Justin & the girls

Remember this photo here? Well, there’s more where that came from. And I’m finally posting them (sheepish look…)Justin & the girlsJustin and his two daughters, Alijah & Amariah, came by for a good time at this sweet loft in Sonora, CA. By the way, Justin looks too young to have such grown-up daughters, eh? A vegan diet will do that for ya 😉Justin, Alijah - laugh

Ah, Daddy’s little girls.

Ideally, I’d insert a flash gallery here with a sequence of pics I simply call “The Granola Bar Sequence.” However, due to the constraints of WordPress and the ProPhoto Blog, I’ll have to put it in a separate post below. Otherwise, the flash gallery will show all the granola bar pics plus the ones you just saw. And I’m not cool with posting something twice…

Alijah & Amariah

Alijah & AmariahAmariahI’m just enchanted with all those hair strands glinting in the sun (photo on the right). I have another shot where Amariah’s hair is brushed back, out of her face, but the photo just doesn’t have the same punch without the glinting hair strands.

Thanks, ladies, for a fun shoot!

Alijah on a rainy day

2 photos of Alijah

It was cold and pouring rain when we shot outside last Tuesday, but you’d never know it from the photos. Alijah was such a trooper, braving the elements for some great shots. So easy going, too! I love laid-back people who are open to trying whatever I suggest. (Ex: “Alijah! Wrap yourself up in the hammock!” And away she went, wrapping herself up in the hammock. And look at the nice result!) What a model.
