you're a beach girl after all!

I talked this farm girl into heading to the beach for her senior session. We met up in Cayucos, CA, and I think we were both pleasantly surprised at just how easy it was for her to slip into full beach-girly mode! Cayucos has always been one of my favorite spots on the Central Coast, as it offers the perfect balance of natural beauty and small, beach-town charm. We definitely hit the weather jackpot- clear, sunny skies, a sparkling ocean, and just enough wind for the hair drama.

We decided to throw a beach cruiser in the mix, because, why not?

Very, cute, very Senior Year.

The session ended with a comfy spot in the sand, while we watched the sun go down and pretended that the pretty beach houses along the cliffs were ours, because what's a senior year without goals??
