For any of you living in the Pacific Northwest, man, what an amazing summer this has been, right?!  Beautiful sunshine filled days just ready to be filled with fun.  This summer made me think back to my own summers as a boy growing up in Bellingham.  My brothers and I used to ride our bikes all over the neighborhood, build forts in the forest behind our house, climb trees to survey “our land,” and even battle armies with our Army men.  Can’t say I did all that this summer, but close 😉

Recently, I had the chance to work the Schoembs’ family.  What struck me most (other than the fact that they are so amazingly photogenic!) was the affection between their kids.  It was so fun to see them relax in front of the camera and just settle into their own world of playing and chatting.  There really is something so special about making these summertime memories together as siblings.
