after meeting this lovely family at the hospital a few days earlier…i was really looking forward to having them out to my home for their full session. this is not a typical situation for me. i prefer to shoot in my clients home…but this was a special circumstance as they were moving to New York City less than 2 weeks after they delivered here in Boston. their home was pretty much packed up and ready to go. rather than maneuver around boxes; i was more than happy to offer up our freshly cleaned out spare room in my home.
i really loved so much about our session. i loved how much J and D understood and felt comfortable with my shooting style. it really can bring the end result to such a different level. i highly recommend to anyone who is booking a session with a photographer; familiarize yourself with their work. grab a cup of coffee and sit down with your significant other and read through your photographers blog together. (most photographers these days have one.) your going to go into your session or wedding day more confident and comfortable with the photographer you have chosen.
our afternoon was full of conversation. honest and genuine conversation. one of my favorite things to learn about my new parents is how they met. i love the smiles and glances that are exchanged when they share “their story.” no matter how simple the story…it stirs up a different feeling while holding the little person you created together.
i walked away from our session with new friends. (new friends who sadly have moved to New York.) not only are J and D some of the sweetest people on earth…they are such an incredible team as well. i loved watching them work together, taking care of their sweet girl. you can tell they are going to be amazing parents. so confident and comfortable…this little girl is so lucky.

So magical! Stunning Keri! You have such a gift. So mad I didn’t have you down when Dylan was first born. We do need a family portrate though! We’re thinking about going to Maine this summer, we may have to stop at your place for a photoshoot on the way. Absolutely gorgeous photos!
Thank you so much Kim!!! I may be down your way in the spring…maybe we can do something then!!! Hope you guys are well!
Amazing! I wish I knew you 13 years ago. I remember some of the precious moments that I had with my babies. They are in my mind but to have them recorded as you did with this family would be as Kim said, magical.
