Miss Sydney at the Beach

After all the crazy session at City Park, we headed out to Gulfport to the amazing outlet malls there. Anyone out there that has a Coach fetish like I do, take note that the Coach Outlet in Gulfport has the BEST deals!!! Anyways, after some damage to our wallets we stopped by the beach in Gulfport (near where we did their family session in July) on the way home to let Sydney run off some more energy as she had not enjoyed being cooped up for the remainder of the day in her stroller. I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to get any shots considering how dark it was and I had not brought my flash, but I was essentially stunned with the low light action on my new D700. Sydney is sporting an outfit that I picked up for her 3rd birthday on Etsy, is it not the most adorable thing EVER? I told you, this skirt is CRAZY but cute. I just wish that we’d got to the beach before dusk set in and it was still in the ‘sweet light’ hour.

This shot isn’t perfection by any means but I had to show you how awesomely crazy this skirt is! It’s made out of chiffon so it is super soft, tulle is cute but way too scratchy for toddlers!

She’s got an adorable smile!

So precious!

Almost a year after our first session on the beach and Sydney still hasn’t quite let go of her love for playing, eating and flinging sand! Then again, I’m 30 and I haven’t either!

Sydney loves to spin and spin and spin in this skirt, this is caught mid-spin!

It isn’t a day at the beach until you roll around in it a bit!

This is how dark it was at Gulfport Beach during our shoot, we were there for about 15 minutes or so and this was taken about 5 minutes before we left, so I am not kidding when I say the light for these shots was less than ideal!
