Our family loves summer vacation!! But what family doesn't, right?! Every summer we create a list of fun summer activities. Here are highlights from our 2019 Mares Family Bucket-List.

been very fortunate to be a full time newborn and family lifestyle photographer since 2016. Last fall, I was surprised when KidFash Magazine approached me to add fashion photography to my services. It has been an unexpected and quite enjoyable ride so far!
My childhood dream was to be a photojournalist for National Geographic. Although I am self-employed, I do feel like I am living my dream. I am thrilled to take pictures of the families around Pittsburgh and travel with my own family on summer vacations.

If your family is anything like my family, your children (and you) don't want to give up all snacks and deserts.

However, with a little change in your lifestyle, you can adapt your taste buds! Here are four recipes my family loves. I've included a couple photographs of course. Let me know if you try any of these in the comments below! I hope to hear from you.
