I have known Katelyn since she was only four months old… and I really can’t believe how much she has grown. Just a few months ago, she looked like this:

And now, she is such a big girl!

We had a lovely session in Lincoln Park this past October… She had her butterfly wings on for Halloween:

Jenny, Mark, and Katelyn, I simply adore your family. Thank you for inviting me to document your lives as your little girl is growing! See you soon!

Another fabulous shoot at my new favorite spot, northerly island.  Ann and Tony are good friends of ours, and we just don’t get to see them often enough:

And here is their little cutie, Charlotte:

I loved this great open field

Charlotte seemed to enjoy it too.

One of the gorgeous paths in the park:

I think Charlotte looks just like her mom, wouldn’t you agree?

A few fun shots along the beach.

Charlotte stole her mom’s shoes and really enjoyed it.

A nice family portrait with the last bit of light left before the sun went down.

Thanks for a great session guys!! I can’t wait to see you again!

They met during college at Boston U, which is where their love for the Red Sox began. And now, several years later, they have their own little Red Sox minions  Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing the Gordon family, who are very good friends of ours. Their youngest, Luke has just turned one year old, and to celebrate this milestone they decided to have some family photos taken. Luke was lounging on the porch waiting for us to arrive. (Note: No underage drinking occurred during this photo shoot.)

Here’s the whole fam. Yay for baseball! (Even if it isn’t my team!)

Luke was a little wary of my camera at first, but I did end up catching a few smiles!

Such a handsome little guy!

And introducing his big sister Grace!

She is too cute!

Grace loves her little brother very much!

Grandma and Grandpa met up with us for a few more pictures at the end of the day:

Thanks Beverly & Matthew for a great session! Justin and I had a blast!

There are lots of upcoming posts brewing on the blog! It was a busy weekend full of shoots. Here are a few teasers from my weekend, more coming soon!

This past weekend I had the pleasure of meeting the O’Donnells for a family portrait session. My last session with them was actually  a couple of years ago, and the kids have grown sooo much! Here are few of my favorites:

We met at Northerly Island which has SO many great spots for photos. I love the yummy light in this one:

It didn’t take much to get Taylor to ham up for the camera. She is such a pretty girl:

And Logan is getting cuter every day:

I loved this shot of Kevin and Tammy!

This one is so darn cute!

Thanks for such a fun session guys!!

I love people. As corny as it sounds, it couldn’t be more true. I love that what I do allows me to meet and interact with people I may never have spoken to otherwise. I love seeing what makes people tick, watching how families interact and how they laugh together. Because in the midst of all the newness of the family I’m working with, I find myself reminded of my own home and family and remember that at the end of it we are all very much the same. Today I spent the morning with a beautiful family…

…who were gathered in celebration of Jack’s baptism… (You knew I had to sneak in a cute baby photo. I simply can’t help myself when one is so readily available!) But really, who could resist this amount of chub? Not me.

And I was assisted by my good friend Chris. Thanks Chris!

After a quick stop at home, I met up with some fellow photographers for a ‘trash the dress’ session, organized by the lovely and insanely talented Melissa Diep.

I had a great day filled with all sorts of people – clients, models, peers, friends, family- they all put a smile on my face keep me going!  Two very different shoots to culminate in one perfect day. More photos coming soon!
