sisters

I am one of four girls, so this shoot with 3 sisters was very special to me. I was reminded during so many moments of the sweet bond that sisters share. The day was fall perfection, the location was exquisite, and we just had a lot of FUN. Hopefully you will enjoy these as much as I enjoyed capturing these special moments.

Dog Days of Summer

The past week has been a scorcher of a week. We have played at the beach some which has been great, but I have also found myself not that eager to get outside for a few days. Instead I have found myself 'playing with pictures'. I love living in a place with distinct seasons, and though I have long fought seasonality at different times, I find myself enjoying the pace of different months and seasons now. I look forward to fall, but am embracing even the days that are too warm to spend much time outside. It means more time to take care of the inside things. It means a quiet pace for a few days. I like that.

Tully Lake

This is a little late, but I wanted to just write a tiny bit about the highlight of my summer thusfar--camping at Tully Lake. I could not stop thinking 'it doesn't get any better than this'. The campground is pristine and quiet, the lake calm for kids to splash, and so very many little coves to explore in a canoe or kayak. We saw painted turtles and a huge snapper (in our campsite), heard owls and bullfrogs and were greeted in the evening with a full moon. We really needed the escape - even if it was just a mini escape. I am thinking a full week next year (as long as we can order up perfect weather again).
