Time to Unplug

Unplugging is a hard thing to do. But I find that a couple days of vacation helps to slow my sometimes frantic pace.

We’ve had the awesome opportunity this week to spend a few days in Port Aransas, and though it’s technically a “working” trip, it’s been amazing. The wedding I’m photographing is Saturday night, but we decided to come down yesterday for a couple extra days of R&R. We’re just a block away from the beach and have spent much time there. Sandcastles, swimming, and long drives along the coast. It’s so relaxing. When we’re not at the beach, we are either eating, swimming at the hotel pool, or watching re-runs of Everybody Loves Raymond. It’s been awesome so far. Since there’s a high likelihood of me forgetting to blog when I get back, I thought I’d get a little head start. Here are a few of the trip highlights…

Our awesome friend, Nick, swapped cars with us so we could cruise the beach in his Jeep. It’s been so much fun! We took this shot to replicate a pic I have of my family and I on the beach in front of a Jeep. :)DSC_4294 DSC_4296 DSC_7974 DSC_7976
Abby took this pic of Aaron and I. I look strangely like Medusa this whole trip. Which is, of course, not the photographer’s fault… just a fact. Crazy hair.DSC_7986 DSC_7993
This is a crab we found as we were climbing the rocks. We’ve seen tons of great wildlife on this trip. Dolphins, crabs, a scarlet ibis (my favorite!), and more!DSC_7997

A beach trip just wouldn’t be complete without a photo like this! DSC_8007
