Greycourt State Park Senior Session {Massachusetts Senior Photographer} Cameron Class of 2016

We are often asked for suggestions on where to do our clients photo sessions, and at the top of our list is always Searles Castle {aka Greycourt Park} in Methuen.

When asked where to do Cameron's senior photos, I knew this would be the perfect spot.

Our Family Photos {Massachusetts Family Photographers} Stevens-Coolidge Estate North Andover, Massachusetts

While we were doing our Garden Minis at The Stevens-Coolidge Estate, we enlisted the help of my Mom to come and babysit our little man while we were doing other families sessions. Since we were all going to be there, we knew this was the perfect opportunity to do some of our pictures! As photographers, we spend so much time behind the camera we rarely get to be in a photo with all three of us unless its a quick iPhone snap. We got there early and chased our 1.5 year old son Tripp around the gardens and got some adorable photos of him, and with each of us.

The flower filled gardens and ocean provided the perfect backdrop for their family photos.

Her daughter Kim's family home was the perfect spot to capture their family photos.

What better way to kick off the summer than a perfect day in Ogunquit, Maine celebrating Star and Valerie's wedding!
