Ben and Olivia | Lynnfield Senior Portraits

Cousins Ben and Olivia met me at the lake in Wakefield for their senior portraits.

Here they are posing together to make their moms happy :-)

Ben said before the session that if the first picture came out good that he didn't want to take any more. He was quick and easy. This is my favorite of the handful I took of him but I can't decide if I like it in color or black and white.

Olivia was a little more willing to be in front of the camera.

This picture has every dance costume she's ever worn since she was 5 years old.

Thank you guys and I hope it wasn't too painful!! ;-)

Here is a slideshow of the rest of the photos.

Fun Project!

I saw this idea on the idea room blog. Kristen Duke contributes photography ideas and tutorials to the idea room. I really love Kristen's photography, personality, and the love she has for her family.

I did a senior portrait session yesterday with Olivia and she was very happy to help me put together this project. I'm thrilled with how my first attempt turned out.

Nichole 5 1/2 | Danvers Children's photography

Last weekend I went out with Nichole and her mom for our annual photo session. We went to Glen Magna again like we did last year. It's such a beautiful place with so many different places to go. Nichole was so easy and fun so I got a ton of great photos.

Here is a slideshow of the rest.

Courtney and Todd's wedding rehearsal | Danvers wedding photography

I was very happy to be a part of Courtney and Todd's rehearsal. It was a beautiful night and a fun time.

I think they have it down.

After the church we went to Finz in Salem for dinner, gifts, and a very nice slideshow made by a friend of Courtney and Todd.

The boys got beer and red sox tickets!

The girls got a goodie bag full of fun stuff including these beautiful necklaces








Thank you Todd and Courtney for including me in the evening. Here is a slideshow of the rest of the images...

John's christening | Lynnfield event photography

The B family hired me to get some family photos after John's christening. They were all gathered at a beautiful home that was full of photo opportunities.

Candice's bridal shower | Georgetown event photography

Candice's wedding is coming up in a couple of weeks and I'm so excited. A few weeks ago she had her shower and her mother hired me to photograph it.

Candice is a shoe-a-holic so the theme was shoes. It was perfect!

"Sole mates"

This was all a surprise for her including me being there. She said before she left her house she saw me logged into facebook! HAHA I have my chat program always on and it includes my facebook account so even though I'm not on the facebook website it looks like I'm logged in.

This was the best favor ever. It's a bottle opener!

Here are the rest of the photos from the day.

Jacob's Christening | Peabody event photographer

It was a beautiful Sunday a few weeks ago for Jacob's Christening. St. John's Church in Peabody is one of the most beautiful churches around. I was the band director at the school there for 5 years so I'm very familiar with the church.

I love this shot!

Mom Chrissy, Jacob, Dad and firefighter Paul

The christening was followed by a gathering at Petrillo's for the best Italian food around. I felt like a part of the family and will be seeing more of them next year when I photograph Paul's cousin's wedding (although I hope to see them before then!)

Here's a slideshow of the rest of the photos from the day.
