The M Family {Higgins Beach} | Scarborough Maine Family Photographer

Hello, hello! It has been a hot minute since I’ve blogged, and that’s because I took my winter months and spent them recharging for a bit and then doing a whole bunch of other back end business-y things. It was a good break, a needed break, and now I am SO EXCITED to share my first family session of 2025!!

If you had told me after our colllllld months of February and March that my first beach session of the year would not only be in April, but would be on an April day with temps near 70, I would have laughed at you! But, that is exactly what happened, and I am so grateful to Mother Nature for helping me to kick off my season in the best way. This was my second time working with the M Family – Sophia, Anuj, Amar, and Naomi, and this year they wanted to head to Higgins Beach for their first beach session. I absolutely love how laid back this family is together. Our session took place pretty close to the kids’ bedtimes, and as we navigated a mix of playful giggles and some tired tears, Sophia and Anuj didn’t skip a beat – happy to play, bounce, and be silly with their seriously adorable kiddos. I love Amar’s sly smile, and Naomi’s cute little pigtails. This family makes me smile and laugh out loud, and time with them on the beach was the perfect way to kick off my year. Here are my favorites!
