What an awesome afternoon!  What was supposed to b e a beach wedding turned out to be a great indoor ceremony in Peaky's after rain came through all that weekend.   I had a great time meeting Jonathan and Jamie and 25 of their friends that were in the wedding party.  See more of the wonderful photos and details here:

So happy to meet this new little princess coming in with her big sister whom I took newborn photos of two years ago.  Can't believe how much sister has grown and this sweet girl slept like a champ for me.

Had a great time meeting these kiddos and playing on the sand tonight!  They were so fun and full of life and completely filled with joy after having spent the last five days at the beach!  We finished up just minutes before some clouds and light drizzles came through but the oncoming threat left a pretty hue to the blue skies before sunset <3

This sweet itty bitty peanut came to see me at just 8 days new after being nearly three weeks early.  Her tiny delicate features were so sweet and I could have loved on her all day long!  Mama brought a social headband and butterfly set that she had to have pictures with so made sure to get those special shots for the family.

Such a fun session!  I loved her idea of wearing her wedding dress as a skirt and bringing a scarf for a top.  My maternity clients know how much I love playing "Project Runway" with them and fabrics laying around the studio so when she came armed with her own I was excited to try something new!!  It was a new spin on Trash the Wedding Dress Sessions I currently offer.  The sunset colors picked up the peach and cream tones in her dress so beautifully!  What a great time we had playing in the sand and in the water on Assateague located just fifteen minutes outside of Ocean City.

This gorgeous mama to be and new native to the shore was drop dead gorgeous in the teal blue gown she brought to wear for some of her photos.  When she stepped out of the car I was like wow, what a beautiful Mama, you could see the glow in her eyes!  Her daughter aged 5 and son aged 11 were excited to take part in the session and had a great time on the beach with me!

What a cool family!  I enjoyed meeting Ryan & Neely and their three children as we explored Assateague Beach together!  They made an evening of playing on the beach with their babes to wear them down some before our session together and it worked.  The kids were amazing and had a great time playing in the sand as we took photos together.  I got to know Mom and Dad some and found they own Mother's Cantina in Ocean City, a most awesome mexican food restaurant in Ocean City, MD.  If you happen to be in town, stop in and check out the place - great food, great service!!
