Just wanted to share with you a bit of what I was up to last week!  Sometimes the simplest locations can be the best.  Even though the beach can be tricky with lighting, using the shade of the pier will take away the harsh light.  I love the soft look of these photos.  Parks are also a no-brainer for photo shoots.  I look for big trees to filter the light.  Again, no harsh light.  And a little bit of sunset back lighting doesn’t hurt either!
