Cousin Camp

Posted by on Jul 7, 2013 in Blog, Photography, Portrait |

I’ve lived far away from my extended family most of my life, so it was a huge treat to spend time with them at the first annual “Cousin Camp.” All the girls on my Mom’s side of the family that could come gathered at my grandma’s cabin for a weekend of crafts, games, and hanging out.  Some of the girls I got to spend time with I hadn’t seen since they were babies, and some were little enough that I’d never met them before!  I was so glad I brought my camera to capture these special memories.

And, though technically not cousins, they’re still family–Grandma’s dog Rascal and Aunt Melanie’s dog, Toto:
