Julia's First Communion

I love all kinds of photography but some of my favorite sessions have always been first communions.  I love how excited the children get at that age for there big day.  Here is Julias session from a while back.  I just loved this session.

McGarry/Churchill Family Session: Taunton, MA Family photographer

The other day I had a great time photographing the McGarry/Churchill family at Middleboro's Oliver Mill park.  I hope you enjoy the photos.

Great family 

 She had a fun time playing peek a boo

The love between a girl and her dog

Photography Challenge Week 15: Using a spot light South Eastern, MA

So this weeks photography challenge was to use a spot light.  Any kind of light.  I have been really interest in life style sessions as of late.  So I wanted some more real life shots of my daughter.  I snuck into her room.  Said a little prayer that she would not wake up and shined a little flash light on her. Here are just 2 of the shoots I got.

Photography Challenge Week 13: Off Camera flash backlighting, Day light. South Eastern Photographer. Taunton, MA

This challenge turned out much better then I thought.  I have been sick for the last few days so I really thought this would not be fun.  Today I sucked it up and dragged myself and my little one out to do some photos.  She had fun with it and I think they turned out great.  I even got some real smiles.  I really hope you all like them as much as I do.  I can't wait to print them.

Photography Challenge Week 11: Free Lensing South Eastern, MA Photographer.

This was the most challenging challenge yet.  Free Lensing is no easy task.  It will take many tries for me to master this (if I ever master).  But all the frustration is well worth it when you get the right effect. It can make a shot look dreamy.  Out of all the shots I took I only really loved one.  This one of my daughter.  It looks dreamy to me. 

Family photos: Family photographer Easton, MA

I am playing catch up on a bunch of blog posts.  I was holding out for awhile so that I didn't ruin anyone's Christmas presents. Needless to say over the next few days I will be blogging a lot.

This family was so much fun to photograph.  And one of my first large groups to do. I believe there are 18 of them.  It was so much fun.  And I truly think I love photographing large groups. It was a great session. I We got them all in and just as we where finishing up the skies opened up and it started to pour.

 

Photography Challenge Week 7: Light Painting South Eastern, MA Photographer

I have been waiting for this challenge.  I had it in my head how it would go.  I thought I was going to be able to use my flash light for the whole thing.  I thought I would be able to write words with it.  Guess what writing words with a big flash light doesn't work.  So off I went to staples today to buy a small flash light or a laser pointer.  I ended up buying these really cool small flash lights with glow stick bottoms.  I think this will be great for light painting.  I didn't have time to use them yet but I promise a post later this week with my new light painting photos.  This is  a fun concept and I cant wait to try them at a session. 
For this I had to use what was on hand though.  So I used the big flash light and my willow tree Nativity set figures.  I light the flash light right over mary to give it a spot light effect.  then swirled the flash light fast to illuminate the other figure just a little. 

Photography Challenge Week 6: Backlighting, South Eastern MA photographer

This challenge was a quick one for me.  I am glad there was inside options as it has been far to cold for me to do outside work.   This weeks challenge was all about back lighting with any light source.  At first I tried my daughters night light but that was just not enough so I used a small led flash light.  I really liked the results and I can not wait to try this again.  Will be fun to do at a wedding.

Photography Challenge Week 5: Starry Night Sky, Taunton, MA

This challenge was a difficult one.  Not only do you need to get your setting just right but you need the perfect night to get the stars just right.  I loved trying this challenge. I found the challenge to be with light pollution   Some day I will get myself to the beach or the middle of a field somewhere on a very starry night and get some great shots. For my first try I think they came out pretty good.  I can't wait to try this again.

Photography Challenge Week 4: Prisms Taunton, MA Photographer.

This weeks Challenge was very challenging.  I very much had this image in my head. I thought this would be a great idea to use when photographing an engagement or couple session among Christmas trees with lighting over head. I can picture the fun lights reflecting everywhere.  How pretty would that be.  Some day I will do a session like that.  But until then my handsome English Bulldog Baxter modeled for me.  As much as I think this didn't come out just how I wanted I really could image all the fun ways to use the prism in the future.  It will become a fixture in my camera bag for sure.
 

 The one above you can see the haze it caused over the image
The one below you can see the prism in the corner very interesting.

Photography Challenge: Window Light: Taunton, MA Photographer.

This weeks photography challenge was something I had some major plans for.  I had a picture in my head of what I wanted.  Sometimes time escapes you so  I am so thankful to have amazing clients that let me use there families for this photography challenge. 

Yesterday I got the great honor to photography one of newborn family one year later.  I had her stand in on a little chair in front of the family's  big beautiful window.  This was the results.  

Oh so CUTE!!!

A few weeks ago I got to do Ella's 6 month photos. I cant believe it had been 6 months since I did her newborns.  She is just too cute. 

 

 

She made me work for every smile but it was so worth it

 

 

 

I took a photo of Ella in a pink bucket for her newborn sessions.  I also took a photo in the same bucket for her 6 month session.  I love to see the growth.
