It’s been almost 5 years since our last trip “just us”, so we definitely enjoyed getting away to Unico in Riveria Maya, just south of Cancun. The resort was beautiful (service and food were a tad disappointing) but we got in some good sun and relaxing, which you can’t beat!
Location Scouting | Maryland DMV Area
I had the opportunity to do a little location scouting on this beautiful spring day and convinced my not-so-camera loving kid to join me on an “adventure” with mom. We went to 3 different parks in the Maryland/Silver Spring/Kensington area (and he was rewarded with playground time at each) but we checked out some of the pros and cons of each park! Let me know if you want to try any of these for your next photo session!
Veirs Mill LOCAL Park
Pros:
Lots of scenic paths
Smaller dirt paths that go off to the side
Close to water/creek that runs beside it
Cute little weed flowers that sprout up in spring
Cons:
Lots of green- not as many flowering trees at this stage in spring (mid-April)
involves a little walking
Dewey Local Park
Pros:
Very unique mural walls
big new playground
Cons:
Crowded
Not as much green space
Has a big dog park (pro or con depending on who you ask! For my non-dog-loving kid, it was a con!)
Winding Creek Local Park
Pros:
2 cute bridges
close to water running through
Rosebud tree brings in some color
Cons:
Not as much space
More people/traffic/signs trash cans to work around
Romanoff - Fontaine Family | Lake Elkorn MD
I can’t believe I’ve been lucky enough to capture this family going on EIGHT years, as I met Oscar when he was just born! This sweet family is so much fun to catch up with each spring and get some great photos in some cool spots.
