SALLY SWATLAND Memories of SummerSally Swatland was born in 1946 in Washington, DC and moved to Greenwich, Connecticut when she was seven. Her father was a successful attorney, which allowed her family to spend long periods in the countryside with many vacations at various seaside locations throughout the United States. She shared a passion with her family for beaches, sunshine, and fresh air. Most summer days were spent at the beach playing in tidal pools, chasing minnows, collecting shells and exploring. There was a significant amount of bribery that went on between Sally and her children so that they would co-operate in what she now calls her 'beach dress up photo archives'. The children knew it was a way to acquire further summer treats and gain extra benefits; the children knew how to gain favors - it was all quite amusing to Sally. Her beach photo sessions would always draw a crowd, especially the young children, which allowed her access to even more models.
