Joy at the beach – Wingaersheek Beach, Gloucester, MA

As the weather is slowly turning cooler, the beach takes on a slightly different feel – cold sand and, in this case, strangely warm water, fewer crowds, and an earlier sunset (perfect for the kiddos!). When Kate contacted me a couple months ago for a session, I was blown away. She was my younger sister’s friend throughout middle and junior high school; we hadn’t been in touch for years. She looks exactly how I remember her – beautiful, but now with a husband and two darling daughters, big sister H and baby J. We had an unusually warm September evening for our shoot on the beach. And the kids (and parents!) were awesome. Big sister H had on her “extra good listening ears,”  as the saying goes in my house. And baby J held her own, even on the cold sand.

Kate and Andy, thanks so much for a fantastic shoot. It was great seeing you again, Kate. Your family is beautiful! To view the complete gallery, click here (password protected; please contact either the family or me if interested).
