Unfortunately, Annika’s family wasn’t able to do the portrait session before her Bat Mitzvah because of a family emergency. Since they’re a “requirement” we decided to do them after the fact :) So a few weeks after the party, I visited them down in Newton and we captured a few portraits by the pond near their house.


Then we headed back to their house for a few more…

I love this shot of the girls!

They have this fun little booth in their basement. The whole area is decorated in Coca-Cola paraphanalia – I knew I liked these people!! (in case you’ve never met me, when you do, I’ll probably have a Coke in my hand…)

A teenage girl’s bedroom is her solace, such an extension of herself – it can say so much about who she is. I thought it’d make a great spot for a few more natural shots of Annika…




Thanks again for everything you guys! I hope you LOVE the photos :)

I’m a documentary photographer – I like to capture life as it unfolds. From a kiss between a bride & groom on their wedding day, to a mother holding her newborn baby. From baptisms in Boston, to churches in Zimbabwe ministering to AIDS orphans. It’s my passion to capture moments between people, and to document the work of God throughout the world.
