I have been very quiet on the blog lately as I have been doing some summer travels and busy creating memories with my own family. Of course while I absolutely love documenting special moments for families year-round, I have taken a little break to spend extra time with my kids and husband. It has been a pure joy to get away and refocus. We have been to Chicago for the weekend, visiting grandparents and long-distance friends in Philadelphia, and now here, at Bethany Beach in Delaware (our yearly place) for a week. Yes, traveling around has been a wonderful break and I’m happy to share a few photos of our favorite local beach hangouts.
The beach was wonderful, and we couldn’t believe how perfect the weather was during our stay there.
This is our favorite place to get candy and salt water taffy. I have been coming here since a little girl and there’s nothing like getting sweet treats on the busy boardwalk at night. Love it!
And here is where we love to shop for special treasures like sea shells and fun little trinkets. Again, it’s another place I’ve been frequenting for about thirty years and it still warms my heart to step into such a sweet little souvenir shop.
I hope everyone is enjoying their summers and doing some fun family activities too. On a business note, we have a few summer sessions to finish up, and then we are starting to book for the busy fall season. So, if you’d like to have a session this fall, let us know soon. Thanks!

This was one of the most fun sessions I’ve ever had! For one, it was at the beach. Two, it was five fantastic boys. Three, it was so carefree and relaxed. I truly loved running around the beach with you K family, playing bocce ball, splashing in the water, and just feeling the sand between my toes. Yes, all while shooting! What a treat to squeeze in a session during my own family travels to Delaware. (side note: If anyone ever wants a session in the Philly, Jersey, Delaware, or the New York area, just let me know. I will be open to doing sessions on the east coast—or anywhere really—if there is interest to have a bunch of sessions in one spot.)
K family, your zest for life is simply contagious. I didn’t want our time together to end. I left feeling extra loved and inspired. Your boys are amazing and adorable all at the same time. I can see the love between each and every one of you. The feeling of warmth that exudes your family is so wonderful. Thank you for allowing me to share in a snippet of your everyday. Your world together is as colorful as the shirts you all wore. By the way, will someone tell izod how cute these kids are in their classic shirts?!
These five boys are simply amazing. It was a joy to meet each one of you.
This mom is super cool and laid back. Guess you have to be with five boys, right? Well, she makes me want to go with the flow more in my own life. She is just fantastic with her kids and husband. So fun to watch through my lens.
This family portrait makes me smile. I love how much life is in it and that the kids are simply being themselves. Well worth getting soaked by a few waves that crashed a little too close. Thanks K family going along with everything and being up for anything.

I heart Bethany Beach, Delaware. Went there every year growing up, and now go every year with my family. I just love this sleepy beach town. Most of all, I love how the world seems to stop when there. Long enough to splash in the cool brisk water, build fanciful sand castles, walk for miles on the boardwalk, win prizes, go on kiddie rides, and eat as much ice cream as your heart desires. Best of all, I get to do all those things with my great husband and little ones. Life is good.
