This day was a scorcher! We were expecting rain, which did happen earlier in the day but was followed by a sunny and humid 80+ degree day. Again we found ourselves at the Boston Public Gardens directly across from the Four Seasons Boston. It’s a beautiful venue with an ironically understated decor. The food was not understated though…. it was very flavorful and quite spectacular. The Emmanuel Church in Newbury St. was a bit dark which made for tricky exposures but all in all an amazingly beautiful church, great wedding and the photos came out great.

June 30, 2010Perfect Baby Photos
June 29, 2010Are you tired of perfect outdoor baby photos that almost look unreal? I hope not because I can’t get enough of it. I love the lighting, I love the background, I love that the kids love being outside. It’s a win win situation. How cute are these kids… no, seriously. They’re like little baby models or something. Gotta love ’em.

June 28, 2010Individual and Whole
June 23, 2010We’ve had a lot of portraits lately. It’s interesting because we don’t do much advertising at all… i.e. none. I have to give props to the Mom, she did a really good job in choosing the outfits for this photos session. I love how everyone is wearing their own color and still all of the colors go together. It shows them all as individuals but part of a bigger whole. I also love how all of the colors are brought together in the daughters dress. Good job Mom! I love doing family portraits, especially when the lighting is perfect, clothing works, backgroud rocks and the kids are smiling, kind of like this photo session!
Family First
June 22, 2010Our traveling studio takes us out to Spencer, MA for this post. I was delighted to photograph such a big group of people for a family photo. It can be challenging with lots of little kids but also really rewarding when you get a great shot. We did big groups that day, small groups, couples, individuals and if there were any animals… we would have photographed them too! This also reminds me of how special my job as photographer is. I get to be part of people’s wedding day, then photograph their babies, children and other important events in people’s lives; it’s a good gig. We had great weather and the babies were happy, what more can you ask for!

June 19, 2010I just wanted to give a shout out to myself and my fiance… if I may. Within 30 minutes of this post, I will be a married man. My heart just jumped as I wrote that! I love her so much… I found a beautiful, intelligent. strong, caring, open hearted woman. She’s a great partner and wonderful mother to our daughter. Here she is… Here we are! Yay for love and marriage!

June 16, 2010OMG, check out Polina our associate photographer! She photographed this couple’s engagement session recently in the Public Gardens and Beacon Hill area of Boston. We’ve been working with Polina for quite some time now and she’s doing wonderful work. She was able to capture the couple in such an intimate way and with so much tenderness. The photos are fresh, inspired and surprising.

Classical Music and Cocktails
June 15, 2010Welcome to East Boston, Piers Park to be exact! I photographed this family not too long ago. Michael (the Dad pictured) is an excellent musician and teacher at Zumix here in East Boston. He will be playing saxophone and/or flute for the cocktail hour at our wedding, along with 2 other musicians. Jessica (the Mom pictured) is an amazing classical singer. If you’re interested in hiring either of them for your wedding… you can reach Jessica at: jkcdiva {at} gmail {dot} com and check out Michael’s music here.
