Family portrait session (Lynn, Greg, + crew) – Winchester, MA

With four kids in three different school situations, Lynn and Greg have their hands more than full this year. From high school to elementary school, they are juggling a lot of various schedules, negotiating many demands, and yet they are still smiling with one another.

Cheers to you, Lynn and Greg, for seeming to manage it all with grace, humor, and love!

Family portrait session (Tara, Joe, C, R, + A) – Concord, MA

Three girls = so much sister love. Sister snuggles, sister hugs, sister running, and sister giggles. These girls have seemed to thrive despite all of the challenging circumstances of the year. Kudos to Tara and Joe for keeping their smiles strong and their spirits bright. Such a joy to see you all again!

Family portrait session (Lynn, David, A + W) – Lexington, MA

Running, racing, rock climbing. These two go-getters were seemingly full of energy that came from a bottomless pit! They did take time to stop and check out the tall grass and… of course, say hello to the sheep. For some reason, when the sheep didn’t return the greeting, little W fell into pieces and oh, did my heart break. Those giant tears!

Lynn and David, it was so good to see you all again! Kudos to you both for finding the silver lining during the pandemic. This year, I’m especially grateful for your trust in capturing your your family!

Family portrait session (Amy, Aaron, C + J) – Rye, NH

Sometimes, glimmers of personality flash so fast but so strong, it’s undeniable. When she was younger, she insisted on building a sand castle as the tide was rolling in around her; sure she could find a way to make it stand. Now, almost 4 years later, she showed that same determination when faced with a massive boulder that she was convinced she could scale, running full speed straight at its face. And her little brother, who was still taking naps last I saw him, is showing similar tenacity in spirit and curious nature, skipping over the rocks on the pier with ease and fearlessness.

What a joy to be able to see you all again, Amy and Aaron! Your smiles in the midst of the wild year we’ve had bring me a slice of peace.
