Elk Grove CA High School Senior Photographer, Markie's Senior Portraits!

Going to the beach is always a huge risk. First you wonder, what is the traffic going to be like, and then of course the crowds at the beach, and lastly, the weather! What I didn't expect was a detour sign and latent wave. Always an adventure!

Luckily, the detour was slight, and came with an incredible view of the Golden Gate bridge. I will never tire of that view, particularly on a day like that day. Total and utter sun, sun, sun!

The day was going exactly as planned, and then I asked Markie if she'd like any in the water. She said yes, and before I knew it she and I were running for cover! We'd, well I should more say, she'd been taken over by a wave. I heard my mom's voice saying, "never turn your back to the ocean." We didn't exactly have our backs turned, but more sideways and of course my view was a little obscured by the viewfinder and Markie's by me distracting her!

Thank you Markie for an exciting shoot! Next time we are at the ocean together I'll let you push me in!
