Merry Christmas!

 

Stewart Family.

It has been my pleasure over the past few months to get to know this beautiful family of girls! I was thrilled when they asked me to take their Christmas pictures. And what a better place to do that then the beach . . . .  

 

 

 

The Livingston Family.

Four boys and the oldest is 6. How awesome is that? They are crazy and goofy and love sticks! I am pretty sure that taking pictures was not high on their list of fun things to do, but they were good sports and I think hiking around the Batiquitos Lagoon in Carlsbad helped. I think it is one of my favorite places to shoot.

 

 

Happy Halloween!

 

A Scottish Ceilidh.

This was my first experience attending a Scottish ceilidh (pronounced 'kay-lee'). A ceilidh is a traditional Gaelic social gathering, which usually involves folk music and dancing. This one started off Tyler and Kimberlee's wedding events and was totally amazing! The Reel Stramash, a band made up of two acordian players and a drummer, had everyone dancing till midnight. I think we need to bring ceilidh's to the United States . . . .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Breinholt Family.

The Breinholt family is good friends with the Johnson's and joined them on their San Diego vacation. They are great!  Hopefully they will decide to come back every year . . . .
