Cape Cod Family Beach Photo Session - Destination Family Photographer

Last summer I flew out to Cape Cod to photograph family photos for a sweet boy’s first birthday. I grew up with Kris in our tiny Wisconsin town and we reconnected via Facebook after college and major life changes & moves. Kris now lives in Switzerland with her husband Mike and their one year old little boy! Her husband is from Boston and his parents live half the year in their Cape Cod home. Kris flew me out to document her little guy turning one while they were visiting in Cape Cod last August. Her parents also came to visit, and we did an extended family session at Quisset Harbor at sunset time. It helped me realize that I need more sunset beach sessions in my life and that I need to go back to explore more of Cape Cod!

Bring the Grandparents for a Group Photo!

I make sure to get photos of them by themselves too! Often, they have not been photographed together in ages.
