Some of my latest work

It has been a great season and I have met some wonderful families. Here are a few examples of my last few portraits.

Great kids!

The latest of my portraits. It was another stunning night with fantastic light.

Busy!

This was a very busy crowd! Twin boys, their five year old brother and a little munchkin in a pink dress. We were all over this beach tonight. They dressed all in pink, (which I love) and the night sky agreed. The setting sun was a fantastic fuchsia!

At Last!

A beautiful sunset! It was a gorgeous night with lighting that was just perfect for this family of five who summer here from Canton.
More fun kids make for more great photo opportunities! I love my job!

Ozzie

Tek watching Ozzie out the front door.
Last night, our dog Tek was not himself. He was pacing, whining and complaining in his own dog ways. He wouldn't rest, every so often crying at the door. Very unlike himself.
When the Olympics were over at midnight we let him out one last time before retiring for the night. He stood on the grass and whimpered. When I stepped outside the door I noticed he had found a small baby bird that had fallen from a nest we have been watching for weeks.
Needless to say the circus continued for an hour after. (This consisted of me running nervously around the backyard with dishtowels in my nightgown, in the rain, trying to carefully protect this animal for the night) Without to many crazy, boring details, I will say we have now adopted this little bird and named him Ozzie.
I think this is how great stories and children's books are born. This gentle giant of a dog is so curious and kind towards this little creature. Adorable!
No worries animal people, I have called the wildlife authorities and all is well. Ozzie's mom continually feeds him and squawks when we are near.
I have been told that in the next few days he will continue to grow and learn to fly. We look forward to watching him find his freedom!

Another stormy night

Well, this one was touch and go all day long. We thought it was rained out this morning then out came the sun! Right before our session, the black clouds rolled in again. What a crazy August it has been. Either way, I was able to take enough pictures to call in a success. I am ready for a full stretch of sunshine!

A fun Family!

Tonight I had the privilege of meeting a wonderful family who summer here on the Cape. All three children are a part of the sailing club in Yarmouth so it was fitting that I photographed them among a harbor of boats. It's very nice to see such happy kids who know how to really belly laugh and enjoy each other. Thank you Kelly family for a beautiful evening.

A Stormy night!

Wow, we barely got this session done! It was incredibly dark and stormy for the start of this portrait and began to rain. After waiting it out in the car, we tried a second time. The night became quite beautiful and lighting was perfect. I am happy to have had the chance to do these pictures because most of this family came from the Boston area. Someone was certainly on our side this evening.
