First senior portrait session of the year! With Ava, at Medfield State Hospital 🌞

One of the last high school senior sessions I did for the class of ‘26, with Pepe 🧡

Working with Pepe was definitely a highlight for me. It was so cool getting to know her, and the sunlight that evening was everything I could’ve asked for ☺️

It started raining towards the end of this shoot with Leah. Thankfully, she was just as excited as I was to keep taking photos ☺️ and this is what we made!

My favorite photos from Briseida’s senior session! Big thank you to @horsesenseability in Sherborn for accommodating us 🤎

Olivia’s shoot was wrapped in that soft golden light that makes everything look so dreamy. Can’t wait for this weather to come back soon 🌞

In the 7-8 years that I’ve been working with seniors, I’ve learned that there’s a graceful balance between observation, creative direction, and play.

If you want the results to feel genuine, you can’t apply the same formula to every person you work with. Sure, there are techniques you revisit that ultimately add up to your signature style, but I like to believe there are compositions and “happy accidents” that simply fall into place when you work with a person. Their character, body language, the conversations you share in between photos, and the unpredictability of nature & light serve as guides when you grant them the attention they deserve. Medfield State Hospital is one of those locations I’ve shot at hundreds of times, and yet there’s never a shortage of perspectives to discover — as long as I open myself up to the overlooked and unplanned.

One of my favorite things lately: taking at least one portrait with direct sunlight at my senior sessions 🌞

So many favorites from Jaxon’s senior session! Ft. Felix 🐕

My favorites from Anna’s senior portrait session! We started at the Boston Public Garden, walked through the Boston Common, and ended with some night photos in the Theater District.

I’ve gotten very lucky this year with so many seniors who’ve specifically asked me for dreamy portraits. Fiona was one of those seniors! 🌟

If it weren’t for the obvious greens, you probably wouldn’t know that we shot these portraits in the middle of August. (They feel more like early fall to me!) Daniella looked effortlessly cool though, and I loved her outfit choices 🌟 

Part 2 with Laurianny 🌊 

Some thunder and lightning started to roll in during the last half hour of our shoot, which gave us such a cool blue-hour sky! 

This is, without a doubt, one of my favorite sets of senior portraits I’ve ever delivered 🩵 — so much so that I’m splitting up my posts into two parts. Here’s part 1! 

I hadn’t done many beach shoots until this year, but I really enjoyed trying something new! I always say that some of my favorite locations are the ones I’d never been to before, and that’s because they motivate me to rely less on muscle memory and more on perception. The fact that Laurianny added film to her shoot and was looking for a more cinematic look in general also made this experience a memorable one :) 

It'd been a while since I last did a shoot in the Fenway area, so thank you to Chloe for selecting it!

Lots of opportunities to make dreamy portraits at the Fenway Victory Gardens and Kelleher Rose Garden 🌹⛲️🌳

With every new season of high school senior portraits, I ask myself what I can do to approach things differently. The last thing I want is to find myself applying the same formula to every single shoot. I want to show up for each person who trusts my vision, and meet them halfway: somewhere between my creative impulses and their unapologetic personality. Lately, that means seeking out backdrops, poses, and compositions that I haven’t tried before, which has been very rewarding!

When Jane reached out to me last spring, she was looking for something natural yet colorful. And while I’m not against working under cloudy skies, I am so happy we got such beautiful sunlight! ☀️

A sign that spring is never too late for high school senior photos! 🌸

Emily didn’t get the chance to have photos done last fall, so I’m glad we were able to do a spring session together while the Public Garden was in bloom 🥰

Thank you @emmily.sparks for a lovely afternoon, and good luck at BC!

Thank you @kapilchaturv for having me do your senior pics this fall! Love how these turned out ☀️

I had so much fun exploring Beacon Hill and the Public Garden with Devin this summer! 🥰

I admire that Devin referenced his musical theatre background with his tap shoes in a few photos, as well as his love for Boston in general. It made the full experience so much more celebratory and personal! 

Thanks @devincurley_ for trusting me with your vision 🫶
