Welcome Amelia- A Birth Story
I was lucky enough to meet these fun families for an extended family beach session on Emerald Isle here in North Carolina. One family flew in from California and another from Oregon! The brother that owns the beach house lives just a few hours away and hosts this meet-up every year so they can all get together!
There are seven cousins total and I know they’ll look back on these summers together with fond memories. My family used to vacation with our extended family in Ocean Isle, NC when I was a kid and I still have wonderful memories of it. In fact, when I arrived at their beach house and saw these stairs, I was reminded of a photo we had taken during one of our vacations together. Here’s my extended family photo below.
And here’s the photo I took of them on their beach house stairs!
Then it was time to head down to the beach!
Grandma surrounded by her seven grandchildren!
The cousin crew!
Three generations of women – Grandma, Mom, and daughter!
And we couldn’t forget mom with her grown babies!
I love that you can still see their aqua colored beach house behind them!
One photo with fourteen people all smiling?? GOLD!
Grandma wanted a photo documenting the fact that her oldest grandson was now officially taller than her!
There are always a few silly photos when you hire me…
Grandma wanted a few individual photos too and I must say, she was a hoot and really knew how to work the camera!
After finishing the shoot and walking back to the house chatting away, I noticed the beautiful moon and the fading colors from the night’s sunset and asked one of the moms to pose for a quick photo.
It was a blast photographing and getting to know these fun families! I love that they took an hour out of their week to document their time together as well as their current stages in life. These will be photos they will surely look back on with fond memories forever.
