The Rainsfords

For the second year in a row, I've had the wonderful honor of photographing the Rainsford family. Last year, we spent some time at Kettle Cove in Cape Elizabeth taking some pics along the rocky shore. This year, however, they decided on Fort Williams. This is by far, one of my favorite locations because it incorporates all things Maine - from shore line to beautiful tree-lined landscape to the lighthouse - it's just a beautiful spot! Here are just a few of the images I was able to capture of this lovely family...

Although a couple of the cousins were a bit camera shy last year, the moment I asked them to run along the beach - they were all smiles!

I'd like to think the smiles were all about my incredible ability to draw out their fun-loving, happy spirit; but, I think the real draw here was the lure of the gummy worm! Let's be real, who wouldn't smile for a gummy worm?? :)

These are just a couple fun moments I snapped between posed pics...

This family is so much fun!! Everytime I see them, I feel like I'm part of the clan. I can't wait to see them again next year. I'm still amazed at how much all the kids have grown! I hope you all enjoy the last few weeks of summer!
