Happy summer friends! How is this year more than halfway gone? I feel like I'm perpetually behind on blogging this year, so get ready for a steady stream of gorgeous families coming your way! First off is this family filled with some of my absolute favorite people. I know I say this a lot (because I truly have the BEST clients) but the love with these three humans and their fur babies just gives me all the feels. The way dad looks at mom, and mom at her son, and them all at each other....well....words are not needed.

We were so blessed with the most perfect evening at my favorite beach, with gentle breezes (oh how I love the movement it gives to hair and dresses), warm light, and gentle, lapping waves. Every time I photograph at the beach, it just seems to get better and better. There is just something about the sand and sea that just soothes my soul and looks amazing in photos to boot. As an Orange County family photographer, these kinds of sessions are just special to me.

Without further ado, please enjoy the love of the M family!
