Griego {Family}

There is nothing like a bond between a mother and her boys.  I am so blessed to have crossed paths with Teresa.  She contacted me because she like my 'different' style and how I like to just have fun with my photos.  Teresa is a roller derby, tomboy, air force, fun, and kick ass mom of two teenaged boys.  This woman does it all and her boys were so well mannered it made me love her even more because of the way she is raising her boys.  While most families bond over going out, or staying home the Griego family loved to hit the streets on their long boards.  With these props, the Okinawa streets and this fun loving family I knew this would be a fun shoot. Our kids will always be our 'babies' an no matter how old they get take advantage and get in front of the camera with them.  I'm glad that not only Teresa did this but took advantage of her stay in Okinawa to capture the awesomeness in what is just down the street and in the ally ways.












 Gah, I have mentioned I miss Okinawa, yet?!? 

Check out the following blog posts from around the world. Make sure to leave them some love too! Thank you!
