Liam's Beach Chair, age Five

When I started Liam's Beach Chair series five years ago, we were living with my in-laws at their seaside home. It was easy to pick a good day, when the beach wasn't too crowded, to take him down and do his pictures. The following years required a bit more planning, but as he was in preschool and I wasn't working, it was easy enough to do.

This year, however, I had him in full time school and me working every lunch time. It was a lot trickier to get him down to take his fifth year pictures, especially seeing as we've had one of the loveliest summers in years so weekends meant the beaches were packed! But, finally, I got him down to the beach and we did his shoot.
