Surprise! I actually went somewhere. I missed the entire fall season outside of New York (not that we had one) and it’s not quite beach weather any more, but it was still a nice trip.

Summer Photo Diary
Somehow it has become summer here again. I had just become used to crisp mornings, but today the temperature climbed past 80 and is forecast to be even warmer tomorrow.
I have no fall photos yet, so here are my snapshots from the last days of summer.

The Beach Weekend
Gone Fishing
Just some clouds and sunsets and the end of summer. Let’s hope for a beautifully balmy fall so we can all catch a few more sunsets.

Independence Day Weekend Photo Diary
A breezy, beachy weekend filled with food and sand. I always appreciate time to travel and spend outdoors during the summer. Only thing you have to worry about is the sunburn. I’m out of my favorite Neutrogena Dry-Touch, but a while ago I got a sample of Supergoop’s mineral sunscreen in a gift bag and it worked well for me.
I had a serious red, white and blue theme going on… so much that during the day I even wore pink lipstick instead of my usual red. For a lot of occasions I do like pink more than red during the summer. Pink always seems more fresh and modern to me on a hot summer day.
Hope you enjoy all of my photos!

Beach Trip Photo Diary
Hope your June is off to a great start! It’s officially wedding season (and this year it’ll be a busy one for me) but I’m trying to take some time for myself, too. Here are a few snapshots from a recent weekend.

Beach Weekend
Dear Mia,
I hope you’re having a fantastic summer! The past few days have been very hot, and today was exceptionally rainy. It’s been very nice lately, though, so I can’t complain.
Summer is supposed to be a time for a bit of relaxation, but it seems as if there’s always so much to do. Run here, run there… I’m consciously trying to plan the next few months so that I’m not even more worn out by the end of September. I think I need the rest.
The next few photos are from a beach trip. And may or may not include a puppy.

Rainy Beach Weekend Getaway Photo Diary
Dear Lydia,
What to do on a rainy beach weekend getaway? Grab a juice, stay inside and if it looks like it’s clearing up get ready to go antiquing!
And brunch. Of course….
Independence Day Weekend Photo Diary
Dear Laura,
I hope you had a nice weekend! Usually I leave the city for other pastures, this year a tiny beach town.
I wore my crazy maxi dress on July 4th because the pattern actually reminds me of fireworks. What do you think? Festive? I usually wear blue and white on Independence Day along with my brightest red lipstick. It was both hot and extremely windy on the 4th, so this is my only halfway decent photo. My hair is blowing around like crazy!
I carried my 5D around a lot over the weekend, so I took a ton of photos. Lately I haven’t been taking so many (or tagging my camera along) and I think I may have actually been suffering from withdrawal. Need to remember to take more photos! …
Tiny Beach Town Photo Diary | Coastal Lifestyle
Dear Mia,
You may (of course) recognize this photo as one lately from Instagram that’s been put through the A Beautiful Mess app. Among the great benefits of the coast are the sunsets… and the storm clouds to keep them interesting. This one is straight out of the Camera+ app. The ability to set exposure is such an important part of iPhoneography for me. Keep reading for more (non-Instagrammed) photos from my weekend! …
