See this gorgeous couple?! I'm the lucky one that gets to call them my family! I could not be happier to share in the love and excitement for my cousin, Sarah and her hubby-to-be, Mark! Sarah and I have always been more like sisters rather than cousins and when she asked me to take these pictures - I was absolutely honored! It is so obvious to see the special connection that these two share and I'm glad they wanted (were willing, right Mark?!) to take time away from relaxing on the beach and capture some beautiful engagement pictures! I can't wait to be a part of your special day next June, love you guys!!!

We often forget how important it is to capture our families as they grow and I'm so happy this family wanted portraits of their sweet and beautiful daughters, Anna and Mia! Thank you guys for letting me be a part of your Sunday afternoon; I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them!

Thanks to the Grippa family for being so flexible! This crazy summer weather brought the rain in just when their shoot was about to start. I had so much fun working with you all and capturing your "hungry caterpillars"! I hope you all enjoy the rest of your summer!

While the Bear's pup didn't make it to the shoot, Jamie's personality definitely did! This family is so fun and it was such an honor to get to capture family portraits as well as play time in park! Thank you Bear family for braving the weather and getting a little wet to get these great shots! 

I'm so happy that I was able to work with this family! Thank you Alison, Britten and Farrah for tolerating the sprinkle of rain and letting me capture beautiful moments with your family! Farrah is such a curious and active 14 month old girl and she definitely lives up to her name, which means "beautiful"!
