The blog has moved...

You've reached my old blog... In order to simplify my blog, my portfolio and my life, I combined my blog and site into one. Now you can find my "blog" entries on my Recent Work page. You can also view my portfolio, link to slideshows and client information, and locate anything else you might need all in one place.

This blog contains old session blog posts, and my failed 2011 attempt at "One Image a Day" project in which I force myself to shoot something each day, personal or professional, as a challenge to myself. I'd love to hear what you think of the images as they might slightly stray from the norm. We'll see if I can pick it up for 2012!

May 17, 2011

Do you all notice a little trend here on my blog?  It’s called happy sitting babies, between 7-8 months old, that live in the city.  There is a posse of them, they are all super cute, well dressed and they all have the most excellent moms.  And the very odd thing is that even though they are almost all in the same development class at ISIS Parenting, and their moms are all mostly in the same workout classes, they all came to me from completely and totally different referrals… it is just by random chance that I can connect them all.  As luck would have it, I REALLY like their families, and I have really loved all their sessions!

So Saturday I was excited to meet this family because they came from my favorite red-headed superstar Lilly Pulitzer model.  You know who I am talking about if you peek in my studio and see the giant canvas of her sitting with her lovely girls.  And this family did not disappoint. You guys know the drill, I walk in… we chat… it’s Six Degrees of Kristina Young… I look around and determine maybe I should set up camp and move into their living room… they are all super cute… and the rest of the session is a wandering-around-town-conversation about all things Boston, work, marriage and parenting.  As if I have known them forever. So I really enjoyed myself if you can’t tell.  I hope they did as well!

So Laura, Jake & Johnny…. I hope you love what I captured.  Your son is gorgeous and contrary to what we worried about, I captured a ton of smiles!  Thank you so much for having me!
