Family Photos at Camp Ellis in Saco, Maine

These family photos at Camp Ellis in Saco, Maine were so dreamy — absolutely an ideal summer family session! I had been wanting to do a very beachy, summery lifestyle family session for a while. Jessica and Michael were totally game, along with their daughter, Sally! My aim was for them to just do their thing: find seashells, play in the water, and goof off, forgetting that I was there at all. They did all of that and more! Sally had an awesome time eating sand (didn’t matter how much she was discouraged — it was kind of hilarious), she looked at boats with dad, got chased around by mom. We found tons of crabs underneath the rocks. Sally splashed and threw wet sand in the air. It was the most perfect, messy, REAL session… and by the time we were done, Sally climbed into my arms and didn’t want to let go! <3
