Bonnie' Senior Session at Lars Anderson Park

in

Not too long ago I was driving from point A to point B, taking an unusual route for me, when I drove park Lars Anderson Park in Brookline. I took mental note of it because it had a lovely pond and some bridges and a gazebo.

Shortly after that, Bonnie’s mom got in touch about a senior session and wouldn’t you know, Lars Anderson Park was a convenient and approved location for her session!

The pond ended up being all cracked and dried up, and the gazebo was overtaken by wedding guests and also was rather unimpressive in person, but no matter! Bonnie and I made some cool photos together in unexpected spots of the park.

Carissa

Carissa is a fan of animals, Marvel comics, and all things creative. We met at Boston Public Garden (a reoccurring location this season!) and had a great time chatting and making photos while her two lovely parents hung back and enjoyed watching their daughter have fun.

Weekend of Seniors!

in

Good sports!

To say my first weekend of October was busy would be an understatement. As busy and hectic as it was, it was also so much fun! Here are some senior photos I captured that weekend. Three seniors; Funmi, Jared and Jasmine, in downtown Boston, and a group session with Anissa, Patricia, Sofia and Sarah in Boston Public Garden and the Beacon Hill.

This was the first time I had a group of high school seniors together for a session and they seemed to have the best time together. And they were game when I asked them “Are you willing to lay down on these cobblestones?”

Amelia's Senior Session

in ,

(When you draft a blog entry in October and suddenly realize months later you never published it. Until now!) High school senior Amelia and I, along with her mom, wandered Boston Common and Beacon Hill for her session. The weather here in Boston has been so hit or miss, so an overcast day was appreciated in lieu of rain!


Olivia's Senior Portrait Shoot

in ,

Olivia decided on Boston Common and the surrounding area for her session. I had a great time wandering on a beautiful Sunday (along with, apparently, everyone else in Boston!) with her and her mom. We explored into Beacon Hill as well, and finished our session back in the garden.

Olivia is smart, chill, and flexible with all our wandering.

An as you can see, she did a great job during her session. And shout out to all the parents, Olivia’s included, who help with my shoots. In this case, leaf sprinkling!

Angeles' Senior Session

in ,

Well it was hot-as-a-griddle outside during high school graduate Angeles’ senior session on Boston Common, but you wouldn’t know that from the photos. She did an awesome job keeping a breezy manner for her shoot!


Phebean's Senior Session

in ,

A short time ago I met up with two Boston University alums for a photo shoot for BU Today. They chose the location, which was a bridge in South Boston. They called it “Southie Bridge” but as far as I can figure, it doesn’t actually have a name. It leads to a very cool underpass with gorgeous murals, concrete walkways and lovely tree-lined trails.

I knew when I saw it that this is where I needed to meet Phebean for her senior session. Phebean arrived with a few outfit changes, ending her session proudly wearing the shirt of the school she’ll be attending in the fall - Brandeis.

We brain-stormed before meeting in person and Phebe told me about her pride for Nigeria where her family is from. It was luck that when she brought her flag out to be photographed with it, the sun came out and the skies opened up all at once!

Phebe is also an activist and has organized some BLM marches, so I we incorporated that too.

She was so much fun to work with, and didn’t bat an eye when I suggested “how about climbing over on those rocks (in your lovely non-hiking sandals)?”
