High school senior Amelia and I, along with her mom, wandered Boston Common and Beacon Hill for her session. The weather here in Boston has been so hit or miss, so an overcast day was appreciated in lieu of rain!

Lately I’ve been introduced to some new locations to shoot and it’s been so fun! Aidan’s mom Julie recommended downtown Arlington and it was a great suggestion with a variety of spots - big rocks, architectural features to play with. Fun! And because the world is so small, while Julie and I were chatting we discovered her brother graduation from Ohio U one year before I started there. Here are some of my favorites from my time with Aidan; View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize ..read more

After recovering from the realization that Lauren is now a senior in high school and the child of a friend of mine from high school, (it’s not about you, Cydney!) we settled on a time and place and met up at Arlington Reservoir for a late afternoon session. Lauren arrived with ideas, and we had a blast working together to find nice light and backdrops and poses that worked. And being a low-brass player (in high school, anyway) myself, I definitely appreciated their incorporation of their passion - music and writing!

I spent yesterday taking pet portraits at the WCNA’s Festival by the Lake. My parents have been very active members since one of them founded the group and the festival was born in the late 1970s. As a kid a ran around that festival playing the kids’ games and sneaking hot dogs from the food booth. As a teenager I alternated between volunteering in the food tent, performing puppet shows for kids, and doing face painting. Cut to this year and I have this brilliant, (in my opinion), idea. The festival is great, and the dog show that happens as a result of everyone bringing out their good girls a ..read more

I had the great pleasure of doing a maternity shoot with Veronica a while back. Well, now the wait has ended and Maeve is here! Healthy and content and, I can tell, extremely smart.

In mid-April I was really excited about how my next two months were looking. The school year was wrapping up at Boston University where I work full time as a photographer, and with that end of year comes lots of fun events and festivities to photograph. For Cydney Scott Photography, I had booked more senior portrait sessions than any past seasons and I was so excited because I love them so much! Around this same time, I was walking around the BU campus and turned my ankle off a step I didn’t see, spraining my foot and chipping a bone on the top of my foot as well. I was out of commission and I ..read more

Ashley’s mom Kristen brought confetti. I mean, what more do you need than a pumped graduate-to-be and some confetti? Nothing, I say! So much fun! Congratulations, Ashley!

Olivia decided on Boston Common and the surrounding area for her session. I had a great time wandering on a beautiful Sunday (along with, apparently, everyone else in Boston!) with her and her mom. We explored into Beacon Hill as well, and finished our session back in the garden. Olivia is smart, chill, and flexible with all our wandering. An as you can see, she did a great job during her session. And shout out to all the parents, Olivia’s included, who help with my shoots. In this case, leaf sprinkling!
