What are Sundays like for Jeff, Morgan, and Jeff’s girls Kate & Alex? Well, I got to find out recently. We planned one of my Family Photojournalism photography session to get a slice of life and document their life together.
It started at Jeff and Morgan’s beautiful little home in Linda Vista with Morgan getting ready to go out, and Jeff hanging out with the girls. Getting bored of waiting for Morgan, they decided to go play in the trees in the front yard. And Alex grabbed one of my cameras and became a photographer too.
Once Morgan was done, we all piled into the car and headed down to the Tecolote Shores Park in Mission Bay for a couple really nice formal portraits and the kids (little and big) got to play.
Everyone has to wait for Morgan’s hair to be perfect.
“But daddy…. We’re bored fo waiting for Morgan!”
The chihuahuas, Fraggle and Rocky have grabbed Alex’s attention.
Belly RUBS!!!
Jeff looks on at his silly daughters.
“Will I get in trouble if I ask if you’re ready yet?”
Still bored, time to climb the tree in the front yard!
Spider Monkey Girl!
More monkeying around.
Tag you’re it!
Alex contemplating a branch… and the meaning of life.
Kate doing the same.
So much for inconspicuous ninja photojournalist! The little monkey stole one of my cameras!
How the tables have turned. Alex has become the family photographer!
Dad has become the puppet master! Now do the YMCA.
“You have a smudge on your chin there… Nope freckle.”
Morgan FINALLY got ready, and we all headed down to enjoy the sunset at Tecolote Park on San Diego’s Mission Bay.
A more formal family portrait. With everyone. Including Fraggle and Rocky.
Morgan with some filthy animal, and her dogs. 😄
Jeff taking on the monkeys.
She kept yelling “I’m going to throw up….” And Morgan just stood their cracking up.
“OK… this just isn’t going to work out.”
“Hey, what gives we were supposed to jump on 3!”
And the Heisman Trophy goes to Jeff Banman!
Morgan attempting her own version of a UFC style arm bar/rear leg triangle choke maneuver. …It did not work.
“I don’t want to go daddy. I want to play some more!”
Ham it up.
Such a perfect day. I’m glad I spent it with you.
