The rain has finally stopped for awhile and that means it’s time to go outside and take pictures. This is the first shoot I’ve done with Mallery, and we went out to Ocean House in Loleta where I was hoping that the lupines would be in bloom. With all the rain this year, the lupines are about 3 weeks behind where they would be in a milder year. So it wasn’t as spectacular as I had hoped. Even though there was a cold breeze blowing at the coast, it still felt very nice to get out in the sun.
