Flying Home to England (And boy are my arms tiered!)

I am so lucky to be able to meet families like the Dowsett family from England. This was the very first image I took of them. They are such natural and warm spirited people that right from their first image we had great portraiture.


There youngest decided that she could fly back to England powered by her incredible jumping ability. She nearly made it in one tremendous jump!

The two older girls caught her on her decent down from the sky...thank goodness!
The older girls attempted to carry each other on the long journey across the sea but decided it was a bit to late in the day to be traveling that far.
We had another beautiful sunset and the Dowsett family resigned to fly back to England on a plane, but I am sure they will do some amazing things when they are home. Perhaps we will be lucky enough to have them visit us here in Captiva sometime soon again.

Stanwick the Blue Heron

It is finally time to start entres in my blog again.

Being busy getting my Sanibel Captiva book together and getting my fine art prints distributed in galleries and businesses around the two islands has taken all my extra time. (also this is baseball and softball season and I spend most evenings with one of my two daughters or sons games).

I had a great session last weekend with the Houska family in Captiva. We had a Blue Heron "Stanwick" crash our session ~ he was anything but camera shy.

The three boys and Stanwick did there best impression of Stonehenge.

Captiva, water, shells, sunshine, and a happy family, what could be nicer.

There are so many sites to see and so many things to point at.

This one may make the book but will definatly make my fine art prints.
Sending all who visit this blog the very best of wishes.
