just chillin’ on the boardwalk!

the day was typical washington area summer weather, hot and muggy! with a photographer’s friendly overcast sky, we tried to do as many pictures outside as possible, in between running back into the air-conditioned house to cool off! i did individual shots of all of the family, including extended family and lisa’s college friend. lots of people, but everyone was great! thanks again for such a wonderful time, ackermans!

we shot at baker park in frederick at a nice little spot near carroll creek. the lighting was really cool, lots of sunlight beaming through the trees. it is always great to have nice light and such a photogenic family to work with!

what a good lookin’ trio!

whoa dad! who said the shoulder thing was a good idea?

you guys are hilarious!!
