We went to the beach to get wind in our hair
to stand on the sand and simply to stare.
To let the surf tickle toes and dampen our clothes....
I'll never forget the laughter and sounds
and the freedom to run,
on that wet sandy ground.
- David Taylor
It was a covert mission of sorts.... an opportunity to gather the 3 Stanfield sons, their families and 8 grandkids as a surprise for one very special set of unknowing grandparents.
Our mission? To collect unforgettable images of each of these kids playing on the beach that has been host to several generations of Stanfield kids.
Mission accomplished.

And the pièce de résistance - all 8 kids together, timeless. Gorgeous.
