Baby Photographer Worcester | In Home Baby Photography MA

What a beautiful baby boy this 5 week old boy was.  Even though his cat naps were quick, we were  able to capture an amazing variety of images of this blue-eyed baby boy.  His great grandmother was and I loved being able to capture them together…they were just sweet together as she talked to him and he gazed up at her.  He even held her hand tightly…loved being able to photograph them together!  I used a variety of studio and natural light during this session and was able to photograph him in his beautiful nursery and even got a little smile from him as he sat up ( with dad’s assistance ) on their couch at the very end of the session.  Here are some favorites from their Worcester Baby Photography Session in their home …

Weston Family Photographer | Boston Children’s Photographer

Who says studio portraits are boring?  Look at these fun and very adorable brother and sister during their recent studio photography session with their parents.  They had the best personalities and made the session go perfectly!  We started in the studio and then headed outdoors in the freshly fallen snow…this was just days before we were slammed with all that snow in January. I loved that mom and dad were adventurous in the snow and let their children play in it too.  Here are lots of favorites from their Framingham Photography Studio and Outdoor Family Photography Session in the snow in Metrowest Boston…

Worcester Baby Photographer | Framingham Photo Studio

I first met this little girl when she was just about 2 weeks old…fast forward 5 months and here she is, as cute as can be.  Mom brought in wearing the cutest little dress and then we tried one of my pink little tutu outfits.  She was so great to photograph and even though she wasn’t quite sitting up on her own we were able to capture a great variety of her.  Here are some favorites from her Worcester Baby Photography session in our Framingham Photo Studio …

What a fun and wonderful studio session it was with these two brothers.  I could feel the love they had for one another as they sat together during their session.  Big brother was so good with keeping little brother happy, smiling and close by as he tried to crawl away.  The little guy looked up to him and would just smile , it was so sweet.  Here are favorites from their boston children’s photography studio session…

Beautiful Newborn Photography Metrowest Boston | Worcester Newborn Photographer

Another sweet and beautiful baby girl came into the studio for her newborn photography session.  Her big brother who is two, thought he would be sly and out run my fast shutters and quick recycling studio lighting..nope. I gotcha little man. He was so handsome and even though the adorable moments with his new sister were fleeting, I was able to capture all them…and even smiles and giggles with mom and dad at the end of the studio session.   I love the variety we were able to document during their Framingham Newborn Studio Session.  I am in the midst of another newborn session boom.  Love it!  Congratulations to this family and all the new families in the area!  Here are some favorites from the Newborn and Family studio session…

Bear Turns One and Wins Gold | Medway Baby Photographer | Boston One Year Old Photography Session

I hope the title says its all. This famous Bear baby – his name is Barrett but his family call him Bear..how fitting, I  photographed January 2010 and was featured the cover of baystateparent magazine turned one this past January and also won Gold at a national parenting publications competition for cover photography and design.

I was away in Chicago this past week to surprise and celebrate one my sisters for her birthday when I got a message on my facebook business page from the Editor of baystateparent. I was so surprised and thrilled to have one of my images featured on the cover for their Gold winner at the Parenting Publications of America annual editorial and design competition. Bear was just about 2 weeks old when I photographed him in this adorable bear hat which was chosen to be on the cover for their Baby Gaga March 2010 baby issue.   He was so snuggly and sweet during his session ; this is still one of my favorite newborn photographs.  Those of you who have visited my studio will recognize this image that is hanging huge on my wall. :)

Fast forward to this January and Bear turned One!  Boy has he changed…he is such a big boy and almost looks like his big sister twin.  He is still as cute as can be.  Here is the cover from last March 2010 and here are some recent photographs from his in home session with his big sister Alex who is now 2.  A little birdie has told me that Bear and Alex will become big a brother and sister this summer.  Stay tuned to meet their new baby later this summer.

A big thank you to Lauren and Craig for allowing baystateparent to feature their son on the cover last year and a thank you to baysateparent ( Carrie and Paula) for choosing this image for their cover.  Also a big Congratulations to baystateparent magazine and their state for all 17 awards they won!  Well deserved awards!

Boston Newborn Photographer | Chestnut Hill Photographer

What a wonderful newborn studio session this was with two very adorable sisters.  They were just so precious and the big sis was just so loving to her new sister.  The new baby in their family was just 11 days old when she came in for her newborn portrait session in my Framingham studio loft.  Mom and dad were amazing and so patient as I captured their beautiful daughters together and waited ( not very long) for their new daughter to fall asleep as I photographed  all those favorite sleepy poses in some of the new baby props our studio now has.  Here are some favorites from their studio newborn and family session in Framingham…
