Summer is my very favorite season, by far. I will Summer is my very favorite season, by far. I will forever choose being sweaty over being cold, rain over snow, beaching over skiing. My older two kids start school tomorrow, which signifies the unofficial end of summer, and I’m not ready to let go of this season! Despite the fact that we have three kids, two full time jobs, and zero childcare all summer, the warmth just fuels my soul and it’s never enough.

Oftentimes people are very stressed about making sure that everyone’s outfit stays pristine during photos. Y’all, please, embrace the spill, the dirt, the grass stains, the drool. This picture tells SO MUCH MORE of a story than if we hurriedly changed him into dry clothes and didn’t let him dig in to a peach. This is so much more authentic, and in my opinion, way more adorable. I want to make your pictures feel like a beautiful mess of real life, and we are going to miss those moments if we keep stopping to fix things that deserve to be memorialized anyhow. 

On the topic of outfits, stay tuned for a post featuring some recent vision boards/ outfit planning that I’ve been doing for clients recently!

Getting family photos done during your vacation is the ultimate way to romanticize your life. What beautiful memories we made that evening! And lest you think that perfect pictures require a perfect evening, just know that this session started with a diaper blowout and ended way past bedtime. 

I could fit in 1-2 more travel sessions within New England this summer, let’s get planning!
If you scroll back a couple posts to the last outd If you scroll back a couple posts to the last outdoor family session I posted, both of them are in the same location with the same number of people in the family. This is such a great example of how every session is different, even when certain aspects match others. A different day, different wander, different weather, a different family with their own personal connection. The same photographer making sure that your photos turn out unique to you 😘
