For the past eleven years, I have looked forward to my evenings at Goose Rocks Beach with the “P” Family. What started with an expectant Sarah and Steve has turned into a family of five with three awesome kiddos – Daniel, Molly, and Charles, and every year I have the extreme honor of capturing them together at their favorite getaway in Maine. What I love most about this family, besides all the hugs and high-fives, is that every year is totally different. Some years the kids are allllll about play and water, sometimes they are quiet and shy. Sometimes we sing songs, and sometimes we laugh about everything. This year was a mix of all of it, and it was amazing. Daniel, now 9 is coming into his tween years with a confident shyness about him. Molly, 7, is always up for anything and loves to be photographed. And Charles, 2, is totally on the move, anxious to keep up with his big siblings while still loving to be held by mom and dad. And as always, Sarah and Steve embrace it all with kindness, patience, love, and joy. Seeing these guys is a highlight of my June each and every year, and I am so grateful to have their friendship and love, and the ability to capture the beauty of the moment year after year with this very special family. Here are this year’s favorites!
