Red, White & Brig: A Coastal Celebration of Summer, Community, and America’s 250th Anniversary in Brigantine
Copyright Kelly and Craig Photography 2026
There’s something special about summer in Brigantine.
Maybe it’s the bike rides to the beach before breakfast. The flags hanging from porches all summer long. The sound of kids running through sandy streets after a long beach day. Or maybe it’s the feeling that no matter how much changes in the world, some things here still feel timeless.
This summer, three local brands are coming together to celebrate exactly that.
Introducing Red, White & Brig — a coastal-inspired patriotic campaign created by Brigantine Living, Kelly & Craig Photography, and Artwork by Kelly & Craig.
Designed to honor America’s 250th anniversary in a way that feels authentic to the Jersey Shore, this campaign is not political. It’s patriotic. It’s about celebrating community, tradition, coastal living, and the moments that make summers in Brigantine unforgettable.
A Patriotic Coastal Summer in Brigantine
Red, White & Brig was inspired by the quiet kind of patriotism you feel walking through town during the summer season.
American flags moving in the ocean breeze.
Families gathering at the beach house.
Neighborhood cookouts.
Sunsets at the cove.
This campaign was created to capture that feeling and bring it to life across photography, local storytelling, and coastal-inspired artwork.
Whether you’re a year-round resident, a summer visitor, or someone who simply loves Brigantine beach life, this campaign was built with you in mind.

Brigantine Living: Celebrating the Community
No campaign about Brigantine would be complete without the community itself.
That’s where Brigantine Living comes in.
Brigantine Living has always focused on showcasing the people, businesses, events, and moments that make Brigantine special.
This summer, the community will become part of the Red, White & Brig story.
Residents and visitors are encouraged to share their own summer memories and patriotic coastal moments by tagging Brigantine Living throughout the season.
From beach days and bike rides to family traditions and sunset dinners, the goal is to celebrate what summer in Brigantine truly looks like through the eyes of the community.
Brigantine Living will feature community photos, local businesses, and photos that capture the spirit of the shore.
Why Red, White & Brig Matters
At its core, this campaign is about more than artwork, photography, or social media.
It’s about preserving a feeling.
A slower kind of summer.
A stronger sense of community.
The traditions that families come back for year after year.
As America approaches its 250th anniversary, Red, White & Brig is a reminder that patriotism does not have to be loud to be meaningful.
Sometimes it looks like a beach cruiser parked outside a shore house.
Sometimes it looks like family photos taken during golden hour.
Sometimes it looks like artwork hanging on the walls of a home filled with summer memories.
And sometimes it simply looks like Brigantine in the summertime.
