san diego chargers fans family session

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.
