the people: patronas family

This session started with a big hug and ended with a full belly and more hugs. That’s the Greek way. The way they embrace people – both literally and figuratively – is a part of what makes them so special. And of course, I wasn’t able to leave until I had sampled every delicious home cooked dish available in the house and some pizza too, in case I was still hungry. My kind of people and my kind of photo session!

The Patronas clan keeps growing and being able to get all their busy schedules together was quite the feat! And the family keeps growing. We had a great time at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, but this little one wasn’t really that impressed with me.

The rest of them thought I was just okay.

Until I made them climb a bunch of rock, baby and all, and stand on a narrow precipice while high tide was splashing in.

These guys didn’t mind climbing some rocks








Thanks for a great day and making me feel like part of the family!

Thank you Hanssie for making this day a dreamy and fun day for our big family! We wanted to make sure before you left that we would send you off to your family before your curfew and well fed like a Princess! :)
We enjoyed our time with you, chasing after the waves, winds and rock climbing! :) ~ You are like family to us now! :)

Many Blessings and Love,
Debbie and Patronas Tseperis & Roussos Family!
