BOSTON CHILDREN'S PHOTOGRAPHER, BOSTON FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER, BOSTON NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER,

Hi.

I am so excited you found me! Seriously.

I am a child and family photographer. That's me with my husband Owen, son Christofer (3) and daughter Janey (1).

Typically I shoot on-location, where your family is most comfortable. My sessions are a mix of candids and natural portraits. I am very particular about crisp, true B&W images and bold colors. I love shooting into the sun, hazy flare, rim light halos. And I love a nice tight close up of a child’s face, crisp and clear, perfectly exposed. It's really important to me that I capture wonderful images of you that will preserve and treasure. I am incredibly lucky to have the clients I do and extremely fortunate that this is my work.

I am located just north of Boston and work within Boston, Metro-West and North Shore neighborhoods. In the summer I am available for sessions on the eastern end of Long Island, primarily Quogue and the surrounding towns on the North & South Fork.

To view more of my portfolio, or learn more about me, visit my website or contact me! Oh, and leave me blog comments. I love them. They make my day!

Vote for me!

This is a shameless plug from someone that never makes shameless plugs. I don’t enter my kids (or my photos) in contests, I pretty much just go with the flow. But I’ve entered myself in a “We are Millers” contest and I’d love your vote!

Millers is where I print all my prints, canvases and albums. I switched to them this February after having a lot of print and color issues with the other place I was printing. I seriously never looked back. If you’ve received a B&W print from me this year, you know what I am talking about. The crispness and clarity is INSANE. They print on true B&W paper and so there are never any stray color bleeds (often you’ll see a pale magenta, green, yellow or blue). Their color prints are fabulous too. I’ve started using them for albums, print boxes, those cute little gift albums… you name it.

So they are having this contest to essentially be the face of Millers and get your studio in an advertisement. It’s not a huge monetary prize, but great recognition. I really wanted to enter because I believe so fully in their product and service. For me, it doesn’t matter the question, Millers is the answer.

I decided I’d do a B&W submission of me with some B&Ws. I left it until the last minute, as I always do. I tried a few setups and was taking a few test shots, and gracefully tripped on my camera remote cord, pulled over my tripod, and dented my lens (which was a rental lens while my other dented lens is out being fixed… see a pattern here?). After 13 Valium, I recovered and decided to submit the one decent image I pulled out. It’s not how I envisioned it t all, but I like to make lemonade, so I went ahead and entered it in the contest.

So here I am, in all my glory. I’d love for you to vote for me. You can vote once a day until September 4th. I will post this on FB every day until then, my apologies and thanks in advance! If you are feeling kind, please also post on YOUR Facebook page or email to friends so I can get even more votes!
