When a family takes the leap to spend a couple of years abroad for work, with a newborn no less, you know they have a sense of adventure and are up for some fun!

This beautiful family came all the way from Israel to explore and live in Boston.  Our time in Gloucester was their first time at the beach here and the kids thoroughly enjoyed the freedom of running around, feeling the sand, and digging for shells and other treasures. The fresh sea air and sunshine were a gift!

We chatted a lot about the homesickness of having babies without your family around. It’s something I know well. Seeing them enjoy and treasure each other and have the gift of these photos to share with friends and family back home was such a joy for me! Full circle to give them something I never had!

I *love* their outfits, by the way!  Meytal really struggled to decide between a few outfits, and in the end, the pink that is reminiscent of seashells won the day!  The grays, linen, and other textures that we mixed in there are so complementary to the sand, rocks, and other beachy feels ☺️

After an evening of all the beauty that Gloucester, MA provides, the fun of connecting together and making memories, and a busy day that ends in the good tired leading to a night of deep rest, I know they have a treasure trove of memories. And I do, too.
