October at Endicott Park

rebeccamurrayphoto — Sat, 08 Nov 2014 16:06:30 +0000

I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family again at Endicott Park on yet another picturesque autumn day. As always, there was a lot of energy and even more laughter!

I love the Fall because it means I get to spend my weekends in pretty outdoor locations with awesome families capturing so much joy-what is better than that!

Twins’ Halloween Hike at Broadmoor

rebeccamurrayphoto — Sat, 01 Nov 2014 14:32:52 +0000

I have had the pleasure of taking pictures of Ben & Lily for several years but this shoot melted my heart. Without much prompting they created their own sweet poses, holding hands and hugging with the gorgeous fall color in the background at the Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary. I didn’t realize there was this great natural beauty in Natick-or so much of it! The kids were such good sports as we accidentally took them on an extended hike…

The twins even champed out a lot of the walk in their costumes, much to the delight of the other hikers and leaf peepers. Too cute! Hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!

Fall Family Photos at Larz Anderson Park

Last time I visited Larz Anderson Park, the school house was under repairs so I was very excited when I arrived for this shoot and saw the fixed up adorable little red school house-the perfect backdrop for Fall family photos! It was such a beautiful early Fall day, still warm enough to comfortably shoot outside but with the benefit of pretty pops of color in the trees.

We had a lot of fun playing in the leaves with Avi and checking out the gigantic Koi! Baby Mira did a great job for her first family shoot too, her big smiles were contagious. I can’t wait for our next shoot

Garden in the Woods

We always seem to pick the hottest days for Ben & Lily’s birthday shoots, but this year we got to take advantage of the cool shade at the beautiful Garden in the Woods in Framingham. It was a great location where the kids could explore and have fun. The twins especially liked looking for frogs and turtles in the lily pond and running through the kid sized tunnel in the family activity area, while I was a big fan of the soft woodsy light. Plus, who doesn’t like a photo shoot that ends in gelato! Hope next year’s shoot is as cool and delicious

One Year Blogiversary

rebeccamurrayphoto — Sun, 06 Apr 2014 14:59:18 +0000

It’s hard to believe a year ago today I created my first Blog post!

In that time I have had the pleasure of working with many great families and adorable children while traveling to some gorgeous locations and planning different shoots. Most importantly, with every shoot I learned something new. I thought it would be fun to celebrate with a delicious Georgetown Cupcake and revisit some of the images I posted over the year.

I’m already looking forward to my 2nd Blogiversary to see what adventures I will capture in the next year! If you want to be a part of them, let me know :-)

Studio Fun!

rebeccamurrayphoto — Fri, 07 Mar 2014 01:45:10 +0000

I am currently taking a portraiture class at NESOP with my father where we are learning different lighting techniques in the studio. The Snow Family was kind enough to help us practice our high key lighting set-up.

We had a lot of fun with fans, props, tunes and even a little dancing. I couldn’t resist jumping into a shot or two :-)

I’ll have access to the awesome studios at NESOP for a few more weeks so if you want in on the fun let me know!

Happy New Year!

What better way to kick off 2014 than with an adorable new baby! Miss Ruby was such a natural in front of the camera and took all of the outfit and backdrop changes in stride.

Her big brother was so sweet with her as well. How cute is this shot of them sharing a snooze!

Working with little Ruby and her family was such a dream, even their dog was photogenic!

Here’s hoping everyone has a happy and healthy 2014 and that all my shoots this year go this smoothly

Happy Birthday Grace

rebeccamurrayphoto — Fri, 22 Nov 2013 00:06:27 +0000

It is crazy to think little Grace is already one! Mom Julie asked if I would shoot Grace’s First Birthday Party and I was more than happy to do so. I enjoy shooting Grace because her joy is infectious. I took many pictures at her party and I swear she was smiling or laughing in almost every shot! It is hard not to smile along with her.

While I do love shooting portraits where you can control the lighting and poses and rework shots when things aren’t quite right, there is something magical about candid shots. They may not end up being the cleanest images but catching sweet moments like cousins sharing a laugh or a grandfather helping with a bottle are better to me than anything posed and perfected in the studio.

Happy First Birthday Grace!

Endicott Park Fall Family Shoot

rebeccamurrayphoto — Tue, 22 Oct 2013 22:33:58 +0000

I can’t say enough how lucky I am to work with so many awesome families and beautiful locations. This shoot was the perfect combination of the two! When mom Leah told me she was interested in doing a fall family shoot at the park nearby their house I was on board. I figured I would get some cute shots of the kids swinging, sliding and monkeying around on a jungle gym of some kind. But when we arrived at the park and I saw that it was an autumn wonderland of bright foliage, a little pond reflecting said foliage and a picturesque barn with a horse and some sheep I did a little happy dance!

Everyone had such a great time playing in the leaves…

Their joy certainly made for some fantastic photo opportunities. It’s such a shame Fall doesn’t last just a little longer!
