Local beach fun

This family is back for a second year. What a beautiful family...we did this session on the 12th...yes, it rained almost ALL day. We managed to catch the full hour of non rain...can you even tell. I bet not, never worry...I always call the "game" if it is not possible. But I do pussssh the envelope to accomplish beautiful memories. i also truly appreciate how difficult, timely and stressful it is for "Mom's" to get the whole session in place. Thank you!!

"Bridge of LOVE" in Italy

This photo really speaks "thousands" of words... I am in Cinque de Terre (Italy) which was breath takingly beautiful..like where would you vacation from if LIVED here!!?? That's another topic. So this "bridge" which is a covered walk way connected the first of the 5 towns to the second. The story goes~that then the villagers were able to date others in the next town. So they met along this pathway and had little love nest spots (lol). Of course, life changes...so now they walk along it. Hence the photo...OK..see all those locks on the fence behind me? This just gets better ~lmao! So now the "in love" couples walk along the pathway and lock their love together and THEN they throw the key over the cliff into the ocean. LOL!!! Ok, I know..I am trying, but please...they are young in love and ...yes, yes..it works. whatever! So..on the inside the wall the tour guide was translating the Italian writing and it was ALL heartbreak messages for the missing other half to find! About how one of the "locked" couples would love them forever, would always be in their hearts. Aaaahhh, too be young! hee,hee! This is my funny post for the month.
