Every year, around Christmas in July, I do the same thing. I start planning, order the holiday backdrop, call my friends with the holiday truck, and open my fall calendar. It always feels a little funny because we're still in the middle of summer. The pool is still open, the beach bag is by the [...]
Pup Portrait Pop-Up | Saturday, October 17th Because They're Family Too. I've heard it so many times over the years. "I wish we could include the dog..." "He'd never sit still." "She's too crazy."

The way the kids run barefoot through the grass while we tell ourselves we’ll always remember this version of them. But then suddenly, the beach [...]
