2024 Senior Connor

This summer, I had the pleasure of photographing Bellingham High School senior Connor as my first Class of 2024 Senior of the season! This was an extra special session, as I’ve been photographing his family for going on 10 years now, and I could not believe what a grown young man he’s turned into!

On what had to be one of the most humid days of July, Connor was an absolute champ. We started with a quick session at Riverbend Farm, where I photographed one of my first seniors (his aunt!) back in 2013.

Wanting to focus on what he loves most – his passion for football and wrestling – we headed over to the football field at Bellingham High School to wrap up his senior session. By then the humidity had lessened a bit (thank you!) and Connor was clearly in his element – on the field.

I hope you have an amazing senior year, Connor!

Paterson Family

The Paterson family was my last family session of the 2022 season, and what a show-stopper it turned out to be. As is typical in November, weather forced us to reschedule a few times but we finally ended up with the perfect afternoon. A little chilly, but oh that sunset – just what Erika envisioned!

Even when there’s a beautiful sunset and a bright red barn (two of my favorite things!) I love converting images to black and white. I feel like it really allows the story to come through – focuses your attention on the interactions, the textures, the emotions. I was excited to hear Erika also shares a love for black and white images too, so we mixed in a lot of those options as well.




Once the boys had had enough, we sent them off and took a moment to capture just Erika and Rob together.

As I was wrapping up editing, I recalled having similar images from their wedding I captured, just about 9 years previously. I had to share…

2021 Senior Jake

This client had a vision for his senior portrait session: rustic, country, and a tractor. We started Jake’s session at a local park, a favorite location of his family (and where we captured his older sister, Autumn’s Class of 2017 Senior Portraits).

I reached out to my local farm, Town Line Dairy Farm located in Upton, MA. The owners, Crystal and Johnny, were SO wonderful in opening up their farm for us to capture the shots we wanted. Jake, a senior enrolled in the Auto Technology program at the local vocational high school, was even offered the opportunity to take the tractor for a drive across the field.

Jake wrapped up his session with an up-close-and-personal meeting with some of the cows, and I took advantage of the opportunity to take some of their portraits as well. I have to say, this is hands-down one of my top 5 favorite sessions I’ve every done!

BHS Senior Henry

Brookline Highschool senior, Henry, was looking for a more natural, wooded venue as the backdrop for his senior portrait session. We ventured to Pratt Pond in Upton, and were lucky to get one of those perfect, October afternoons.

Addison Turns One

Addison, you came into our life at just the right time to complete our family. It’s been such an amazing journey watching you grow, and watching Kaydence become a big sister 🙂 You have brought so much love and laughter to our household, I can’t believe how quickly this first year has passed!!

Natick Senior Session at Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary

On a hot summer August day, I met up with this lovely Natick High Senior for her senior portrait session! This was my first time visiting the Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary, and I have to say, I think I’ve found a new favorite portrait session location! Fiona has spent many summers at this sanctuary as a camp counselor, and knew all the best little spots to go for these gorgeous photo opportunities.

Here are a few of my favorites:

2017 Senior Ellie

Last summer I was excited to FINALLY photograph this wonderful class of 2017 Blackstone Valley Tech senior, Ellie. I met Ellie back when she was a Freshman in high school, when she grabbed one of my senior portrait flyers for her mom insisting “I’m going to have you do my senior portraits!” Fast forward three years (and how quickly THEY went) and sure enough here we were, planning out her senior portrait session!

Ellie is quite a unique individual, and wanted to make sure we captured that in her portraits. I love when my seniors bring unique props to showcase their favorite activities and hobbies! An Edgar Allen Poe fanatic, we got photos of Ellie her with her collection of favorite books, her sketchbook, and of course her camera.

Ellie will be attending Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) pursuing a degree in Production.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing this Blackstone Valley Tech senior, Meaghan! I have to say this is one of my favorite families to work with – we always have so much fun with their shoots! This time we explored the BEAUTIFUL Moore State Park and I have to say, I now have a new favorite spot! (well, with the exception of those water snakes we had to dodge – eek!) Some places are just so beautiful, it’s worth the risk 😉

I also love photographing dancers, and have a special love for Pointe – I still can’t imagine the strength and training (and pain!) must go into being able to do that!

After graduation, Meaghan plans on attending Umass and majoring in Communication Disorders.
