Summer is already coming to a close and I am still blogging photos from early in the summer! I will catch up, eventually. This past summer was crazy for us and I didn't do a whole lot of photographing... but one thing I did do was get out and photograph my two little cuties a few months ago. I have known about the Mona lavender farm for a while now and I have been dying to get out and take some photos there while it was in full bloom. Unfortunately, this summer was so hot and dry that the color left a bit to be desired. But it was still beautiful and it made a great backdrop for our photos!
Any photographer who has children can attest to the fact that their own kids are the hardest to photograph! I think it's just because they are used to that darn camera capturing every little event in their lives. Hence, what was supposed to be a quick session turned into a drawn out chase. Can't blame 'em... I'm sure it was very freeing to run up and down the rows. :) I love the ones that turned out and a few of them are already printed big on my walls!
