High School Senior Portraits | Class of 2011

Lowell, MA - High School Senior Portraits are so much fun to shoot! As a person who really appreciates art and photography, Rachel was an incredible subject. We started off with some simple, in-studio portraits and worked our way around the wonderful city of Lowell, MA. Occasionally for our location shoots, we sometimes give our version of a walking tour of downtown Lowell and hit up some of our favorite spots around town. Rachel and her mom are not from the area, but liked the urban and industrial feel in some of our images.

As for our style and philosophy, we really don’t change anything for High School Seniors. The traditional posing that we all remember from High School Senior Photography doesn’t really fit our style, so we just trust our vision and make every creative attempt to bring out character and personality in our portraits.

Fall in Love with this Engagement Session … we sure did!

Bolton, MA - The colorful New England Fall, there isn’t a more beautiful place for an engagement session. Jen + Pat will be married next Spring but we had the opportunity to spend a few hours with them at Nashoba Valley Winery in Bolton, MA.  These images are testament to the reasoning behind our engagement sessions, which is to break the ice of being photographed and to have fun at the same time.

These two originally had no interest in engagement portraits, but after going into detail about the process, they were soon on board and chose this fantastic location. And at first, they were admittedly nervous which is usually the case. The trick for any couple being photographed for their engagements is to pretend that they are the only two people in the universe at that particular time. I know it’s not that easy with a camera pointed at them, but if they can escape by looking into each others eyes, it is in effect a real moment and it will definitely prove so in the photos.

Jen + Pat make an incredibly cute couple and it was so great to get to know them. In the end, this session is going to set the cornerstones of their wedding photography. And as of right now it’s our first wedding of 2011, so we are so looking forward to it.

Congratulations to Jen + Pat!

6 Month Old Ella in the Studio

Lowell, MA – We met Ella awhile back for her 3 month old portraits and as you can see she got even cuter for her 6 month portraits. While photographing babies and families over the course of months and years we really get to see them grow. It’s always a little surprising when we see them again because we’ve been looking at their photos for months but they have always seem to have grown more than we expected. Also, we get to witness the big changes like sitting up, taking the first steps, and of course new expressions and mannerisms. Just one of the perks of the job we love

The Campobasso’s have been long time clients so we were very excited to hear the news they were expecting  and wanted us to capture their new addition.  This is the first of six sessions that will document the CampboBasso family for just over a year covering everything from their baby bump session to their first birthday as they have opted for our baby plan. The baby plan gives you multiple sessions at a discounted rate and a 10×10 book that incorporates all of  their favorites from each session.

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 [...]]]>

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

Lowell, MA – Who doesn’t love punk rock babies and sock monkey hats? OMG, Rosslyn is 6 months old!

“You won’t really know if you got it, so keep shooting”

Lowell, MA - This was one of the most high energy family sessions of last year. But what do you do when these sweet and adorable kids are so full of energy and can hardly stay still? In this case we got a lot of support from Mom and Dad (crucial to any family session), and we also took a ton of pictures. It was like shooting sports, where you follow the action and trust your auto focus. And of course we photographed the whole family together at the beginning of the session, when the kids were still warming up to the studio environment. After that we kind of just let them be themselves (which is our natural style anyway), as opposed to trying to pose them. The best part about a high energy session is that when you are looking back at your images your realize that you’ve captured their personalities perfectly.

Destination Massachusetts

Lowell, MA - Rachael+Ariel are planning their June wedding in Lenox, MA at the beautiful Seven Hills Inn. It’s actually a destination wedding for them and the majority of their guests because they are currently living in Florida. In fact they drove up only days before our engagement session. That’s a tough commute to get some wedding planning done, but we were delighted to hear that we’d have a chance to meet and have an engagement session before the wedding.

It’s pretty important for the couple and their photographers to get to know each other before the wedding. Engagement sessions are an opportunity to break the ice, have fun and make some pictures.

Letting them be themselves…

Lowell, MA – While working with young children it’s always our goal to create images that show off their personality. The best way to do this is to plan some time during the session that is devoted to just having fun and playing. This session with Lilee (around 18 mo. in these images) shows a child just having fun which allows for the wonderfully expressive moments. At 18 months there is very little posing going on anyway, as you can imagine, so it’s natural to  allow the child’s mood and energy level to dictate the pace of the session.

Our Family is Growing

Lowell, MA - We had the pleasure of photographing the Andrea and Keith’s wedding back in 2007.  As with a lot of our wedding clients, we usually seem to cross paths again once a new addition enters their family. In this case, one month old Madelynn was was star of this session.

We’d like to congratulate Andrea and Keith on bringing a beautiful baby girl into the world!
