This past July 4th weekend was such blast. We had the good fortune of spending it with family and friends which is rare seeing as most years at this time I’m working a wedding. Today I’m happy to feature a few photos that I took, as well as a few that my fiance/studio manager took.

The last few photos of Dad with baby on his shoulders were taken by her. She’s becoming quite the up-and-coming new photographer. These were all taken at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University, (which is actually where my fiance and I are planning our wedding ceremony) a great palce to go for a walk. It’s a true urban oasis.

Family portraits are always very rewarding because it’s so easy to see the value in it. Children grow up so fast and if you don’t photograph them now, you’ll never get today back. Having that said, if you’re interested in having family portraits done, we are having a Family Portrait Day at Borderland State Park. We are offering a reduced sitting fee of $79. Come join us at the park and get the family portrait that you’ve been hoping to get. Other than a $2 parking fee, admission to the park is free, so pack a picnic lunch and enjoy a fun family day. The park has a lot to offer:

Hikes for Tykes,
Boot Hikes and Bike Hikes,
Dragonflies and Damselflies,
Turtle watch,
and see the beautiful, July Wildflowers
