This year, my family was lucky enough to be treated to a week-long vacation in Ft. Walton Beach, FL, courtesy of my wonderful mother and step-father. As I had not taken my daughter's 3 year portrait yet, I jumped at the chance to have some unique photos of her on the beach. 3 year olds do not really care to have their pictures taken, so little Miss Kara made her father and I work for the shots we wanted. With the lingering reward of ice cream hanging over her head, Kara, her father, and I pulled through with what I consider to be some pretty awesome shots. Enjoy!
