Father & son and Asbury Park. I’ve waited a zillion years (ok, more like 4 or 5) to shoot down in Asbury but never got the opportunity. We even had this shoot scheduled for last summer but the week we had on the calendar it rained constantly. So I finally, finally got to shoot there with a totally awesome father & son duo- all worth the wait. 

We were all over the boardwalk area- the wonder bar, the casino, the beach, the pinball museum, everywhere. If I waited a zillion years to shoot there, you know I wanted to cover it all.

The colors were awesome and everywhere!There were not a whole lot of smiles with teeth given freely but he’s so cute it didn’t really matter that much.Rich had to mention that he had the t-shirt long before the show. Rich said his work photo is too corporate. Tried to get him some new ones. Pinball wizard maybe? (i’m so old!)The poor kid was such a trooper stopping everyplace I asked up and down(and up and down) the boardwalk. He was exhausted.The water was a little colder than anticipated.Yay, teeth! I have my funny moments. But I think his dad has more.I’ve known Rich since I’m 15. I just make fun of his old not-red Nova to get him to laugh. Works every time. (or he just gets progressively more annoyed.)

Those sneakers & laces couldn’t have worked out better. I think they love each other just a bit.Thanks for a great session and it was totally worth the ride to NJ. Ok, who’s booking Asbury next?!
