We had been wanting to have family pictures taken ever since Ryder was born, but because of the lockdown we had to wait a few months until it was safe, not to mention access to the beaches was prohibited. We bought him the perfect little outfit, but he ended up growing out of it, haha. We were able to use the shirt though, it just didn’t button all the way.

We got up early and arrived at Baker Beach at 8AM to beat the crowds that were piling in since the restrictions on beach access were lifted. It was a perfect morning, sunny and breezy. We parked in the residential area and had to hike down, so we got a little workout at the same time. The little guy was really good, started crying a bit at the end, but it was finally nice to be out again. It was Ryder’s first time at the beach as well. Success!
