Just look at that smile. You can't help but to smile along with him! 
We love photographing children, they are entertaining, honest and wear their emotions on their sleeves. We are well rehearsed in children,  Caitie has four,  I have five and I have taught art in elementary school, preschool and special education for many years before I turned to photography full time. 
         It is our goal make your child comfortable and truly happy so we may capture your child's true self and personality.

Let's look at it from your toddler's perspective for a minute. He is more than likely visiting the beach for the first time. This is a whole other strange and new environment for him, all senses are on high alert and emotions are ramping up for all the fight/flight. This can be seen in many forms depending on the child. They can be shy, scared, nervous, anxious, or happy until they figure out what is going on in this new place. They will look to you to guide them, if you appear upset or stressed they will think 'uh-oh, mom is nervous, I should be too".  Let's look at a few ways to help ease them into the situation so your session.
