What is the biggest compliment (and cause of stress) for a photographer? To photograph a fellow photographer’s family. Talk about pressure to perform!

Jen is a fabulous photographer out of Maryland. When she vacationed in North Carolina, I photographed her last-portraits-of-family-of-three (get it? soon to be family of four!)

Little Kaylee was so good and trained really well (it’s also known as photographer’s child syndrome

I took those pictures on my educational trip to Philadelphia/NJ back in June. My beautiful friend Melissa agreed to be one of the models for our morning beach session (I was more interested in catching up with my friend than actually photographing). Last time I saw her, she was a mother of one. Look at this gorgeous family now! Amazing! I had so much fun seeing my friend.

What was up with the sand that you all kept looking at ?

Since we are on the east coast, beautiful beach sunsets are not at option, but early sunrises are! Not that it’s easy to wake up at 4.30am, but so worthy!

It was amazing to watch the rising sun to change the color of the sky, water, sand… This beautiful mom was such a trooper, thank you!

The rain last week was truly a blessing – I was able to catch up on so much office work, I feel back in the game. and finally work on the beach pictures. This daddy’s little girl was running all over the beach, it was so not easy to chase her in the sand.

Here is a sneak peek!
