Chambers Bay Birthday Surprise

Chambers Bay Birthday Surprise in Tacoma, Washington. First of all, whenever I get an inquiry for a surprise, I am always on board. I love surprises. So when Puneet called me up to see if I would like to photograph his wife’s surprise 40th family birthday party, I was a hard yes.

Puneet and Tina headed down towards the water. All the family were hiding behind this concrete structure. I was hoping everyone would wait until they were close. Rather than everyone jumping out and yelling surprise, the kids had a different idea and just started running towards them once they heard they were coming.

I love the smile on Tina’s face, and even her mom’s face in the background on the right.

Check out these cool kids in their sunglasses.

Then everyone had family portraits individually and then all together.

The complete opposite facial expressions between Tina and her daughter are hysterical to me, and so sweet.

Grandparents with grandkids always makes for a great photo, especially with these kids.

After their session, I raced up to the Chambers Bay Grill to snag a few last images of the table setting where they would be dining. Puneet did all the decorations. Most noteworthy to me are the lines of carnations above the table.

Happy Birthday, Tina!!
