Class of 2011's Kayla

Along with a few indoor images,

Kayla decided on Bridge Park for her outdoor session.

For backdrops and props we had the bridge, of course

the swing set poles

and the many trees that the park has to offer.

Wedding and Bride & Groom on the beach

Saturday morning took me to Worcester for the union of Deb & Steve. We started off in Elm Park at the bridge for some formals of the wedding party.

and a few Bridal Portraits

before heading over to the church for the ceremony.
After the ceremony we took a few more outdoor photos
then headed to the church function room.

The bride & groom's first dance.

The kids. I really must start bringing someone along to video my photo events an sessions.

How do you get 6 kids ages 2 - 7 to look and smile? Balance something on your head and tell them to make sure it doesn't fall off. :) you have no idea the lengths I'll go to and the silly things I'll do to get a smile.

One of the flower girls.

Mmmmm!

I then headed up to Old Orchard Beach Maine where Steve & Deb first met to take some photos on the beach. Here they are amidst the flowering sand dunes.
The beach shots came out great! They had lots of fun with these.

Steve decided that they were done, so off they went.

White Dress Season

Here are a few fun images from Deanna & Chris' nuptuals this past Saturday which took place in Gardner, MA.

Here are a few images from Brenna's First Communion Portrait Session that took place on Sunday. She will make her First Communion next week end.

Family pics, Bridal Play it Again session, a first birthday celebration, and a Holiday Card Session

Here is Stephanie with her 3 month and 22 month old boys.

They are a couple of little cuties. This little guy had his own agenda as all 22 month old's do. One way to get him to look and smile was to have his mother stand behind me with a helium balloon and bop me off the head while I said "OW!" That got me some great shots. Oh the things I'll do for a smile!

The session was a first for Stephanie who was very pleased with the outcome. I'll be seeing this group again in the spring!
Sabrina and Jose were looking to get some creative bride & groom photos in a more relaxed setting so off we went to Elm Bank in Natick early on a Sunday morning and worked our way around to all the fun spots for photos.

This little cutie "Princess Emma" celebrated her first birthday later on Sunday afternoon. She resembled a queen rather than a princess with her cape and crown. She was very excited with all of the attention.

Happy Birthday Emma!

Layla and her family had their holiday card session.

An afternoon session when Layla hadn't had a nap and has lots of teeth coming in at once made for quite a few mood changes during this session.

I was actually wondering if I was going to have to go back because I didn't get anything use-able.We sang, gave I gave her my bell necklace to jingle. We sang some more.... and as you can see by these few not only did I get some good ones,

but I ended up lots of really great ones.

Wedding Weekend

Jessica and Hector's wedding weekend began on Saturday afternoon with their wedding rehearsal. I then met the bridal party and parents at Wollaston Beach for a fun session.

Here's the entire group

Some assorted fun pics of the bridal party.

The nuptuals took place on Monday afternoon. Here are some formals of the bride and groom.
