here are "the girls" from perspicasity.
over the past few years i've gotten to know ann {she's in the red} since we're in seaside so often and i was beyond thrilled to take a photo of the current crew while they were celebrating a little "end of summer" dinner on the beach.
okay is it just me, or is the girl who totally "lost her face" to her beautiful hair in the jumping photo cracking you up, too?
this family cracks me up. well, mostly just the guy with the baby. i told him he couldn't jump with a baby in his arms and showed him how to fake it. instead, i think he's waving at me. no matter what he's doing, he made me laugh...but the baby...she's not impressed.
these kids need a round of applause.
first for their exuberance and second for an amazing coordinated jump. a big thank you to their mom for letting me take their photo.
here is the most precious family from texas. i think the men kind of rolled their eyes {you know who you are dad} when i mentioned jumping, but the women all said "YES" and were not going to let long dresses get in their way.
this couple you saw in an earlier post, but they are glutens for punishment and came back for more a few nights later. i have some beautiful "anniversary" photos that i took of them, but i know that "jumpers" are patiently waiting for me to post their shots, so i included this couple's jumping photo, too.
this family i shot in one take. they were totally on board and when i said jump and it was like they had been practicing for years. younger kids usually don't get the "bent knees and arms in the air" position that i explain ahead of time, but holy toads, these kids listened and performed.
who cares how short her dress is. it's the beach.
{ps, they were adorable}
this is the cottage we stayed in and since a few of you have asked, here's the link to it.
Up, up and away!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the jumping!
ReplyDeleteOh the cottage is tooooo sweet!
I did notice and laugh at the disappearing face under the hair. FUN
that was great fun, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWith every picture, I am more amazed at how high people can jump...You really caught some great shots and happy people. They all look like they are having the time of their lives.......
ReplyDeleteThe cottage is precious and I can see why you continue to go back for more R and R....
Fun!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am reading and laughing, great stuff. Wonderful photos of beautiful people, and some great backgrounds too. II didn't know the tip of bent knees.....what do you do, walk up to stangers and say, "hey, would you jump for me?" You crack me up. Having done a family jump shot once, I know how hard it is to get the timing right, but the out takes are hilarious. Great photos Beth
ReplyDeleteWhat a happy time. :) xo Jenny
ReplyDeleteThanks for making me smile first thing this morning! The jumping photos are so much fun and what a great way to remember a vacation. I hope everyone frames and displays theirs.
ReplyDeleteThe energy and the love is so visible in each and every jump that you photograph beth, it is giving me such a boost. Thank you xo
