Boston Baby Photographer | Sibling Newborn Photography Session | Holliston Photographer

What a fun session this was with a new big sister who was 2 yrs old and her new baby sister who was 2 months old!  They were so adorable together.   The older sister had such cute personality as you can see by her laughing and smiley expressions.  You just never know what a 2 year old is going to present during a photo session in the studio..I expect the unexpected and hope for the best. :)   This was just what I hoped for.  Mom and Dad were incredible and patient while we waited for their new baby girl to fall into her deep sleep. Once she was out it was time for all those beautiful new baby poses and trying on some newborn hats.  Here are some favorites from their Framingham Portrait Studio Newborn Session …

Boston Newborn Photographer | Newborn Photography

Another beautiful 2 week old came to the studio recently for her first photo shoot.  She slept like a baby ( which I loved)  and she gave us a few sleepy smiles.  You may remember this mom and dad from their maternity session a few posts below  Click Here to See .  I am so fortunate to be able to capture these  early moments of a new life and new families. Sessions like these remind me why I love my job so much. Here are some favorites…

Boston Maternity Photographer | Prenatal Portraits

What a beautiful time in your life when you are expecting your first chid. I love being able to capture the beginnings of a new family. This couple was so wonderful to photograph at the studio earlier this year. They were so relaxed and went along with any ideas that came to mind. The mom-to-be was glowing and beautiful. I am yet again, behind on blog posts as I just photographed their new daughter…stay tuned for favorites from her session. For now, here are favorites from the maternity session.

MA Portrait Studio | Children’s Photographer Boston | Mini Photo Sessions

Announcing Mini Theme Sessions… We’ve done these before but not for a few years. I don’t even think we had a blog the last time we had theme minis as I looked back in the archives

This is great for babies sitting on their own up to 6 year olds ( 6 months minimum age). Feel free to incorporate any of your own “attic” or personal props. Props will be geared for little boys and little girls changing them a bit to fit the child’s age. Paula will discuss clothing ideas that will work with the theme set once the session is booked.

Here is what was captured of Mr. Logan, 2.5 in about 20 minutes. Lots of fun and cute keepsakes of this little boy. Paula will be showing your images in color, black & white and even a few fun “antique” tone. To book your child’s mini session email Paula through her Contact page here. Please mention Paula’s Attic Minis when inquiring. These will be offered for a limited time.

PS Don’t forget to join our Facbook Fan page. :)

Grafton Senior Photographer | Senior Portraits MA | Fall Senior Session

I just loved this senior’s session! We started with the studio and then had to add another day on due to the rainy weather for her outdoor portion of the combo session…which worked out great with the warm fall colors that appeared. She was so easy to photograph and had great outfits to match the locations we used. Here are some favorites…

Boston Baby Photographer | Metrowest Boston Studio | 6 Month Old Photo Shoot

Look at this cutie! 6 months is one of my favorite ages in my studio to photograph. She was so smiley and fun to capture with my cameras. Mom brought her in with the cutest dress and hat too… it was just perfect for her cute smiles. She reminded of one those Gerber babies with those sweet expressions. I can’t wait to see her again this spring for an outdoor family session, she might even be on the go by then. Here are some favs…

Boston Baby Photographer | Framingham Photographer

Happy Holidays everyone! As the year comes to an end I wanted to share a session with a very special baby boy and his parents. Stay tuned for lots more sessions from the past fall.

Meet a miracle baby boy…James has been through a lot in his short life but you would never know it. He is the sweetest baby boy who is blessed with incredibly strong parents….even his cries were so sweet. We met at my Framingham studio loft for their session where Baby James cooed, smiled and even took a little “baby nap” under the lights. Here are some favorites from their session…

Baby Photographer Central Massachusetts | Shrewbury Photographer

I still can’t believe this little man is a big brother! I first met him for his first session when he was just 4 months old and have watched him grown over many fun sessions. Now he is 2.5 and a big brother to a very adorable little girl who was 7 weeks old during the time of her session. Revisiting a session from September ( yes I am very behind in blogging) in their home for her newborn session. A dream home to photograph in with nice windows and a gorgeous decor. He was so sweet with his new little sister leaning over to give her a kiss. She was so expensive with her big brown eyes; smiling, yawning and cooing at her parents. Here are some favorites from their session…
