Another Year Another Fall
Here’s a glance at my fall season. Bright colors, fun leaves, shining faces!

Olivia's Senior Portrait Shoot
Olivia decided on Boston Common and the surrounding area for her session. I had a great time wandering on a beautiful Sunday (along with, apparently, everyone else in Boston!) with her and her mom. We explored into Beacon Hill as well, and finished our session back in the garden.
Olivia is smart, chill, and flexible with all our wandering.
An as you can see, she did a great job during her session. And shout out to all the parents, Olivia’s included, who help with my shoots. In this case, leaf sprinkling!

Aidan's Senior Session
Lately I’ve been introduced to some new locations to shoot and it’s been so fun! Aidan’s mom Julie recommended downtown Arlington and it was a great suggestion with a variety of spots - big rocks, architectural features to play with. Fun!
And because the world is so small, while Julie and I were chatting we discovered her brother graduation from Ohio U one year before I started there.
Here are some of my favorites from my time with Aidan;
Fiona's Senior Session
Working with Fiona, a tall, sharp, easy-going senior from Arlington, was a delight. Her mom suggested we check out Arlington Reservoir and I’m so glad we did!
As you can see, it made a lovely backdrop for a session with variety!
Maeve is Here!
I had the great pleasure of doing a maternity shoot with Veronica a while back. Well, now the wait has ended and Maeve is here! Healthy and content and, I can tell, extremely smart.
Senior Grad Session Round-Up!
It’s still summer, right? So this counts? Here are some shots from a few June senior grad sessions I had the pleasure of shooting. Click on the images to enlarge.
Ugo graduated from MIT:
Julia wrapped up her career at Tufts;
And Nameka ended her high school career and is heading to Clark University!
Ashley's Graduating!
Ashley’s mom Kristen brought confetti. I mean, what more do you need than a pumped graduate-to-be and some confetti? Nothing, I say!
So much fun!
Congratulations, Ashley!
Veronica (& Maeve too!)
You wouldn’t know to look at these photos that it was actually really cold out when I had this session with Veronica. She was such a trooper about it and I think she’s just adorable! I can’t wait to connect with her again once Maeve joins the world on the outside!
The G Family
The G family has expanded, so they gave me a call! I’m so glad they did. What a bright space and a bright family!
The W Fam!
I’ve been photographing the Ws for a few years now and this year we decided to do something a bit different. It was cold when we scheduled their shoot (not much warmer now!), and we thought inside would be best.
I asked them to think about things they like to do together, or things the kids enjoying doing, and I came over and shot a variety of posed and posed-candids. I think it’s a fun collection!
Fall Minis Round Two!
Obviously a ridiculously delayed post, but just the same!…
My fall season is winding down and it’s been a busy one. While I love spending time with my clients which my full length sessions allow, mini sessions are a great way to fit in a lot of people, which I like because I want everyone to have some nice family photos if they want them! And fall gets so booked up that it becomes tricky to accommodate everyone. Mini sessions help me do that.
These are some of my favorites from my second mini session event which took place in early November at Menotomy Rocks Park
Molly's Senior Session
When Molly’s mom got in touch to schedule her daughter’s senior session, I learned that Molly was the drum major in her high school marching band, and I knew we were kindred spirits.
Photographing Molly was so easy and fun. She’s super comfortable in front of the camera, and was up for any location. We started in downtown Stoneham, then shifted over to a nearby beach.
When I asked her if she found the session tolerable she said something to the effect of “What’s not to like? I got to pose for photos for an hour or two while someone complimented me!”
Sounds good to me, too!
Louis
Louis wanted to have some portraits done and got in touch. We went back and forth for a while talking about what he’s looking for and I felt challenged because he wanted something a little different than what I typically shoot. We had a great time working in the space we found.
Here are some of my favorites!
Proverb
I had an absolute blast shooting some beautiful spaces for Proverb over the last few months. I really enjoyed the challenge of shooting the spaces and the striking style was inspiring. I was taken aback by how much the environments came to life to me when either Darren, Proverb’s Managing Director and Creative Director, or Chris, Proverb’s Managing Partner and Director of Client Services, became part of an image. I shot first in some residential spaces, and then at their office in Boston.
I mean, if you’re not inspired by entering these spaces, I’m not sure what could inspire you!
Summer Wrap Up
How did I manage to let the entire summer go by without sharing with you? I truly have no idea. Literally, I am sitting here wondering how I didn’t show off a few of the families I met with before autumn hit (has it hit yet?).
Well, better late than never?
Here’s a small collection from a few sessions I had over the summer…
