Family portrait session (Kendra, Glenn, & B) – Wellesley, MA

Kendra and Glenn’s alarm clock has collected a lot of dust since baby B arrived about a year ago and decided to be a morning person. But that seems to matter little to them as they are so adoring and loving of every little inch of him. And they are about to understand that even with all of that love, their hearts will somehow grow even bigger as baby #2 is due this fall and baby B will become a big brother. But for now, he couldn’t be happier swinging, crawling, and pushing his little red Radio Flyer.

Kendra and Glenn, thank you for sharing your morning with me and congrats on making it through the first year! Wishing you lots of hand-holding, snuggling, and child-proofing success in the coming weeks/months as you prepare for your new arrival.

Extended family session (Tom, Michelle, N, & A) – Acton, MA

There is a look of pride and happiness on Tom’s face as I pull up in the driveway. It’s the face that ran so many class meetings back in high school, the face that was forever optimistic about whatever challenges would come our way – whether we were trying to convince the school administration to change something or planning the junior prom. But today, his face is happy for other reasons, grown-up reasons. His oldest son is sitting next to him on the porch steps while inside, his beautiful wife, Michelle, holds their newborn son. In addition, his dad is on the way to join us at the house and Michelle’s parents are also here, visiting all the way from the other side of the world. It’s such a special time in their lives and here they are surrounded by those who know and appreciate the beauty (and sometimes chaos) of it all.

Tom and Michelle, congratulations on another adorable son! My heart is full seeing you all together.

Newborn session (Danielle, Patrick, C, & R) – Wakefield, MA

With the arrival of baby R, her big sister seems to have fallen easily into her new role – she helped to brush her hair, helped to change a diaper, and seems poised to teach her a whole host of important things about the world. After all, she already knows how to climb up her ever-so-tall daddy and how to request mac and cheese for lunch. What else is there? Baby sister couldn’t be cuter and even had a couple of smiles for us. Such a beautiful and sweet family right in my neighborhood!

Congratulations again, Danielle and Patrick. Wishing you lots of sleep and snuggles in the coming months.

Newborn session (Megan, Brad, B, B, & H) – Winchester, MA

Words cannot describe the happiness that exists in this family with the arrival of baby H! With two big, adoring sisters and two of the most dedicated parents I know, he’s one lucky little guy. He slept through most of this session, being passed around from person to person and spot to spot, kissed and smooched, snuggled and squeezed.

Megan and Brad, congratulations on adding to your beautiful family! I cannot wait to get to know you, little H.

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

Did you know that a photo session can also be your work out for the day?! Big brother LOVED the openness of the field so much that all he wanted to do was run. And run. At one point his dad actually had to sprint after him as he had strayed a bit too far. No matter how far he ran, or how steep the climb, he just kept smiling as he ran all over the place (his dad, too). Little brother, not quite used the feel of grass under his toes, tried to keep up and did a decent job despite his fairly new walking skills and uneven ground. Their beautiful mama (in a gorgeous dress!) relished in her boys’ happy squeals as they were tossed in the air. This adorable family was so much fun!
