Now that the crazy Fall photography season has come to a close, gifts have been given and holiday cards received, I am excited to share with you some of the great sessions that took place this past Fall. So, let’s kick this off and what better formula for excellent Fall family photos than a great organic farm in Newton, MA that not only featured a cornfield and pumpkin patch, but also a weeping willow by a pond, rolling fields, and beautiful Fall foliage!

My clients seriously make my job easy and fun! What a great time I had with these two adorable and gorgeous girls! They were go go go and had such fun at the farm! We headed off first to the cornfield to play some games.

We pulled some silly faces and chased each other…

…we found a tractor with HUGE wheels we could sit in…

…we picked some flowers and we had piggybacks…

…and of course, they were just generally and absolutely ADORABLE!

You can’t have Fall family photos in New England without featuring a red barn! Don’t you just adore these girls? Oh we giggled, and we hugged…and we may have kept the momentum going with some chocolate M&Ms. Luckily mom came armed and prepared with wipes to hide the evidence!

This entire family just exudes love and fun! That, and unmistakable style! If mom looks familiar to you, then you are correct super sleuths! This is business owner, Karen who was featured on the very first blog post of our relaunch. Karen owns and runs the wonderful Hanu Skincare which uses only organic ingredients. I absolutely love these products and my latest obsession is the French Green Clay Mask – you may have been the recipient of this as a gift this Christmas because I love it so much! I adore repeat clients and greatly treasure the trust given to me in capturing these special family memories. Thank you, Karen and Patrick for this trust, and thank you, girls, for what is to date my most energetic and fun family session.

Photography gift card, deliveries, exciting new product

I won’t tell you how many shopping days you have left till the big holidays, but I will say that if you don’t already have gifts planned, you might want to start thinking about that. If you’re anything like me, there are plenty of people on your list who are impossible to shop for; if they want something, they’ve already got it. These people make this time of year incredibly hard for the rest of us who wish to give them a thoughtful, yet personal gift. Well, I’m here to the rescue! Surprise that loved one with a gift certificate for timeless photography. Included in our holiday photography gift card offering for the bargain price of $200 are the following:

A pre-consultation to ensure all your wishes are captured during your session
1 hour on-location photography session
An ordering/reveal appointment
1 x 8×10 print (additional products are available for separate purchase)

Order online today and you will receive the following photography gift card in the mail to present to your lucky recipient:

It already feels like Christmas around here with all the deliveries I am making to my clients. It’s so much fun to wrap up your beautiful print products and then see your delighted faces as you open them.

I also wanted to take this opportunity to present to you an exciting new product I am carrying. I just LOVE this product (and judging from those lucky clients that have been able to see my sample, YOU will love it too!) So far, everyone who has seen this, wants it! Available sizes are 5×7 and 8×10 and this is perfect for a bookshelf or a desk.

I am looking forward to solving that holiday gift dilemma for you. Psssst – dads – mom would love the gift of photography. You’re welcome :).

Nashua North High School Senior Portraits

I have been on pins and needles, waiting to share these high school senior portraits with you. It was a lovely and extremely warm evening I met Conor and his family in Amherst, NH to take his high school senior portraits. We headed for the town center and straight for this retro gas station. I knew this would be the perfect spot to capture him; I am sure you will agree. This first image below was chosen for a large metal print that will be part of a 7 piece gallery, which incorporate images from this senior shoot, and images I captured for his dad’s recent wedding in Key West. I can’t wait to deliver that and see them hung!

This Model T truck actually runs! We had fun posing in and around it.

Conor adores his dogs, Tuukka (named of course for our beloved Bruins goalie) and Mila. We made sure we got a shot with them and the girls both cooperated and smiled for the camera.

How cool are these old petrol pumps?

Thanks Conor for a great afternoon and very best for your future! Dream big!
