Boston Couples Photographer | Outdoor Photography Session

It was so wonderful photographing this sweet and fun couple in Boston last fall. Believe it or not it was October but hardly any foliage had appeared at this time. We had a late fall if you remember, despite that freak snowstorm at Halloween and 70s in November. We started at the Public Gardens and then walked through the streets of historic Beacon Hill. This couple is staying in Boston for work and their studies but are originally from Australia.  I loved hearing their accents while we talked during their session.  Here are some favorites from their Outdoor Couples Photography Session in Boston…

Best Photography of 2011 | Boston Photographer MA

Happy New Year…its hard to believe 2012 is already here! 2011 was one of our busiest years yet and to showcase favorites from each session we decided to make best of photography collages. I had so much fun going through each session and picking out images, so many fun and exciting memories came flooding back. From expectant parents excited to meet their new baby(s), to watching all those new babies yawn and sleep during their sessions, sharing laughs and giggles with kids on the go, with a few bribes here and there to get them to cooperate, to enjoying warm sandy nights on the beach, playing in the leaves with families and capturing high school seniors in the beautiful light in the fall. Thank you everyone who I met and photographed in 2011 and I look forward to seeing you in 2012.

Enjoy!
