How I View Summer | Naperville Lifestyle Photographer

Another month…Another post…and this time it is about one of my favorite times of the year – SUMMER!. This month my fellow photographers and I explore summer and how we view this glorious time of the year.

Summer in Chicago

A while back I saw an image from Outdoor Nation that had a simple message “Think Outside…Forget The Box!”. This could not be more true and relevant to how the Memorable Jaunts family spends our summer. Summer starts as soon as the weather gets above 50deg here in the midwest – Out comes the tent, the hiking boots and away we go – exploring, investigating, taking on new challenges and spending time together as a family!
