Beach season is back! I know it’s still a little chilly for a swim, but the temps are warming and the beach is beautiful!

Every summer there are families that I really look forward to photographing, and the Brumfields are definitely one of those.

I’ve shot for them for 3 years now, and every session is such a blast! They love to have a documentary feel to their images, which I adore. It allows me to get some of the most creative shots for their family.

They are big time beach lovers, and have the cutest, most active, young kiddos. They sure keep me running from start to finish, but they keep me giggling too!

I love that mom and dad let their kids just be themselves, which means they have tons of fun, and their personalities shine.

I also love that their grandparents are included in each session, and that they are game for full on beach shenanigans too!

I mean, what better summer family memories could a kid have than frolicking freely on the beach with their entire family crew of several generations?!

These memories they will carry with them for a lifetime. They are memories that will help to keep them rooted in that family togetherness and acceptance.

It truly is an honor to be able to do what I do. And when it’s this much fun, it is an absolute joy too!
