I love these challenges! They’re so fun. The theme this week is “blue” and I immediately thought of this shot. We were in Laguna Beach, and I wanted to take birthday portraits of my son in his new suit. It was an important birthday, since he turned 8. In our religion, kids can choose to be baptized at the age of 8. So, it represented his first real commitment in life. I loved this shot because it showed him going on his own journey, beginning to take his first steps on his own chosen path.
