Zoe’s Bat Mitzvah Portraits – Larz Anderson Park, Brookline

Last Fall, I had the opportunity to photograph Zoe’s Bat Mitzvah.  The event was so fun, and we even shot some portraits the day before – but the weather that weekend was gross and we just didn’t get the bright sunny portraits we were hoping for.  So, we picked a nice Spring day and tried again!  This time we got sunshine…. cold winds, but sunshine!  It’s hard to get the weather quite right in New England in the Spring ;)  But I love how these turned out!

Mary & Gerard’s Engagement Session – Brookline, MA

Springtime and summer in New England can be a bit, um, rainy – as you saw in the last post.  This can make scheduling engagement sessions a little tricky.  Mary & Gerard were having the worst luck finding a time for their shoot and we ended up doing it just this past week.  There are a bunch of shoots waiting in the queue, but I bumped this one up since they’re getting married one week from today!  I like to make sure clients see their engagement images before the wedding so I can get feedback from them on what they like & what they don’t particularly love.  Plus, if they love them (which clearly I hope they do!), they feel that much more comfortable on the wedding day!  So, in light of that, here are a few of my favorites from Maria & Gerard’s session at Larz Anderson Park!

The sunlight was just perfect that evening!

It’s a beautiful park, and we only walked around a small part of it!  I can’t wait to explore some more :)

You wouldn’t know that Gerard hates having his picture taken ;)

I was loving the checkered floor, and the columns, and the light coming in!

And then I looked up, and had to shoot the ceiling too!  How cute are these two, by the way?!
