The Life of a Military Family
It’s hard to be far away from family when you have young children. That’s especially true when your spouse is deployed. This military family makes the most of their time in Hawaii with frequent trips to the beach. It’s become a morning ritual. Some days Peyton wants to charge the water. Others, he is content to poke at crab holes and dig in the sand. This morning ritual was something Emily wanted to capture. And some grandparents all the way on the east coast might have begged and pleaded for nice photos a bit too.
Sunrise at Kalama Beach
Since Peyton was turning one, we planned a short photo session to capture this milestone at Kalama Beach Park. He recently began to master walking, but the deep sand was still a challenge. He looked at us in exasperation and held out a tiny fist for help. And then he faced a dilemma – head to the water, play in the sand, or chase dogs down the beach. His face screwed up into intense concentration as he flitted between water and sand. He played hard and went home ready for a long nap.
