Boston: A Happy Mother's Day

MORAN_Family_HOGGERCo._title_001.jpg

Spring in Boston has got to be one of the most beautiful times of the year, which is hard to believe since Summer, Autumn and Winter are equally as picturesque, but Spring really is the celebration of new life and the rejuvenation of everything around us.

The Lewis Family

Allow me to introduce you to the lovely, warm, fun-loving, cheerful and beautiful Lewis Family, who I had the honor of photographing in Cohasset this past weekend.

I met Suzanne, one third of the Just Us Gals, at this event and was excited to meet her mom, sister and boyfriend as well as the latest edition to the family: French bulldog puppy Pierre, who is just the cutest lil' guy!

Photographed at the end of summer while the grass was still green, the water still sparkling, and the shade of the trees telling stories that would make Autumn jealous....

Hello Molly!

I had the honor of photographing baby Molly, recently. There's nothing like capturing the innocence, beauty and fragility of a new baby. Molly had just turned four months old at the time of this shoot and was a professional superstar! Her lovely Mom was a delight to work with, singing tunes that, I admit, I've been singing all week!

So, say "Hello!" to Molly! (And to Buddha, who came to play!)

Thank you to Cara and Molly for a wonderful photo session!

The Hamilton's IV

The Hamilton's are always a treat for me to capture, and they are no strangers to this blog! Last summer we went nautical in downtown Oakville and the time before that, we took to the barns!

I feel so blessed to have been able to shoot their fourth annual family portraits this year, where our session took place in their gorgeous home and outdoors on a rainy (pre-Hurricane Sandy) fall day...

To K+S, I just want to say, it's always a pleasure; thank you so much for your support! xo

The Hamilton's III

I absolutely LOVE shooting the Hamilton's!  Their enthusiasm and boundless energy for shoots (and for life, in general!) always amazes me, and this third time around (see I and II, here) was no different.  In downtown Oakville, with a nautical backdrop (including props which I didn't even have to ask for - see what I mean when I say these guys are pros?), we were ready.  An added bonus was happening upon a very cool old Dodge, which made for a fun "Cars" inspired theme.   This was Baby Benny's first shoot, having featured him last as a baby bump, this time, he was a natural in front of the camera. Em, of course, is one of my favourites, I adore capturing the lil' guy, who's growing up mighty quick! Then there's K&S who are always up for anything.  Be it waiting for threatening waves to break across the pier, then running away with their kids.  Or....having to pretend fish for the camera then actually having to fish out one of the said props.  K&S, you guys are priceless,  I love you; thank you so much for your continuous support. Words can't express how much it means to me to capture your growing family. xo

Happy 1st Birthday Benny!

A year ago Bennett was born. 

He was first photographed here, as a baby bump. 

We've been honoured to have had annual photoshoots with The Hamiltons and a few weeks ago we did our THIRD shoot with them! 

Teasers to come soon!  For now...

Happy 1st Birthday Benny! xoxo

The Bright's

It was such an honour to capture the Bright family, who are dear friends of ours. The J-man and Natalie made the perfect subjects for our "bright" and early morning shoot at Springridge Farm. What complete sports they all were, traipsing around in the sandbox and on bales of hay with various props in the hot sun. Thank you guys for giving me the opportunity to capture these moments for you. xo
