Bonnie' Senior Session at Lars Anderson Park

in

Not too long ago I was driving from point A to point B, taking an unusual route for me, when I drove park Lars Anderson Park in Brookline. I took mental note of it because it had a lovely pond and some bridges and a gazebo.

Shortly after that, Bonnie’s mom got in touch about a senior session and wouldn’t you know, Lars Anderson Park was a convenient and approved location for her session!

The pond ended up being all cracked and dried up, and the gazebo was overtaken by wedding guests and also was rather unimpressive in person, but no matter! Bonnie and I made some cool photos together in unexpected spots of the park.

Owen's Government Center Senior Session

in

“Owen loves brutalist architecture!” my close friend since second grade, Lauren told me when we were talking about her son’s senior session.

“For real?” I thought, I guess someone has to love brutalist architecture! “Let’s meet at Boston City Hall then!”

And we did. Of course the entire session didn’t take place in the city hall plaza, but that was partially because a festival was happening smack dab in the middle. But we made do and created an awesome collection, I think!


Carissa

Carissa is a fan of animals, Marvel comics, and all things creative. We met at Boston Public Garden (a reoccurring location this season!) and had a great time chatting and making photos while her two lovely parents hung back and enjoyed watching their daughter have fun.

Weekend of Seniors!

in

Good sports!

To say my first weekend of October was busy would be an understatement. As busy and hectic as it was, it was also so much fun! Here are some senior photos I captured that weekend. Three seniors; Funmi, Jared and Jasmine, in downtown Boston, and a group session with Anissa, Patricia, Sofia and Sarah in Boston Public Garden and the Beacon Hill.

This was the first time I had a group of high school seniors together for a session and they seemed to have the best time together. And they were game when I asked them “Are you willing to lay down on these cobblestones?”

Ava's Senior Session

in ,

I have known Ava’s mom, Christina since the seventh grade and we still see each other monthly for dinner. To say it was fun to photograph the human Christina raised would be an understatement.

Ava and I had a delightful time wandering a small park in Beverly and then visiting a little beachy area to get a variety of shots. I think the dark, moody one is my favorite!

Amelia's Senior Session

in ,

(When you draft a blog entry in October and suddenly realize months later you never published it. Until now!) High school senior Amelia and I, along with her mom, wandered Boston Common and Beacon Hill for her session. The weather here in Boston has been so hit or miss, so an overcast day was appreciated in lieu of rain!


Lauren's Arlington Reservoir Senior Session

in ,

After recovering from the realization that Lauren is now a senior in high school and the child of a friend of mine from high school, (it’s not about you, Cydney!) we settled on a time and place and met up at Arlington Reservoir for a late afternoon session.

Lauren arrived with ideas, and we had a blast working together to find nice light and backdrops and poses that worked. And being a low-brass player (in high school, anyway) myself, I definitely appreciated their incorporation of their passion - music and writing!
