Walk downtown to "scout" photo backgrounds

o

 We walked to Downtown Ferndale today, grabbed some ice cream at Treat Dreams and checked out some spots I want to use for a family photo shoot I have later this week.

I used the 35mm 1:1.8  again.  I do love that lens.

 We took Rex with us for the walk.  Notice him on the side?  Rex is a big part of our family right now.  Sage was initially terrified of him and slowing warmed up to him and now he likes to take him and pretend that he is eating up people, dogs etc.  He finds it so hilarious.  I need to remember to tell people who are having toddlers photographed that sometimes a familiar toy that brings them joy can change everything.  Sage only sat down with the rest of the fellas after Rex was seated with them as well.
