Ending the summer with a bang wasn’t hard for me when it ended with a Long Beach Island photo shoot with the Kuser family. I knew I would love Tracy from the first time we spoke over the phone but I didn’t expect to feel as though I could have stayed for hours after our shoot just hanging out like one of the family. Tracy & Brian’s two girls Mikala and Gemma were the exact same ages as my own two daughters so playing with them felt just like being home.

We started our shoot at the Barnegat Lighthouse which never ceases to amaze me with the gorgeous backdrop and sparkling water all around! After we finished our walk through the lighthouse park we headed to the beach grounds in Barnegat on the street where they were staying. On the sprawling white sandy beach was a bright red boat and three huge red lifeguard chairs. It was so stunning against the blue blue sky it was truly like a dream. Our time on the beach was filled to the brim with laughter and it was truly one of the greatest sessions of the summer. I am so thankful to have met the Kuser family and to have been introduced to one of their favorite beaches in Long Beach Island.  Thank you Tracy & Brian for choosing me!
