Summer of Simon | Baltimore Photographer

For the last few  years, I’ve embraced fall by saying ‘goodbye’ to summer, with a blog post, recapping our fun summer adventures. As a Baltimore photographer, I enjoy capturing the little moments, with my family. And while I didn’t take my camera out as much as I would’ve liked to this year, I did still managed to capture a lot of fun! (You’ll see a good mix of “real camera” images along with some iPhone images). Next year, I need to promise myself to take my camera out with me more!

During the cold, dark days of winter, it is always fun to go back and look at those posts and relive all of the fun we had; and this summer is no exception. We had a lot of fun this summer and I’m excited to finally share with you the Summer of Simon!

Summer of Simon | Baltimore Photographer

The summer started off great, when we became tourists in our own city! (Oh, and Simon caught the photo bug) Here we are at Federal Hill & Camden Yards… Fort Howard The Science Center Catching the photo bug at Gunpowder And the National Aquarium We went to Fort McHenry And picked flowersAnd learned that even though Simon is SO big, he still fits in tiny places… even if just barely.Simon got a wetsuit for his birthday and we spent a ton of time at the beach and in little swimming holes, throughout Maryland. He also finally got to turn forward facing in his carseat! We also took some selfies! We took many trips to the National Aquarium in Baltimore  We hung out with our pets He made music with DaddyHad ice cream with DaddyRode bikes and skateboards with DaddyDid I mention that our little man turned SIX?????Which means he can reach over the sink now. When did this happen? Simon took to wearing formal wear Somebody learned how to swim!And how to relax at the waterparkAunt Brea took Simon climbing… and as it turns out… he’s pretty stinking goodSimon *finally* met his dream of visiting the “sky building” And we had some fun at Pierce’s ParkAnd had more fun at the local fair We went camping Got a questionable haircutDid perhaps a wee bit too much bed jumping Hung out at the playground We went on great adventures Simon played creative director… And leaderAnd studied spiders But sadly, all good things must come to an end, and thus… Simon entered first grade!
