It’s Labor Day Monday! 🇺🇸⛵️

And that means the start of the Skipjack Triple Crown, kicking off with the wonderful Deal Island Skipjack Festival.

Today marks the 67th anniversary of this cherished Chesapeake Bay tradition, a celebration of our maritime heritage, the working watermen who shaped this region, and the skipjacks that continue to carry that history forward.

The Deal Island Skipjack Race is truly one of a kind, preserving a piece of Chesapeake history that simply can’t be found anywhere else.

Prayers for fair winds, tight sails, and, most importantly, the safety of every captain, crew member, volunteer, and visitor taking part in this special weekend.

Here’s to keeping the Chesapeake tradition alive. 💙🌊⛵️

Sincerely,

Happy Labor Day Weekend! 🇺🇸

I hope you’re enjoying a beautiful weekend and the last days of summer.

As we head into fall and spend more time exploring our state and national parks, please remember that we are visitors in the homes of our wildlife. 🦌🐴🌾

Slow down. Stay alert. Give wildlife space.

Young animals and yearlings can move unpredictably and dart into roadways in an instant, as these photographs remind us.

A few extra seconds behind the wheel can mean a lifetime for an animal.

Let’s do our part to protect the wildlife that makes these places so special. Please enjoy the journey, respect their space, and leave the wild a little wilder than we found it.

Sincerely,
-KL

Just a little beauty from the sea.

Seafoam drifts over the crown of a weathered whelk as the first light of morning spills across the shore.

A quiet little moment, written by the tide.

Cheers to a productive day ahead!

WHERE THE WILD THINGS GLOW

There are mornings when Assateague seems to belong to another world.

Warm sunrise spills across the Atlantic, and along the shore, the dune fences disappear into the golden light. TJ stands quietly in it all, his bright blonde mane glowing like it has caught the morning itself.

A little wild, a little free, and perfectly at home. -This is Assateague, at first light.

Happy first day of September!

A heartfelt thank you to my customers here in Sussex County, Delaware, for bringing home a framed canvas of the iconic Harbor of Refuge Light.

There’s something timeless about that lighthouse standing watch over the breakwater, especially beneath a soft pastel sky like this one.

I’m truly grateful that this photograph will now have a place in your family's home.

Cheers to a beautiful evening ahead! 🌅

Sincerely,

SHARE THE ROAD. 🐎🌅

Some mornings on Assateague feel almost magical. Fiery pink, orange, and purple skies, the marsh glowing beneath them, and our wild horses wandering freely across the island.

But with that beauty comes a responsibility. We are visitors here. They are home.

Two horses were recently stuck along Bayberry Drive; a reminder of just how quickly our roads can become dangerous for wildlife.

So slow down. Stay vigilant. Obey posted speed limits, and when horses are nearby, remember that 15 mph on the busy 611 causeway, and Bayberry Drive are often a more appropriate speed.

Whether you’re here to camp, fish, hunt, photograph, or simply escape, enjoy the scenery, give wildlife space, and leave no trace.

Take your time. Look up. Share the road. The herd depends on you. ❤️🐎

Cheers to a great week ahead!

A little chestnut reminder of just how precious Assateague is. 🧡🐴

These young foals are growing, learning, and finding their way in a wild world. When you visit, please slow down, stay vigilant, and give wildlife the space they need. Their safety depends on all of us.

Happy Sunday from sunny Assateague Island! ☀️🌊

This is the time of year we get really excited for some Eastern Shore Sailing. By Maryland and Virgina's historic skipjack fleet. Not many of these beautiful old ships are still floating. Come see the Triple Crown of Chesapeake Bay skipjack racing.

If you haven't seen a Skipjack race at least once, you owe it to yourself to check on out and soak in some Eastern Shore tradition.

You will have three opportunities coming up:

⛵ 2026 Maryland Skipjack Races

For anyone interested in photographing or watching the traditional Chesapeake Bay skipjacks, here are the major Maryland races coming up this fall.

• September 7 — Deal Island Skipjack Race
Deal Island, MD | 9:30 AM

• September 13 — Skipjack Heritage Days Race
Sandy Point State Park, Annapolis | 12:00 PM

• September 26 — Choptank Heritage Skipjack Race
Cambridge, MD | 11:00 AM

Deal Island – Sept. 7
The Labor Day race takes place on Tangier Sound and is one of the most traditional and visually impressive skipjack races of the season.

Sandy Point – Sept. 13
Skipjack racing returns to Sandy Point, offering a great opportunity to photograph the fleet along the Chesapeake near Annapolis.

Cambridge – Sept. 26
The Choptank Heritage Race is held off Cambridge, with Long Wharf Park providing an excellent land-based viewing and photography location.

These historic vessels are such an important part of Chesapeake Bay history, and watching them race under sail is something pretty special. I personally love these families and volunteers that help preserve history and sailing tradition. The local Deal Island- Chance Lions Club and all the events volunteers always treat me very well, with delicious breakfast sandwiches and softshell crabs for lunch. Shout out to the Whitelock Family and all the skipjack families and volunteers that will race this year, and that make these events possible. Soak in some true Chesapeake Bay culture.

Happy Friday Delmarva!

I am very excited to learn that this photograph was selected for The Lee Ann Wilkinson Group's local annual calendar!

I titled this image “October Reflections” because I captured it after the Point finally opened back up in the fall. When the Point does reopen, many of us locals love to hike around it and photograph the unique lines, angles, and views we have been missing all summer.

You just never know what you might see or find out there. Sometimes it is a stunning view, and sometimes it is something a little deeper and more meaningful.

I loved the way the clouds reflected in the still pool of water before me. But, as I often am, I was also deep in my own personal reflections.

Perhaps that is one of the things I love most about photography. Sometimes you set out to photograph a landscape and end up discovering something within yourself along the way.

Cheers from here! 🩵
