I’ve got a special place in my heart for my clients from Holbrook.  They’ve been coming back to me, and recommending me,  to their friends and family for a few years now.  I am so appreciative of that.  Callie’s family is one of them (and started it all).  I photographed her big sister Crystal three years ago (I can’t believe it’s been that long  – still seems like just last summer).  I also entered one of Crystal’s images into my state and regional photographic competition.

So I was looking forward to meeting and photographing Callie.  Her mom, Sue, said they looked  a lot alike.  They both have blonde hair and amazing green eyes.  But this day was Callie’s day – and she certainly shined! I loved photographing her sweet smile.  Thank you for coming down to Scusset Beach again!

Here’s a sneak peek of Jackie – she’s going to be a senior at Blue Hills Tech, where she is in the Graphics program.  She likes to design T-Shirts!  Oh and she also plays soccer. 

We had a perfect day for her senior pictures!  She brought lots of outfits and she had a blast being a model for a day! Her school uses one of those generic ‘school photographers’ for the yearbook pictures, but she came to the beach for the pictures that she really wants to remember her senior year by, and for giving out to family and friends.  Isn’t she gorgeous?

What I love about my job (well one of the many things I love about being a photographer) is when I get to watch and capture the changes in families. I photographed Kristin’s sister Michaelia’s senior portraits a few years ago, and I photographed this family in their backyard in Holbrook last summer. Kristin came down to Scusset Beach on a gorgeous evening for her senior portraits. Kristin will be a senior at Blue Hills Tech and is hoping to attend Salem State next year!  She’s got a great sense of style – so fun to photograph!

Here’s a sneak peek of some of Kristin’s senior portraits!

I traveled to this family’s home in Holbrook last week. I photographed Michaelia’s Senior Portraits a couple of years ago and now their very first Family Portrait!  I loved the light in the pool/deck area and we decided to stay there instead of traveling to another outdoor location. I was oh-so-tempted to jump right in their pool afterwards since it was so hot!  I just love this family – they’re so fun and good-looking too!  Here’s a sneak peek of their images:

The kids wanted to do a ‘fun’ one – I tried to convince them to jump in the pool, but they went for this one instead:I also photographed Frankie in his cool First Communion suit – here is ready for the cover of GQ…

Crystal and her friend Meghan came from Holbrook for senior portraits at the beach. The wind was a bit of a challenge. But we can always find non-windy spots…
And other times we let the wind have it’s way….it’s all good!
And one more to show off Crystal’s amazing green eyes…

Meet Samantha, a senior at Cardinal Spellman High School in Brockton. She’s hoping to attend the University of Miami after high school. She, like me, thinks that summers are just too short around here.
I did learn an important lesson during this session: Just because the dunes and beach grass areas no longer have the fencing, ropes, and “Keep Out” signs around them, does NOT mean it’s okay to go in them. Thank you to the nice park ranger lady who informed me, very nicely and politely, to stay out of the dunes/beach grass for now on.
