- Things were so busy from the end of the summer through the holidays so it's actually been nice having these snow days to play a little catch up (said like a person who is lucky enough not to have to do any shoveling!). It has also been very therapeutic to be reminded of warmer days filled with sunsh[...]

- What is cuter than a little baby girl in a tutu?? Answer: not a darn thing! We were supposed to be taking some holiday shots with her big brother but we just couldn't resist shooting a few in this darling tutu!
Wishing you all a very happy and prosperous 2015! :-)

- My friend, the very fashionable Marie of the Twin Living lifestyle blog, recently asked me to shoot some head shots for her. Portraits of a beautiful lady in the Boston Public Garden during the Fall? Yes, yes and yes!!! The late afternoon light was ideal, catching Marie's pretty hair just right. Eve[...]

- I had a lot of fun taking senior portraits with the beautiful Taylor! We shot around Andover, including the scenic Ward Reservation. The camera loved her gorgeous blue eyes! I'm so jealous of this recent trend of seniors being able to submit their own pictures for the yearbook. Back in my day we all[...]

- Originally, we planned to have this Eastery shoot outdoors with a gazebo and pretty spring flowers. Mother Nature wasn't down with that plan so we made a last minute decision to shoot inside where it was nice and dry. The twins are total professionals so it didn't knock them off their game at all.[...]

- 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 [...]

- I recently wrapped up my Portraiture class at NESOP with the talented Laura Pineda of Alternate Angles. We learned all kinds of great lighting and posing techniques to help take our portraits to the next level.
Throughout the course, NESOP would arrange for models to work with us in the stu[...]

- We recently learned low key lighting in the Portraiture class at NESOP. It is a lot darker and moodier than the bright and cheerful high key lighting we had set up previously. I was worried low key was going to be too shadowy and serious but along with the help of my dad, my awesome models and I w[...]

- 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 cou[...]

- I came across a photo over the holidays of a Christmas tree where the lights were in the shapes of little stars. It was such a magical effect and I knew I had to try to recreate it. I found an online tutorial on how to make your own filter to shape the bokeh (the pretty blurry background). I figu[...]

- 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 R[...]

- After Dana and I took some yoga portraits last spring we both knew we wanted to take more in the fall surrounded by beautiful foliage. The Middlesex Fells reservation, with the pops of color and golden autumn light, was a perfect backdrop for these yoga shots.
Dana is the ultimate champ, too, ag[...]
