A great beach close to home - FootSteps Photography Okinawa

This beach has to be one of the best beaches for families with small children. Beach, rocks, grass, beautiful views and even a small park. Also for this family it is almost out their backdoor from their house.

Beautiful colors were abound today during the shoot. I decided to play around a little with an old-school method I learned during film development classes in collage with this one only with digital methods.

Just the kids this time - FootSteps Photography Okinawa

Get ready for a bit of an overload on blog posts as I have been busy busy busy and neglected updating the blog.

Here are a few of just this families two cute, silly and very active kids. It made for one tiring photo shoot keeping up with these two. As once down by the water I don't think anyone get to stay dry. A wave came up and I was wet up to my shoulders. It could be that I was lying down in the sand at the time.

 

Having a laugh together

Brother sister and puppy too

I loved the dark stormy clouds off in the distance with the white wave froth and blue green ocean in front.

Studio Short and Sweet session - FootSteps Photography Okinawa

A couple of weeks ago my good friend and her daughter came over and we did some quick photos of her in the most beautiful dress her daddy got her when he was TDY.

I finally got to use one of my new backdrops with her. I think the colors on these photographs would make PERFECT metallic prints as well as beautifully wrapped canvases.

Okinawan Culturesque photo session

Taking a look at all of the photos from this family session will just make you want to scream OKINAWA. They were all troopers. Anyone who has been on Okinawa for the last month knows that it is going to rain on the weekend. Yep it rained on us on and off the entire time. We just had to duck and cover for a few short bursts of time.  It did not seem to both the kids any.

It's baby season

It must be baby season on Okinawa. Two newborns in one week is rare for me but this sweet little girl came as the second newborn baby photographed a few days after the newborn boy was in the studio. It seems that every newborn gets immediately hungry under the studio lights as did this little girl. She finally fell asleep and we got some great shots with help from mom and dad.
