the mcca family
A fantastic family of six (who also happen to live around the block from me) who were not only first timers to bsquared, but first timers to any professional family photography. After some initial nervousness that lasted about 5 seconds we had a great time. I loved getting to know the kids and finding out their interests (especially the oldest who is very interested in photography!) and seeing them relax and have fun too. Dad bought a bsquared gift card for his wife, and here are the end results:

the boch family
A longtime friend and her family who I’ve photographed a few times in the past (and who’s youngest was Timmy’s communion partner down the aisle) chose a beach session this year. We really lucked out with the weather and a great time was had by all. Well, maybe except Dad who was missing a football game. Or maybe it was a baseball game.

the conl family (a ‘be together’ session)
Not going to lie, this session was quite the challenge with 19 people- including 10 kids the oldest of who was 9 years old, and the youngest 9 months old. I needed a bed and and an IV of wine when we were done. On the questionnaire I send out with the welcome packet, the comment was “rest up!” No kidding. But, all the families were great and fun (and loved the colors they chose) and I loved seeing all the cousins interact with each other. We shot at Sun & Surf where they have a cabana at almost the end of the summer.
The whole gang!
Mom & Dad with their children & spouses.
With all the grandchildren.










A few dreamy ones…
Finally made it down to the ocean with the crew.

the rudi family
An extremely windy day on the beach for this session, with a fun extended family that I’ve photographed several times over the last few years. I love that grandma and grandpa always take part in the yearly session! Every session with this group is memorable, but it used to be because the day of or the day after the session one (or sometimes both) of the girls got sick. We were lucky that they showed no sign of illness this year and we had a great (but windy) session!

the cast family
I’ve lost count how many times I’ve photographed this amazing family, but you can see some past sessions here (last year’s session was posted exactly one year ago today- how funny!!) and here. It’s always the beach at the end of the summer, always the white (although I try every year to get some color on them!!!), and always filled with so much love, hugs and fun (even I get hugs!). And tans.








How YOU doin?






The kids specifically requested this shot, attacking mom and dad. How could I say no?

Till next year!
