Where’s your engagement session going to be?

Mendon, MA – Here’s one of our favorite engagement sessions of the summer and you may recognize these two as we’ve just posted the sneak peek to their wedding. Heather and Dave chose Southwick’s Zoo in Mendon, MA for their engagement session and it was a very interesting choice. It was one of those “scattered showers” kind of spring day and without an opportunity for a rain date we crossed our fingers and toughed it out. We arrived a couple hours before closing and we had the whole place to ourselves, which was pretty special.

Choosing an interesting and meaningful location can make an engagement session that much more special. It helps to create a comfortable atmosphere and break the ice a bit between photographer and subject. Heather and Dave’s session is a prime example of this. These two are so sweet and cute around each other that it made it super easy to have a great time.

Ella’s 3 Month Old Portraits!

Lowell, MA – Ella was a doll to photograph during her three month old portraits. Even though it was her first time in the studio, Ella engaged the camera extremely well for this age, so you can imagine our excitement during the shoot. We sure do love happy babies who love the camera!!! Can’t wait to post her 6 month old portraits which turned out just as cute, if not cuter :)

Alaina | 2 years old | Family Portraits

In Studio Family Portraits

Lowell, MA – At 2 years old, Alaina was wonderful to photograph. Most sessions with children this age are super high paced. This was no different, but with those blue eyes and dimples, she made it incredibly easy to make these images. Here are some of our favorites from the session and I believe it’s also the introduction of the blue suitcase… kids love the blue suitcase!

Castle Hill on The Crane Estate

Ipswich, MA - Steven and Sevi originally wanted to have their engagement photos taken at the college where they met in Swampscott, MA. Unfortunately we had some issues with access to that particular property, so we decided to travel a few miles north to Castle Hill at the Crane Estate in Ipswich, MA. This was probably the best decision we made because it turned out perfectly. With it’s completely unique setting, The Crane Estate offers a variety of different opportunities for an engagement session. We’ve blogged about this property before with Carol and Paul’s wedding.

With no one else around on this beautiful June afternoon, the four of us walked around Castle Hill like we owned the place. As New England based wedding and portrait photographers, we dream of shooting on properties such as this with it’s history and grandeur. Given the opportunity, we could have photographed these two love birds for hours and hours, but luckily for them there is only so much light in a day! All in all we had a great time photographing this engagement session and can’t wait to make it back.

Congratulations to Sevi + Steve!!!
