June Vibes: Summer Chaos, Chill Studios & Capturing the Real You

June 2, 2025 Ginny Thomas

SUMMER IS HERE!


Anyone else blink and suddenly it’s June? 
Summer tends to throw structure out the window.  The kids are home, travel plans are in full swing, and most of the time nobody knows what day it is.

But here’s the thing: your story doesn’t pause just because life gets chaotic. And summer has this beautifully unfiltered energy that’s actually perfect for photography; if you know how to embrace it. 

Whether it’s a spontaneous weekday family session, a playful studio shoot (hello, AC!), or a quick refresh for your branding photos, there are so many creative ways to make it work. Yes, even when your schedule feels bananas.

WHAT I’VE BEEN UP TO:

Studio Personality Portraits

I've been LOVING in-studio sessions that bring out all the you-ness. Whether it’s a creative entrepreneur showing off their brand vibe or a kiddo rocking their signature smirk, the studio has become a space where personality shines (and no one melts in the heat) 

 Branding & Headshots

If it’s been a minute since you updated your profile pics or need images that finally feel aligned with your brand, let’s chat. We’ll skip the stiff poses and create something that looks like you, feels like you, and works for you.

Family Photos Without the Fuss

Not ready for full-on fall photo season? That’s okay. Summer sessions can be simple, fun, and quick. From backyard giggles to creek-side chaos, we’ll go with the flow and get images you’ll treasure forever (even if your toddler doesn’t stand still for a single second).

Ready to jump in?


Whether you want to refresh your brand, capture a fleeting family stage, or finally get that photo where everyone is smiling (or at least looking in the same direction), I’d love to help you make it happen….stress-free and totally fun.

Tropical storm got you down? Try a puzzle and wine. Trust me. One of my all time favorite (indoor) beach activities! 🍷

We may have only had 2 good beach days this year at OBX (thanks Hurricane Erin 😒...) but these smiles were worth it all! 🏄‍♂️

Say goodbye to the stiff smiles and awkward poses of school picture day. 📸 Personality Portraits are quick, fun, and let your child’s real personality shine.  Silly faces, sweet smiles, and all the little quirks that make them them.

I know it’s still August, but fall is definitely on its way.
Cooler temps, golden leaves, cozy layers, and that soft, glowy evening light? Yes please.

Fall is hands-down one of my favorite times for photos. Families are relaxed, the light is b
Summer blooms + golden light + the sweetest family = perfection 🌸☀️

The Gordon family picked the best time for their annual session in Kensington, MD. The gardens were showing off with gorgeous flowers, the kids were total pros (years of practice w
Not every photo is meant to be the most beautiful photo.  Sometimes it's to hold a memory, a moment in time, or a season you don't want to forget.  Don't let a bad hair day, self-conscious thoughts stop you from capturing that moment in time. 

EXAMP
🍂 Fall is coming… which means it’s time to get those cozy, colorful family photos on the calendar! My fall sessions are officially OPEN and now booking.

These spots always go fast, so if you’ve been thinking about updating your f
