The Great Ocean City Seagull Showdown: A Family Photo Session Gone Hilariously Wrong

When a seagull took a very personal dislike to a little girl’s blue dress during a family photo session, chaos (and laughter) ensued. Picture this: a serene Ocean City sunset, a twirling girl in a pastel dress, and suddenly—BAM—a seagull dive-bombs her dress like it’s its arch-nemesis! Ava screamed. Mom laughed. I, of course, snapped a few shots while laughing so hard I nearly dropped my camera. But guess what? The photos turned out amazing. Why? Because the best family moments aren't always posed—they’re the ones full of chaos, laughter, and the occasional seagull incident. Want a memorable family photo session? Let’s make it happen (seagull-free, I hope)!

“We came for beautiful family photos… we left with sandy toes, belly laughs, and a near-seagull attack over a rogue french fry. 😂 Dee somehow made magic out of our chaos—our toddler refused to wear shoes, my husband got soaked (his fault, 100%), and yet the photos look like we belong in a magazine. If you want stunning beach portraits and a photographer who embraces the madness, BOOK HER NOW!”
