    the {extended} cowa family

    This is my second time photographing this ENTIRE crew, we missed a year because of Covid- but so happy to get to see them all at once again. I’m sure you’ll recognize parts of the family because I’ve been photographing them for years.  Poor Annie 1. still hates me and 2. still scares the hell out of me (yes, she’s two but she will kill you) but grandma is her favorite person and got some smiles out of her some of the time. Which is way better than what I usually get from her (click the link above if you want to laugh at her fall shoot with me). The rest of the family still likes me- at least i think so- and even though the day wasn’t great weatherwise, we still had a great shoot! Can’t wait to do it again next year!

    katie & kevin get engaged!

    And I was there to capture it! In secret stealth ninja photographer mode in the beginning for the proposal (which is not easy on a very open beach with nowhere to hide) and then out in the open for some pictures of the newly engaged couple! Kevin did an awesome job and she said yes, obviously! Big thanks to Katie’s BFF Marisa for helping with all of the arrangements of getting me there and gifting this couple with this session! Congratulations to the happy couple and both families!!

    the cast family

    Even though I photograph them every year, I’m never allowed to post their pictures. Which kills me a little because they are all SO gorgeous (not to mention, sweet, smart, kind, funny, etc). But I did manage to get permission for posting one picture only and one is better than none, right!? So to brighten your day with beautiful people on a beach, here ya go.

    the dowd family

    Who would’ve thought a beach shoot in mid/late november would’ve been a good idea?! But it soooo was! We had a gorgeous evening (although as you can tell by the hair, it was more than a little windy!) with warm temperatures and a sunset over the ocean. Normally, the sun sets way over to the right side of the ocean when I’m in beach shoot season april/may-sept/october. I had no idea it set over the water in November but that was breathtaking. Little miss C is a beauty with a spitfire personality, I had so much fun photographing her! I think she loves the beach too!!

    the leon family

    I looked back of years worth of pictures of this family when I was trying to figure out how many years I’ve been photographing them (since 2008!!!!) and it was so fun watching them grow up over the years- the boys were such little babies when we started and now they’re all grown up and HUGE. I’m so thankful they call me back year after year! We shot at their summer home in Westhampton Beach and the joke this year was we were trying to get the shoot in before the rain (they really did call for rain). There was nothing but blue skies witn zero clouds the whole day. Well, we did get it in before the rain which never came.
