Baby Chloe at 4 months – Year-in-the-Life

I am really loving these Year-In-The-Life photo sessions!  It is so fun to capture all the changes as a child grows over the course of her first year on this earth!  It’s pretty amazing, actually.

You may remember baby Chloe, who was born to Gretchen & Justin last summer.  Well, she’s just growing and growing, and we had some time right around her 4-month birthday to capture some new images.  This may be my favorite age…somewhere between 3 months and crawling is the sweet spot.  They’re adorable and chubby, they have personality and expression, they can handle being moved around and will put up with a lot of photo taking, and they can’t get away!  And Chloe proved to be all of those things…

Gretchen & Justin – I hope you guys are well, and Chloe’s enjoying her first Boston winter!  Thank you for having me into your home yet again.  Chloe is adorable, and I can’t wait to see how much she grows by our next session!   :)

Baby Delia – Newborn Portraits

Not long ago, I captured some maternity portraits for Eileen & Fabio as part of a Year-In-The-Life Session.  Well, just a couple months later, baby Delia came into the world!  I met up with them over the holidays to capture some of Delia’s first hours at home.

Newborns are so tiny and delicate and precious, and they grow up so fast!  It’s great to be able to get there to document the first days of a brand new life!

Eileen & Fabio – thank you so much for inviting me into your home and your life.  I’m so excited to document Delia’s first year!  She’s SO sweet.  It’s going to be a blessing to watch her grow and change over the next 12 months!

A Year In The Life – Chloe’s Newborn Session

Well, it wasn’t long after Gretchen’s Maternity Session that little baby Chloe came along!  I was able to get over to the house just a day after she came home from the hospital.  I love little newborn babies because they’re SO tiny and cute!  And Chloe was no exception :)

Look at those little fingernails and tiny toes!

They decorated her room in Winnie The Pooh!  Eeyore was always my favorite…

I think this was the only second I actually saw her eyes

Of course, that meant that I had woken her up, and she did not like that one bit!

But swaddling her back up into a little baby burrito made her happy again :)

I love the look on new parents’ faces – some combination of awe and wonder and joy and concern (and maybe trepidation)

Abigail Marie

A couple weeks ago, my dear friend Diana gave birth to a BEAUTIFUL baby girl, Abigail Marie! Abigail is SO adorable – she came out perfect :) Diana and her husband Jonathan are first time parents and it’s so fun to see them on this exciting new adventure. I had the chance to visit them this week and take some portraits of the new baby and the new mommy. Check them out…

Diana is going to be such an awesome Mom!


Abigail was one tired little girl!

Sweet Princess :)


Look at that precious little profile!!

She’s just sooo cute!


Congratulations once again Diana & Jonathan! And welcome to the world little Abigail – you are in very good hands :)
