The title of this post is Pebble Beach "Photo Shoot", but I use the term "photo shoot" VERY loosely with these pictures!
While we were in Pebble Beach, one of my "goals" was to go down to the beach & take some family pictures. I have an empty frame sitting in our closet for about 2 years. The frame holds 3 pictures & I really wanted to get some family pictures so that I could FINALLY put up the frame in our bedroom! And, I wanted to get an updated family picture since Claire is changing & getting bigger each month!
So, I asked my younger sister Rebecca if she would be willing to snap a few of 4 of us. I set up my camera & the settings for her & told her how to use my camera since she had no idea how to use it. Bless her heart.
This task was a lot harder that I thought. It is hard trying to pose your family with 2 kids under 2.5 years old & telling them to look at the camera. The whole time I am barking orders at my sister, telling her what to do, telling Kevin to look at the camera & also trying to get the girls to look at the camera (and smile!).
Thanks for putting up with me (Rebecca AND Kevin!) I know I wasn't the nicest person during the 10 minute "photo shoot" :)
We were able to get a couple family pictures that I was *somewhat* happy with.
I think these next 2 are my favorites and I might make one of them my new facebook profile picture since I haven't changed it since Easter!
After the 10 minute family session, I took a couple of the girls:
The above picture is the only one where they are both looking at the camera!
The sand was too distracting & fun to play in! Looking at the camera is boring! Sand is fun!

I love the third one down!
ReplyDeleteAwesome photos! Your girls are precious, and you and Kevin continue to be two of the smiliest, most photogenic people I know!
ReplyDeleteI love the ones where the girls arent looking at the camera, especially when the claire is playing in the sand. so cute.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Heather, that third one down is super cute! And I think the ones of the girls playing with the sand are adorable. Natural and fun. :)
ReplyDelete(P.S. I'm going to assume it's okay for me to put your blog in my blog roll too. :)
