Beach Portraits - Makenna

A good friend of mine asked me to shoot some images of her daughter Makenna...

It was a challenge, because like a lot of kids her age, she does not embrace the idea of photos being taken of her.

With most subjects, I try to catch them just being themselves, as this usually produces the best results and brings out the soul in an image.

The beautiful thing about digital photography is the instant feedback. Both the photographer and the subject can view the images right after they are taken. Once I showed a few images to Makena, she loosened up a bit, began to trust what I was shooting and even allowed me to pose her for some dramatic effect.

Great Event in less than perfect 1-3ft surf... by the time the semis and finals rolled around the tide was dropping quickly and the surf with it... with a little corner here and there the contestants made the best of it on classic, vintage 60s longboards...
