Fog Was Not The Plan

Stephen and Patti are one of my favorite couples.  We did their engagement photos on the beach near where the family often vacationed in Santa Cruz, photographed their wedding, and photographed the kids growing up...

So we decided to go back to Santa Cruz and do family photos for a bit of adventure, which I am pretty much always up for.  Just when we started the FOG came in HEAVY - it was perfect and sunny just before we started. :(  At moments it was visibility at 25 feet and kind of windy/cold.  Although disappointed, we sucked it up and made the best of it.  I thought it was real interesting what we were able to get given the situation so thought I would share, here are my favorites... :)

Had to go under the pier to get any direction to the light, absolutely love the dreamy quality :)

And then of course, chase the birds ... it was getting real dark, the others were just too blurry but this one was kinda cool.

Thanks!
