The Family Photographer

91

The timing was perfect because I was a photographer while the kids were growing up.  So I would call them up and we’d go on photo shoots everywhere.  At that time, nobody knew who the kids were so I didn’t have to compete with anybody to get the shot.  I had them all to myself.  Kelia Moniz the Princess before she became the Queen of Queen’s.     

I would make Seth do things he really didn’t want to do.  Haha.  He would be so irritated at me at times but I would always tell him, “if you want to be a pro surfer, this is part of the job.  So stand behind those flowers and smile.”  Haha.  

This was before the iPhone and digital camera days so you didn’t know how the photo turned out until you developed it.  Josh, Micah, and Isaiah on their first fishing trip.  So cute!
