You don’t usually get a concert when you take pictures. But when I shot this young man’s senior pictures last weekend I was treated to a private piano concert that ranged from Liszt to Journey as well as a walk to a lake where we spotted a crayfish type thing in the grass.
I’m sorry your gallery is so big but I just couldn’t settle on only 20. Good luck making your choices!

I’ve been taking pictures of the munchkins to put on a photo bag. Although I may live to regret this one – it is hardly a conventional smile – it is very much my daughter. She is an absolute ham and goes for the laugh. The other night she wanted me to lay down with her to help her fall asleep and she would stare deep into my eyes and then make this face. Successful in pulling a laugh out of me, she would throw her head back and laugh and laugh.

I’ll post a picture of the purse when it arrives.

This girl is so gorgeous. She has that perfect, clear skin of girlhood (and her freckles spell out “hi” on her nose), the most infectious smile imaginable and a laugh that breaks into a million pieces, each of which become a fairy.
Her mother booked a fairy shoot, and you’ll see the fairy image soon, but after we took her out of the costume we did a few casual shots and I simply don’t know how anyone could resist them, or her. Thanks for letting me take pictures of your beautiful girl; we’ll have to do it again soon, perhaps with fall leaves or when snows cover the world.
Oh, and Miss B. – your minions will be here with your tea shortly.

Meredith is my senior rep, who agreed to let me harass her with the camera repeatedly. Last time she played with the tilt-shift lens. This day we just missed the rain. It was spitting before we started, held off for about 90 minutes, then started to actually come down. And the mosquitoes were awful. Snap the shutter. Slap the bug. Snap the shutter. Slap the bug. One of these days I’ll make her actually go in a dirty pond like my poor bridal model.
She is a pleasure to take pictures of, always game to try anything no matter how absurd. Meanwhile, she’s just lucky she isn’t taller or she’d get sucked into the modeling world with all the attendant insanity.
Next time – 1940’s period clothing and an urban setting!

I am totally booked in July and August. The only exception I will make is for newborns (under 2 weeks) and squeezing those is going to be interesting. If you want a shoot and still want the feel of summer I recommend booking in September now because fall is going to book up fast.
This link will take you right to the session reservation page. Current available dates are listed and you can select your date when you reserve your session.

Josh and Joelle are getting married. You’ll see them here again, with the white dress and the champagne and the flowers. But right now they’re thinking more about their new house than the nitty-gritty details of planning a wedding so we did a very casual engagement session with flip flops and sunlight that was almost as beautiful as Joelle’s smile. But not quite. Thanks for the great session, I’ll see you again for your wedding!

Back in another lifetime before I had twins I was a middle and high school teacher. I’m still certified, actually. I taught at a little Catholic school in Bristol, CT where I got moved from one grade and subject to another so fast I taught 6th grade English one year, 8th grade the next, and then 9th grade history the year after that. I always taught Latin and then wherever there was a hole I filled in. I always loved “my” 6th graders from that English class though. They were just an incredible group of kids.
They are about to be seniors in high school.
This makes me feel old.
Look out for pictures from one of them later on – she’s a budding photographer, applying to art school for next year, and though she is up in Maine surfing right now we have plans to get together and shoot later in the summer.
Here’s another one. Isn’t she amazing? I think in this first shot she looks like Nimue, about to entice Merlin into falling in mad love with her right before she locks him up in a tree.
