Jenny & her mom :: Fall Model Photo shoot

I met Jenny in 2010 when we worked together at Copley Place in Boston.  First impressions, she was sweet, kind, fun and overall I could tell a very good person with a good heart!  So I knew she grew up in a loving family with loving parents, how generous was it of Jenny, who works full-time to use her personal time for helping me build my portfolio.   She also brought along her beautiful mom, who's awesome.  I couldn't have asked for more, they were naturals in front of the camera and were really just enjoying "mother-daughter" so sweet.  Thank you so much for being my models and I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I love taking them of both of you.

"The love between a mother and her daughter is special. A mother takes her daughter under her wing and teaches her how to be a woman. In order to do this, you have to ask yourself what it means to be a woman of today. How do you balance care for others with your own quest for meaning and joy in life and how do you pass on these lessons to your daughter?"

Lee, Brooks & Lila :: Fall Session

So sad my fall family sessions are coming to an end for 2012.  I had the pleasure of meeting so many new families, truly an honor to work with everyone and thank you so much.

Meet the "W" family.  We started our photo shoot in my studio and headed outdoors-it must have been mid-70's, so nice out November in New England.  Lila, who is 7 months and very mobile.  Her mother wanted to capture pictures of her christening gown before she can no longer fit in-good idea!  Super adorable girl, look at her BIG beautiful eyes.  Hint-how awesome is her 'pink' bible?

Seriously, how adorable is Lila?  She makes me want to have another one already, especially a little girl.

This has got to be my most favourite!

 

Her big brother Brooks! 

What a good looking family!

{LOVE} this one too!  Thank you so much for a lovely day!

Sneak Peak :: Toronto Wedding

I'm heading off to bed, thought I would post up one of many favorite pictures.  This is my amazing cousin, words cannot express how happy I am for her, a new life as a wife and spending the rest of her life with the one she loves.  I am so blessed to have celebrated and to be honored to photograph her two-day special day (yippers, it was a two-day wedding)!  Love you so much girl! xo

This is her about to throw her wedding bouquet!  She looks so happy!

Keep warm and good night!

Sneak Peak :: A little elf in the studio

Today is really the perfect day for a Christmas/winter related photo shoot with all the flurries coming down.  Oh winter, I tread you every year but this year I promise to be a bit more outdoor, now that I have a 18 month old.

On to my post, do you remember Wesley at 6 months? He was in the studio and thanks to his mother (who is a great friend of mine) for allowing me to dress him half way with elf tights! 

Just a sample!

"R Family" Fall at Winfield Robbins Memorial Garden

Can you believe November is here?!  My goodness, where is time flying and 2013 just sounds too futuristic!  As the leaves are at the end of its changing - color phase, the weather in the mornings are starting to get a little chilly.  This past Sunday, I could of not ask for a beautiful, slightly warm and sunny morning for this family's photo shoot.

Lori mentioned is had been a couple of years since she's been to this park and she truly picked the perfect location!  Along with Lori were her husband and her adorable kids, Graham and Ellie aged 5 and 2y4m.  Graham got comfortable enough around me he started to lean and put his head on my shoulder, aww so sweet!

Found this quote: "In family life, love is the oil that eases friction, the cement that binds closer together, and the music that brings harmony."

 Okay, seriously, how cute are these two?!

 So sweet...

 In {LOVE} with this photo, their facial expressions...

 Thank you so much for asking me to take your family photos!

Families are about being goofy and funny.

Especially love these ones: Momma's Girl, Momma's Boys & Daddy's Little Girl

Maternity Session :: Natalie & Greg

Natalie and Greg are having their first baby (a boy) early winter.  We met up at Menotomy Rocks Parks and what a beautiful morning.  Congratulations on this exciting time as first time parents but a life experience as well.  You look absolutely stunning Natalie!

Found this, so suiting.
“My precious little baby I have loved you from the start
You are a tiny miracle
Laying closely to my heart
Each day I feel your presence
Each day you heart beats softly As only I could know
So I’ll keep this in a special place And remember each year through
Of this very special time in my life The moment I carried you…”
