Melissa, Shaun and I got together on a balmy and beautiful Summer evening at the Crane Estate in Ipswich, MA. It was warm and quiet and we had the place to ourselves, well aside from the mosquitoes… But these guys took in in stride, cuddled like there was no tomorrow, and would you just LOOK at how cute they are?!
I can’t say often enough how much I LOVE getting to photograph families over time! It is SO COOL to bear witness to the evolution of two people becoming so much more! From engaged couple, to bride & groom, to a family of their own… it’s a honor, truly. So, I was pumped to go visit Sylvia & Ricky and see just how big Baby Matty has become now that he’s one year old! And man! If I thought this kid was cute before, he is EVEN CUTER now!! Check out my faves from our portrait session!
It really is such a treat getting to photograph a family over the years! CoCo originally photographed Kate & Peter’s wedding at the Harvard Faculty Club back in 2014. And then they moved to Indianapolis. When I went back home to Indy last summer, I had the opportunity to see them and photograph their new baby, Madeline! And this year, on my annual pilgrimage back to Indiana, I got to see them again!! Madeline has gotten so big, and if you can believe it, even cuter!! Check out my favorites from our portrait session!
More fun from Kayla’s first Year-in-the-Life! I went up to visit them right before Christmas for Kayla’s 7 Month Portraits… and a little holiday cheer! This is like my FAVORITE stage of baby-ness!! They can hold themselves up on their tummies, they can sit up, and giggle, and really connect with you — but they’re not quite able to get away yet ;) It’s the BEST time for photos!!
Amy introduced you to sweet little Kayla a few weeks ago. I visited her four times over the course of her first year of life, and I must say, it’s been very fun watching her grow up from infant, to baby, to toddler! She’s such a sweetie!
I shot Amy & Lawrence’s wedding a few years ago, and then they moved to California, and more recently they had a baby! Thankfully for me, they came back to Boston for a visit and I got to meet little Ilam – and boy is he a cutie! He woke up from a nap just after I arrived and he looked up and smiled at me… and it was precious, and we became friends :) Check out my favorites from our time together!
Once or twice a year, I offer Portrait Mini Sessions for those families who want updated portraits, but perhaps don’t have the time or the budget for a full session. I keep them limited to clients and friends I’ve worked with before, who have a good understanding of my style. It makes these quick 15 minute sessions go so much smoother when we already have a relationship! This year, we wanted some pretty Spring colors, so we ended up shooting in the old cemetery at Lake Quannapowitt, in Wakefield MA. It was BEAUTIFUL!
It’s that time of year again… we’ve (hopefully) had the last snow, the flowers and leaves are budding, the sun is actually shining, and Bostonians are starting to come out of hibernation! At Krista Photography, we’re in the calm before the storm that is wedding season. That means we have a little extra time to design wedding albums and photograph lots of families before the craziness begins again in June. To celebrate, we’ve decided to have a little Spring Sale… just in time for tax returns to roll in ;)
GUYS! I can’t even TELL you how excited I am to share this wedding! You may remember Nora and Kevin from their snuggly, beer-induced, winter engagement session. These two are an absolute favorite around the studio, I was so excited to see them on their wedding day, and true to form they laughed, they cried, they snuggled, it was SO. FUN.
So, it’s been six months, but “baby” AJ turned ONE! Krista was invited over to document his first taste of cake (unsure at first… but someone figured it out!) and catch this family in the midst of life with an almost-toddler.
