2021: The Year of Your Stories

As a Boston Family Photographer, I meet a lot of new people throughout the year. We email, chat by phone, and then meet in person for our photo sessions.

And let’s not forget the accomplishments, sibling rivalry, pet antics and more! Read on to see some of my favorite images from 2021… the Year of Your Stories.

(or, in the last year, who made time to play babysitter over zoom when I needed it most!)
