Most of my family’s show up in blue, so these warm tones were definitely welcome! The Roach family lives in La Jolla so we popped on over to a nearby beach for some candid photos of the kids. The family hired me a few years back and dad was included in those portraits but let’s be honest, sometimes dads don’t want their photo taken (year after year). And that’s okay! I understand it’s not for everyone but please don’t let that stop you from having your children’s portraits taken. Childhood is fleeting and capturing them in all stages of life is a wonderful way to look back with fond memories.
