blue jeans thing. Oh, the surfer shots are really nice as well.

I just love this family! Their personalities totally shine through in your pictures and they seem so fun! Love the tug of war and the girl on the rock.
those are sooo fun! such a lovely family :)
The serious family shots are great!!! I love not seeing the usual posed icky blue jean/white shirt family shoots, but this one is so unique and so full of emotion. These are real and I just love how you captured them interacting with each other like they would without cameras pointed at them. Bravo on this shoot, bravo!
All around fun shots - what a great looking family!
Your family shoots are always just so fun!! Love all the "posing" shots of the girls ;) That warm light family shot on the rocks is AWESOME!! I would Love a shot like that for over my mantle, especially since I live where there is NO beach :/ GRRRR....
You always capture the best in family pictures, making them look fun and playful.
As for the very last image of the surfer dudes: very nice. YOu gave me an idea: when i come to SD, I want to hit the beach with Kim so we can photograph surfers all day for your blog entries Dave.
Help you out a little. ;)
