Extended Family Photoshoot on Cape Cod

Every June, Susan’s family spends a week together by the ocean, and this year they chose Cape Cod as their place to reconnect. We met at Craigville Beach on a calm, golden evening and took our time walking, laughing, and photographing all the different family combinations.

They were such a warm, easygoing group — relaxed, playful, and clearly very close. Some of my favorite moments were the grandparents with their grandkids, the siblings joking around, and all the candid in‑between moments that unfolded along the way.

If you’re planning a Cape Cod trip with your people and want to remember it in an honest, beautiful way, I’d love to photograph it for you
