Family Shoot at Pajaro Dunes Beach

For the past 3 years, I've lived somewhat of a double life.  Nanny by day, photographer by golden hour!  The family I have nannied for has been one of the biggest blessings of my life.  I can't say enough good things about them, really!  Not only have they been wonderful employers, but have become amazing friends and a second family to me.  They have been supportive of my photography from day one and I am so thankful for their encouragement as my business has grown.  Recently, the children's grandma asked me to do a shoot of all the grandkids during their family reunion beach trip at Pajaro Dunes.  I was more than happy to make the trip over to Watsonville and just play with everyone!  The shoot began with all the formal, posed shots, but I knew I'd get the best stuff when it was just candid, beach fun. So after all the adults had their fill of photos and the kids just wanted to get their suits on and play in the water, I took my camera, plunked down in the sand and just shot away!Family portrait shoot at Pajaro Dunes Beach in Watsonville, CA.
