Just wanted to thank my dear old friend Les for a fun but stressful photo shoot of my family. Yes, it was my bright idea to ask Les if she would be so kind as to take photos of my DD and two nieces who were visiting from LA. She was so nice to agree and said my bro and SIL could also take family photos and my mom could join in with the 3 granddaughters. My plan was to get at least one good one of the three girls so I could blow it up for my mom and frame it.
Before I show you the photos, wanted to share the thank you card I made for Les. First saw this on Eunice's blog (A Star for Chiemi) and she referenced Michele's blog (My Simple Crafts) where she had a link to a youtube video on how to make this card. Thank you ladies! Love this idea! Les couldn't join us for dinner at Macaroni Grill so my mom gave her a gift card so she could go later. Here's the inside of the card.
Anyway, for a good laugh at what we went through... check out Les' blog for more photos and the back story. She was stressed out on her side because her computer wasn't working and she used the wrong camera settings, and I was stressed out because the girls didn't want to have to do the photo shoot twice.... let's just say there were some meltdowns.
Despite all the stressing out... Les managed to get some really nice photos on Day 2. Who knew that this pretty park was right next to Kuakini??? I sure didn't! Thanks Les- you da best! Oh yah- the next time get another bright idea- remind me of this one!
Here's some of my favorites from the photo shoot(s)...
And don't forget Miley Sakamoto??
