Joanna and Justin booked a session to celebrate her 30th birthday. We met up in the morning and took photos around Beacon Hill Park followed by a quick trip down to the ocean. I sat in a pile of burs and barely missed stepping on a garter snake during this session (the latter being a major fear of mine, which I had been telling Joanna and Justin minutes prior to the incident). I survived what felt like a near snake attack, continued to high step through the long grass, and had a great time with Joanna and Justin.
