Beach Morning in the Life of the S Family

It’s wild to think that just a few weeks remain in the summer of 2020, one that we’ll never forget. We are so lucky to be able to live by the beach, so that even in the “Pandemic Summer,” we can still be outside, socially distance, and allow ourselves to enjoy time as a family. Our friends reached out and asked me to document a Saturday morning with them and their son, who just turned two. As August is, the weather looked iffy on this particular day, but we decided to take a chance. When I arrived at their house, I could hear their son babbling on the monitor and as soon as they got him out of his crib, he was ready to play, read, eat his breakfast, wander outside with his dad (and wave to the passing boats!), ride on a bike with his mom, watch the bulldozers clean up the beach, and splash in the waves. It’s been a summer to remember, one worth documenting.
