Crystal Lake Mi// Extended Family Photos -

On a perfect evening in July, I had the honor of taking extended family photos at Crystal Lake, MI.

We met at the Beulah public beach across from their rental just a little bit before sunset.

This family has made a tradition of coming to Crystal Lake and they like to document it with photos!

After a couple of minutes of introductions and relaxing, we started with group photos.

I try to bring along some toys for the kids to keep after the session.
