In Home Newborn Photography | Worcester Photographer | Newborn Photographer MA

This little girl was so sweet and I just love her wide-eyed expressions. It was so nice to meet that little baby that was growing in her mommy’s tummy for their in home newborn session. Here is a link to their in studio maternity session Even big sister joined in for some portraits. I love including all members of the family in my sessions. We used a natural setting in their home using my portable studio lighting and perfect natural light coming in from their windows. Mom and dad were so laid back during the session, which I know can be hard when you are sleep deprived. Here are some favorites from their in home newborn session…

Professional Photographers of America International Print Competition Awards

Very exciting news here at Paula Swift Photography!  I recently found out 2 of my images were accepted and awarded at the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) International Photographic Competition.  ”Roots and Wings” 9was selected to be in the PPA’s Loan Collection where it will travel around the country on display with other Loan prints. This is what PPA and its members consider “the best of the best”. “The Journey”  was selected into the General Collection where it will be on display at the annual convention next January in Texas. Both of these prints won big in 2009 at our state PPAM convention and then were awarded seals at the regional level PPANE last fall. So I entered them at the big International Competition and was so surprised one of them went Loan!  Did I mention this was my first time entering PPA’s competition???  Thank you for letting me share this amazing news with you. Stay tuned for many featured sessions to be blogged soon!

Boston Newborn Photographer | Outdoor Newborn Session | Belmont Baby Photographer

Another one of my little friends became a big sister. I know my posts are getting pretty similar now with all these new babies and big sisters and brothers I have been photographing. There must of been something in the Boston water 9 months ago. :) I photographed this little girl a few times for her mother’s unique and fun children’s clothing company called My Little Pakora . She has just the sweetest personality and I was so proud to see her become a big sister. It was a very warm day out so I was able to take advantage of that and their beautiful backyard and their precious 11 day old baby girl was just perfect. I just love new babies outdoors…the ivy they had was a perfect backdrop! I also set my portable newborn studio in their living room so when their new baby girl was ready, we took some indoor studio shots too. Here are many favorites from their Boston Outdoor Newborn and In Home Session …

Commercial Family Shoot | Chestnut Hill Photographer

What a fun photo shoot this was with a mom and her children. The mom is the founder and CEO of a children’s shoes company and they needed a nice fun portrait of her with her children for their stores. She was up for anything …even climbed up their swingset and slid down the slide for a shots. I love these type of sessions where everyone involved is relaxed during the session which allows me to capture beautiful natural portraits. Her son was such a sweetheart and picked a flower from their garden ( oops) to give to me when I was leaving. Here are some favorites from their Chestnut Hill Outdoor Family Photography Session …

15 days old | Mansfield MA Photographer | Newborn Photography

Baby Bono has arrived….the nickname mom and dad gave him when he was still in mom’s tummy. I met this couple a few months back in studio for their maternity session. A very sweet boy who was giving his very patient mom and dad a hard time during his shoot…but you would never know it in these portraits. He looks so peaceful and sleepy…it took sometime to get these portraits…but well worth it. Congratulations on your beautiful son!

I was contacted by a reporter located in Ohio recently to submit some of my work to be featured in an article about the Best Family Photographers in Boston with other photographers in my area. Pretty exciting to be on the other end of a feature story. I am more accustomed to being the photographer who shoots stories like these from my newspaper days. Here is a link to the Associated Content story that went live this morning. Best Family Photographers in Boston Link
