Brayden!! The last of THREE brothers to have senior pictures with me 🥹

Like most senior guys, I’m fairly certain getting dressed up and spending an evening taking pictures at the beach was somewhere near the bottom of Brayden’s list of preferred activities😁 But you would NEVER know it looking at these!! He absolutely crushed it, and that white shirt + golden sunset combination was perfection.

So fun getting to photograph the youngest brother and officially complete the set!

Pastels + mid-morning beach sessions = such a gorgeous combination! 🤍 Soft colors complement the blues in the sky and water so beautifully, giving your senior pictures a fresh, elevated feel. And this lilac dress? With those little shoulder bows? Just perfect!!

Ohhhh Catherine’s session. 😍 From the hydrangeas to the very last bit of sunset, this one was SO Cape Cod.

Catherine and her family live in Iowa, but spend their summers vacationing on the Cape, and I’m so happy they found me for her senior pictures!! We started at their family’s summer house in Chatham, where the hydrangea-lined fence was basically begging to be photographed, and then headed to Lighthouse Beach for the prettiest golden evening.

Her yellow dress against that soft pastel sky?! The lighthouse in the distance?! And the little stuffed lamb she’s had since childhood coming along for a few photos?! 🥹 I loved ALL of it.

Catherine, you are absolutely gorgeous, and this was such a beautiful night!! 💛

Violet!!! 🤍 She came all the way down from New Hampshire for her senior session, and I am SO happy and honored that she did. I mean… could she be any more gorgeous?! And this evening absolutely showed off for us.

Violet is a dancer and brought along both her very first pair of ballet shoes AND her current pair for a few photos. 😭🩰 Please, every ballet dancer coming to me for senior pictures, take notes because THIS is the kind of detail I absolutely love. The tiny shoes next to the ones she wears now?! Come on. 🥹

Four outfits, gorgeous beach grass, the prettiest golden light, that blue floral dress against the ocean, and a perfect pastel sky to finish it all off. Such a beautiful night for such a beautiful senior. 🤍

I love when pictures tell me something about you 💙

If you play a sport, dance, make music, paint, surf, ride horses… whatever it is that has been a big part of your high school years, consider bringing a little piece of it to your session!

And it doesn’t have to mean posing in a full uniform. Sometimes something as simple as a pair of pom-poms at the beach gives us a chance to create a few images that feel fun and completely different from the rest of your gallery.

My favorite senior galleries have a mix: beautiful portraits for Mom, photos that feel like you right now, and a few that capture the things you’ll want to remember about this season of your life.

Tip for 2027 seniors: When you’re planning your session, make a quick list of 2–3 things that feel especially “you.” We can always find a creative way to work one of them in. 🤍

Mackenna!! 🤍 This entire evening was just SO good.

Mackenna is a senior at Champlain Valley Union High School. We could not have asked for a prettier night on the South Shore for her session. Golden light, beach grass, the prettiest sunset, and that blue dress against the ocean 😍

And can we talk about her EYES?! Mackenna has two different colored eyes, and they are absolutely beautiful. I could have photographed those close-ups all night!

Her whole family came along for the session, and they were seriously the sweetest. We laughed, wandered all over the beach, and just had the best time together. 🤍

Mackenna, you are GORGEOUS. Cheers to your upcoming senior year!

Shoutout to WALSH STYLING BEAUTY BAR for Mackenna’s gorgeous hair styling ✨

Cullen came all the way from Rhode Island for his senior pictures on the South Shore, and brought the BEST smile with him 😁

We had such a fun evening exploring the beach and marsh, mixing in a few different looks and, of course, incorporating soccer into his session. I absolutely love when seniors bring something that feels like them into their photos.

Also, can we talk about these outfits?! The whites, creams and soft blue were basically made for a coastal senior session. 👌🏻

Such a fun session with the nicest senior and family!!

This year, I won’t be using my studio for family Christmas portraits, so I’d LOVE to share this beautiful space with other photographers for their holiday sessions! 🎄🤍

My bright, natural-light studio in North Scituate will be available to rent throughout October, November + December, with plenty of options to create your own Christmas setup.

You’ll have access to:

✨ Beautiful lit Christmas tree + strings of fairy lights
✨ Antique white window frame
✨ Neutral upholstered bench
✨ Cozy knit blankets + white fur throws
✨ Beautiful Moses basket for little ones
✨ Multiple chairs + seating options
✨ Backdrops + additional studio props
✨ Lots of gorgeous natural light!

Rentals begin at two hours, and you can easily add additional time if you’d like to book a longer block or schedule multiple clients back-to-back.

And one of my favorite parts: you can come in the evening before your rental to set everything up! Move furniture, choose your props, get your Christmas setup exactly how you want it, and arrive the next day ready to shoot. 🙌🏻

Everything can be booked right online through the link in my bio!

Molly’s Yarmouth sunrise session was 100% worth the 4AM alarm. 🌅🤍

Soft golden light, an almost-empty Cape Cod beach, and the prettiest mix of pink, white, denim, and bare feet in the sand. I seriously could have photographed her all morning!

Sunrise senior sessions are underrated. The beaches are quiet, the light is gorgeous, and you get that dreamy summer glow without the crowds.

Molly, you are BEAUTIFUL!! 💕 So many favorites from this morning!
