Wow. Check the detail. All shot with the Canon 5d Mark ii with a 50mm 1.4 lens. Not so shabby.

Of course the kids ain’t to bad either…

However, every once and a while some serious tickling had to interupt my testing of the new camera…

In case you have forever been dying to know what ISO is or have thus far managed to not worry your brain about this aspect of your camera… a little synopsis is coming soon.

Engagement session at Wellesley College Botanical Gardens
My job is most fun when I get to photograph a great couple in a new location. And what a great new location I discovered whilst searching for areas that would be in bloom. The lovely bride-to-be is really into flowers and color- and in April everything is just starting to sprout.
Add to that, I always look for a place that won’t be crowded with people (picture Boston Public Garden in the Spring). But I think I stumbled onto location-perfection here at the Wellesley College Botanical Gardens. The campus itself looks like the creation of a movie producer creating the look of what an ideal campus should look like. Lots of old buildings, sprawling lawns, cultivated garden areas, courtyards, arching trees… A photographer’s yummy stuff for the lens.
I could have stayed there for the whole afternoon.
But enough about the location… Check out this super sweet couple. I can’t wait to photograph them this summer! Thanks guys for the perfect afternoon.








Sweet Baby J
Babies don’t often come cuter than this. Baby J here is also quite advanced. She rolled from stomach to back during our session. I have never seen that before from a newborn less than a week old. I am convinced she was just trying to find the “good light” for my pictures.

This is her showing me her inner tiger.

And her handlers…

Right before she rolled… Look at her lifting up her head. This is a baby who may not be too into “tummy time”

Resting after a tough days work…
