Salem Cross Inn Wedding {Massachusetts Wedding Photographers} Jackie & Brian

One of our favorite parts of being photographers is the amazing places we discover on our travels. We started the day at the Southbridge Hotel and Conference Center where Jackie and Brian got ready and shared their first look. Their ceremony and wedding reception were held at the Salem Cross Inn in West Brookfield, Massachusetts. The Salem Cross Inn is a perfectly restored 18th century New England farmhouse with amazing mountain views. 

Weir Hill North Andover, MA Family Photos {Massachusetts Family Photographer} The Tremblay Family

It has been several years since we first met with Samantha and Tom to discuss their wedding photography. Since then, we have been there to capture their engagement session, their gorgeous spring wedding, as well as two other weddings they have been in! Their family grew last year when they welcomed their beautiful twins, Mikey and Maddie, and we were thrilled to finally get the whole family in front of our camera!

Baby Michael IV {Massachusetts Newborn Photographers}

One of the greatest joys we have gotten to experience is watching our friends become parents and have a beautiful baby of their own. When we found out Michael and Audrey were pregnant we were thrilled! Over the past few months it has been so amazing to watch as their excitement grew as they anticipated the arrival of their son {We can also brag that we were among the first to know they were having a boy!!!}

Greycourt State Park Senior Session {Methuen Senior Photographer} James Class of 2016

We returned to our favorite local park, Greycourt State Park, to do James' Senior Photos {You might remember we were here a few weeks ago doing his cousin Cameron's Senior Photos} this week and had another great session there. The best part about having your session here is that there are so many places to take photos, which ensures that no two shoots are exactly the same.

Each year, the Greater Lawrence Family Health Center hosts a beautiful Service Awards Dinner to honor their employees who are celebrating their 5 year anniversaries with the company {5, 10, 15, 20, 25 etc.} This was the second year they had me back and it was another perfect evening with a cocktail hour and a delicious dinner.

Phillips Academy Bird Sanctuary Senior Session {Massachusetts Senior Photographer} Ilana Class of 2016

Every year around this time the calls start coming in for last minute senior sessions, and we love it because they are some of our favorite sessions to do! Ilana is one busy lady with ballet every evening but we were able to sneak right around the corner from her house for her session at the Phillips Academy Bird Sanctuary {Moncrieff Cochran Wildlife Sanctuary}. 

Greycourt State Park Senior Session {Massachusetts Senior Photographer} Cameron Class of 2016

We are often asked for suggestions on where to do our clients photo sessions, and at the top of our list is always Searles Castle {aka Greycourt Park} in Methuen. Tucked away on a hill behind Methuen Town Hall is a hidden gem, that we did not discover until we started doing photography. When asked where to do Cameron's senior photos, I knew this would be the perfect spot.

Salisbury Beach State Reservation Family Photos {Massachusetts Family Photographer} The Medas Family

One of our favorite parts of being photographers is the awesome relationship we share with our wedding clients.

After the wedding, we love being able to continue our relationship and photograph their growing families.

Our Family Photos {Massachusetts Family Photographers} Stevens-Coolidge Estate North Andover, Massachusetts

While we were doing our Garden Minis at The Stevens-Coolidge Estate, we enlisted the help of my Mom to come and babysit our little man while we were doing other families sessions. Since we were all going to be there, we knew this was the perfect opportunity to do some of our pictures! As photographers, we spend so much time behind the camera we rarely get to be in a photo with all three of us unless its a quick iPhone snap. We got there early and chased our 1.5 year old son Tripp around the gardens and got some adorable photos of him, and with each of us. 

The Oswald Family {Massachusetts Family Photographers} Lynch Park, Beverly Massachusetts

We ventured to Lynch Park in Beverly, MA for The Oswald Family photo session last week and immediately fell in love with the location! On a beautiful Sunday evening, the park was filled with families having picnics and listening to live music. The flower filled gardens and ocean provided the perfect backdrop for their family photos. 

Baby Callen, Addison & The Pellerin Family {Massachusetts Family Photographers} Boston Children's Hospital

Callen has been a patient at Boston Children's Hopsital where he has received the most amazing care. Callen's Mom and Dad, Jenna and Steve, reached out to us to come to the hospital to shoot their family photos at the hospital and in the garden. Upon arriving, we were let in on the most exciting secret: CALLEN WAS GOING HOME THE NEXT DAY! After 5 long months in the hospital, he was finally going home to spend his first night under the same roof as his family. 

Baby Frankie & The Amiss Family {New Hampshire Family Photographer}

We recently had a photo session with some of our closest friends, The Amiss Family {Dana, Leigha, and their sons Jackson and Frankie}. Anthony and Dana have been friends since high school, and we have had the pleasure of capturing their family photos several times throughout the years with their son Jackson. At out last photo session, Jackson revealed to us that he was going to be a big brother! We couldn't have been more thrilled for their growing family,

The DeSouza Family {New Hampshire Family Photographer}

To celebrate Jackie's 70th Birthday her kids planned a surprise family photo shoot! Lucky for her, they gave her just enough notice so that they could coordinate their outfits. Her daughter Kim's family home was the perfect spot to capture their family photos. Fortunately, her pool was ready for everyone to jump in after the shoot on such a hot day. They were such a sweet and loving family and I'm sure this will be a birthday gift Jackie will always treasure!
