Dylan's First Time at the Beach!

So technically, we've been following little Dylan since his Mom's maternity shoot last October. We checked in with Dylan (in the flesh, of course) at his newborn shoot, again at 3 months, and now, we can't believe he's already 6 months old!

We spent Saturday, which turned out the be SUCH a gorgeous day, down at the beach with the Niderno family to fotograph ADORABLE baby Dylan at 6 months for our Miracle of Life program. (Oh my gosh, it seems like just yesterday that Dawn, Justin, and Patrick were in our studio for Dawn's maternity shoot!) We just love the Nidernos. They are such sweet people and are always laughing and smiling, and they definitely know how to have a great time with each other. We couldn't believe how big Dylan has gotten already, and how absolutely STUNNING his eyes are! (No really, you have to see what huge, reflective, shiny, and amazingly deep blue eyes he has.) Although we normally would have fotographed Dylan in our studio or at his home, the family thought that since they'd be at their beach house in Old Saybrook, CT and it's someplace they go every summer, that maybe we could take a drive down to fotograph the family on the beach. We totally thought that was the best idea. I mean, who wouldn't want not just stellar fotos of their family, but fotos taken at a beautiful place that has so many memories of such fun times?

The entire family was so much fun to fotograph. Patrick, Dylan's older brother, was a ball of energy the entire time we were there, but we definitely got to see what an amazing and sweet older brother he is, too. Between flying kites, splashing around in the water, and tossing around a football, there was never a dull moment with such an energetic and BEAUTIFUL family.

To the Niderno family; thank you guys so much for having us over. We had the best time, and we already can't wait to see you all again for Dylan's 9 month shoot!

And here are just a few shots from throughout the day that caught our eye...

Beautiful baby Dylan!

Thank you Paul and Krystal for sharing a fantabulous afternoon at the beach with us and capturing a very special moment in time.

You always go above and beyond and we had a blast hanging out - we're glad the rain held off! By the way, braving the freezing temperature of the water was well worth it to see the look on little Dylan's face. You both never cease to amaze us - your art will be cherished by our family for years to come!

Love - Dawn, Justin, Patrick and Dylan
