The Wells Family – Newport Beach Family Portraits

I love how fun these pictures are. The movement, the color and the breeze… I love you can tell how brisk it was! You’re probably wondering how we had such perfect weather that day… funny story: ONE- every day is perfect in Newport Beach, and TWO- Christina and I have been trying to coordinate a rainy day family shoot for like a year now. Granted the first one we were thinking about was when Christina was still pregnant, but hey, it still counts! We wanted rain, clouds, umbrellas, boots, all fabulous things that come with fabulous wet weather that we So Cal-ers don’t get to see much of. We wanted rain, and we got perfect weather.

As I drove down to Newport for the shoot, it was POURING. I had saran wrap on my camera, plastic bags, umbrellas, rain boots, I was ready for this storm. And I got about 10 miles from the coast blue sky started popping out. It was bright and sunny the whole shoot, and then I hopped back in my Honda, (stopped at my favorite donut shop ever!) and drove 15 miles inland and… RAIN. Murphy’s law, right? So while the weather was honestly breathtaking, it wasn’t quite what we were going for.

I think we still pulled out a win though. But it’s really hard not to with great weather, fabulous styling, and such a good looking family!

Isn’t she the most fashionable baby? I would totally rock that outfit. Kinda helps that her mom Christina has her own line of children’s clothes and accessories that are just adorable. You can find info & shop at littlewellies.com
