It’s no secret—summer is my favorite time of year. The sun stays out a little longer, the pace of life slows just enough to notice, and the ordinary days begin to feel extraordinary. Six years ago, I started A Daily Summer as a personal challenge—one that pushed me to capture the fleeting magic of this season with my own family in new and meaningful ways. What started as a creative outlet quickly became a tradition, and now, I’m inviting you to join in.
Whether you’re a seasoned photographer or just someone with a phone and a love for sunshine-soaked memories, this is your summer to see more, feel more, and photograph more.
Your Guide to Capturing Summer:
You don’t need the perfect camera or flawless light—just a little intention. Here’s how to dive into your own Daily Summer photo story:
1. Play and Follow Along
Keep the shot list handy (on your phone or printed) and use it as a fun scavenger hunt for everyday magic. Whether it’s a drippy popsicle, sandy toes, or an impromptu backyard concert, you’ll be amazed at how the simple stuff adds up to something unforgettable.
2. Get Inspired and Start Shooting
Look through the prompts and capture whatever catches your eye. Don’t overthink it—every photo tells a story, whether it’s perfectly composed or caught on the fly with your phone.
3. Share Your Summer Fun
Use the hashtag #adailysummer2025 and tag the prompt that inspired your photo—like #watermelon, #whitewine, or #bubbles—to join the community and connect with others chasing that same golden light.
4. Be Inspired
Follow along with the hashtag to see what others are capturing as part of their A Daily Summer. You might just find yourself trying a new recipe, heading to a new local park, or seeing your everyday life with fresh eyes.
Why These Moments Matter
Photographs have a way of turning seconds into stories—ones we come back to over and over again. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned as a mom of four and a professional photographer, it’s that you’ll never regret having too many photos. The giggles in the sprinkler. The golden hour glow on your child’s face. The glass of wine shared on the porch after bedtime. These are the memories that define our lives—not posed, not perfect, but completely real.
And when you’re ready to turn this season into a story that lasts a lifetime, I’m here to help.
Let’s Make This Summer Unforgettable
If you’ve been thinking about booking a family session, summer is the season for it. The light, the color, the carefree spirit—everything you love about this time of year comes through in your images. Whether we’re capturing your family at home, in the water, on vacation (yes, I travel for photoshoots!!), or wandering barefoot through a field, luxury photography means more than pretty pictures. It means creating art out of your real life.
So keep shooting, keep sharing, and when you’re ready to take it one step further, let’s make magic together.
Long Live Summer, and all the beauty it brings.
