Girlfriends

Lipgloss. High heels. Purses. Manis & pedis.

But the best part about being a girl is your girlfriends.

For her birthday, Desiree received a gift certificate for a photo session from her BFF, Grace.

And who did Des think of having her photo session with? But her closest friends and sister, of course!

It hasn't been the first time (and probably won't be the last) that it was pouring,

pouring, pouring, until the very last second before I stepped out of my car on site for a photo session.

I don't know what it is, or if the photography gods are on my side, but it's amazing

how such an ugly day can clear up for a successful session at South Pointe Park.

We still had to deal with some wind (I caught some of the girls adjusting their hair :) ),

but lighting was perfect and hardly anyone in the park / on the beach.

Desiree was a bit shy at first to take some solo portraits, but I'm glad she

warmed up to the idea...She looks great, and as her friends would say "so delicious"!
