About J. Castro: Our summer trip to Cape Cod

We just returned from our very first trip out to the Cape for a last summer fling before Addi starts school next week. It was a very last minute thing as we didn’t expect on going anywhere towards the end of summer. WE. HAD. A. BLAST.

I honestly can’t believe we hadn’t been to the cape sooner. We’ve always been beach snobs and always reserved beach visits for our annual trip to Hawaii. I have to confess, as a boy who grew up in Hawaii and suffers from a heavy case of beach snobbery (I really do. I even think California beaches stink), I fell in love with the Cape, head over heels.

Here’s a few pics from our AMAZING time and our last hurrah before the school year begins.

Hope you all had a wonderful summer. It’s almost time to put away the bathing suits and break out the sweaters. Bring it on Fall, bring it on.

Being born Hawaii and raised in San Diego, living in the northeast can be tough at times. I mean seriously… seasons? Totally overrated. At least once a year I go home to Hawaii to visit my family, eat some onolicious grinds (that’s pidgin for banging grub), and just spend some time with my wife and kids on the beach. This year we were fortunate enough to go twice! Once to celebrate my son’s first birthday with my family and the again to shoot May and Dominic’s wedding.

I was absolutely floored when they asked me to fly out to shoot their wedding. How could I say no to shooting a wedding in Hawaii, at a gorgeous venue, with two people I love? I’ve known May for well over 10 years and Dominic is one of my closest cousins. I’ve seen the love between these two grow every year, and every year I would ask them if they’re finally getting married. Well this was the year. Finally.
