After Christmas portrait at the Balboa Pier Newport Beach

What a joy to do what I love to do, and that is taking photographs of families. It was a little challenging with the “little guys”, but we had lots of fun in Newport Beach at the Balboa Pier.

A special THANK YOU to Erika and her precious family.

Thank You for capturing our family Christmas reunion on the beach. You had the daunting task of getting all 13 of us, including munchkins that were’t cooperating to smile and have fun all the while getting awesome shots. You were patient and creative and the photos are outstanding. We look forward to the next time we will be together and do it all over again.

Many, many thanks Rafael.
