the appleton’s


i met up with the appleton’s in stone harbor, nj for a family shoot….6 adults, 5 kids….one of the hottest days of summer, but everyone was in great spirits!


cutie pie cousins…


stella, rockin’ the sunglasses…


sand-in-the-face brady…



ava….love the face…


ellie, who happens to be an awesome swimmer and gave me some pointers on technique!



no one got a picture when it was my turn next…


grandkids…(stella placed herself right in the back, hah)


i loved watching ava’s intensity when flying the kite…


contest to see who can throw a kid higher… i think randy wins with his toss of brady…


i love brady’s expression!


hot summer day, lots of playing.. you gotta refuel…


with blueberries, milk and mac ‘n cheese…




i often caught rory making this ridiculously happy expression…contagious…


sisters…


rory walked over to the ocean and was looking out, then all of a sudden she starts doing this dance to the ocean– it was ridiculously cute!


i had such a great time photographing the appleton’s and i’m honored to have had the privilege to capture an afternoon of their family vacation…
