wow, it’s been so long since the sneak peek for this session was posted that i think i’d better share it again!

ok – now that’s out of the way 🙂 we had such a great time at the beach with the Koh family, who came all the way from Singapore to be my clients! ok, i might be slightly twisting the facts lol – they planned their holiday in NZ last summer and wanted family photos during the Auckland section of their family trip, so they contacted me from Singapore to book, and chose the location based on my recommendations & photos 🙂

by their own admission the Koh family are “pretty urban” in their lifestyle, and Karekare is about as opposite as you get – but they did great, coping with sand, wind, sun, dune-climbing, surf-and-river-wading like pros. and here’s the proof…

the boys got stuck into the sand pretty early on

so i grabbed a moment with mum & dad alone

we had the whole south end of the beach to ourselves

then it was time to clean up

this photo defines his character: he was the explorer, going in front & leading his family to the tops of dunes & into the river

one last photo – he’s pointing at their car! mum & dad were pretty worn out by now

it was lovely to meet you and i’m so honoured to have been able to make amazing holiday memories with you!
