That Golden Light

I recently took a trip up to Beverly for a session with this wonderful family. It was a combo family/kids/maternity session, and so much fun! Our session was during what us photographers like to refer to as “the magic hour”–as in, the hour or two just before sunset, when everything is covered in this honey colored evening light. I LOVE shooting during this time, and highly recommend it for all of my clients! The soft, diffused light at this time of day is something I like to take full advantage of–we have even less of it up here in New England, so I have to jump on it while I can!

(This post is a little pic heavy–I couldn’t stop processing these images, there were so many awesome ones to choose from!)

The “P” family is expecting baby #3 at the end of September, doesn’t mom look just radiant? I WISH I was this glowing when I was pregnant with Lila.

These two were so patient with me, and SO cute.

We let them run around a bit, which they loved.

I love everyone’s expressions in this next one–I love capturing moments like this! The kids were cheering because we told them this was the last one, and they could go run around some more.

Then mom and I went off for a little bit to capture these stunning shots. The next couple may look familiar to the photo in the blog header–I just couldn’t wait to put that up there. Here are a couple more from the same location.

I’ll end with my favorite shot. I don’t usually make things this artsy, but I couldn’t stop myself on this one. It may now be my new favorite photo.

Thank you guys for having me, I had such a fun time with you. I can’t wait to meet your newest addition in a few weeks!
