Senior Portrait Photography in Boston | Boston Public Library | Fenway Park
This senior portrait session in Boston was special to me on a few different levels. You see, Will is my younger cousin and I was a teenager when he was born, so it’s really weird that he is about to graduate from high school! Back when I had just gotten my first camera and began calling myself a photographer my aunt had hired me to take photos of Will for their annual Christmas card, for many years. It was always great looking through those photos year after year, not only showing how Will grew as a child, but they were great for showing my growth as a photographer. Once he outgrew holiday card modelling we had stopped, but we all knew that for Will’s senior photos we needed to get back into Boston and make some epic portraits.

I'll let the photos do the talking. Set in the enchanting ambiance of Southwick's Zoo, this October wedding exuded a fairytale charm, particularly within the magical Deer Forest.

Capturing Mary and Josh's enchanting wedding was an absolute joy, and I eagerly anticipate returning to Southwick's Zoo for future wedding or engagement sessions.
Senior Portrait Photography at Nahant Beach
There's an enchanting quality to a portrait session during golden hour. The setting sun bathes everything in a warm, soft, ethereal glow, making it the ideal time for natural light portraits. When my younger cousin, Angelina, asked me to be her senior portrait photographer for her, I couldn't help but reflect on how time had flown by. It felt like just yesterday she was crawling around at Grandma and Papa's, while I eagerly awaited the end of high school.

Alexis & AJ’s Wedding at Bear Brook State Park
The 2023 wedding season proved to be quite a wet affair, especially during the summer months. At one point, I started to wonder if I was a rain magnet, bringing showers to every wedding I photographed. By mid-season, I had abandoned checking the weather altogether; the stress just wasn't worth it. Yet, rain or shine, I've always found a silver lining in the form of stunning photos amidst downpours. Luckily for Alexis and AJ, they broke my rainy streak, becoming my first wedding of the year untouched by rain. Their mid-October celebration at Bear Brook State Park was nothing short of incredible.
