I loved this morning. There is something about maternity photos that make me want to get pregnant again. For all those women out there getting prego or thinking about a bun in the oven…you MUST do at least one belly shoot. Don’t wait for #3 like Tara! Yes, when I asked Tara to bring out the sexy model in her, she laughed. But look at these photos. She did great! And so did her two daughters Avery and Riley.
I met them at a little strand of beach in Manhattan Beach called El Porto. It was perfect. 
There is something about this photo I love. Of course the surfer is super cool, and the girls just playing in the background. They wanted mostly black and white photos, but this one had to be color!





One of my favorites from the day by far!

Of course we had to squeeze in a family shot. Someday they can tell their little boy that he was in this family photo and that we didn’t leave him out!
Okay, this is my favorite of Tara. Tara, if you are reading this, you are so pretty. I love your relaxed smile here. Just a great portrait!
