Little Guys on the Go!||Lincoln, MA Family Photography

At the beginning of this session, when these two cutie pies were still getting a sense of what was going on and who this goofy lady with the camera and a stuffed lion on her head was all about, we got a few shots of them sitting still.

It didn't hurt that they were entirely outnumbered: five full sized humans encouraging them to sit for just another shot or two :-)

And then, their grandparents, visiting from warm Texas, needed to go inside to fight off the fall chill. Which left myself and Chase and Carter's parents to try and keep up with their adventures.... exploring the garden, finding beautiful leaves, following the wild turkeys, wandering far, far, far down their quiet street....Every once in awhile their parents grabbed them up, while I captured the delight and.... skepticism....And just before heading inside, this lovely momma caught her baby for a sneaky smooch.

Such a joy to help you all get your holiday photos done!  Thank you for choosing me as your photographer :-)

With love,

Ceilidh

Late Autumn Hugs||Arlington MA Family Photography

The colder it is, the more essential the photo shoot snuggles..... although this family is pretty affectionate with one another and I'm pretty sure we would have gotten some great shots even without all the chilly fall wind encouraging closeness.Not only were we contending with the bitter wind, the clouds were having a field day keeping the sun from warming us up = group hugs!We did get one little peek of sunlight, which felt as fortuitous as all the kiddos holding hands *at the same time* in the shot below. Each of these characters had a few solo shots taken, which allowed me to hear about the amazing variety of their imaginings - each one shared with me their ideas of what the red leaves looked like (and I got four different answers! Now - with "busy season brain" don't ask me what they all were cause that info is no longer in my head!) The photo below is my new favorite sibling shot - I lucked out with these cuties!Thank you all for braving that chilly day - I think we did a pretty awesome job of making the best of it!  

Love,

Ceilidh

2016 Fall Mini Sessions! ||Boston Child & Family Photography

This fall's mini sessions brought a few new faces, and many familiar ones, who braved some fierce wind and chilly weather. The cooler the weather, the more essential the snuggling - which, in my opinion, is never a bad thing (to clarify: snuggling is always fabulous, chilly weather can decidedly be kind of a bummer). From snazzy dressed boys who claimed to be lawyers, to crazy winds that threatened everyone with long hair, to a tree stump covered in crazy orange mushrooms (nicknamed the "Trump Stump") this year's mini sessions brought many new superlatives.... including a rescheduling record of no less than 3 different dates due to the hurricane induced rain.One of the cuties below I've been photographing every year since he was a year old and the little miss in pigtails I last saw when she was ten days old. It makes me so very happy to see these kiddos grow bigger, sassier, silly and more talkative....Little goofballs, toddling twins, and mini-movie stars all showed up for their photos.Sun-kissed and snuggly is the way to go, if the opportunity arises.... 

To all the families that joined me this year - it's such a joy to help you get your holiday season started!

Thank you for taking part.

With love & gratitude,

Ceilidh

Connor's Cuteness||Dedham, MA Newborn & Family Photography

Here's baby Connor! A-not-so-tiny newborn with an adorable sleepy smile and the best little newborn hair whorl I've ever had the honor of photographing.

A few years ago, I took his sister's newborn photos. Now, Miss Hailey is the big kid - three years old, and settling in to her new role as big sister. Let's just say she's embracing her new role with a LOT of energy. And incredible story-telling skills! (she needed a break during the session, and it involved spinning quite a tale for myself and her parents). As for their parents? They stayed impressively calm and collected during the various photo session shenanigans. Ages 2-4 tend to be the hardest to photograph, and when parents get (understandably) stressed about how the session is going, it tends to just rev the kids up more. But these two embraced the chaos, and we ended up with some pretty cute - yet realistic! - moments captured.

Congrats on becoming a family of four!

Fondly,

Ceilidh

Siddharth||Brookline MA Newborn & Family Photography

Siddharth is here! Sweet Sid, an itty-bitty peanut of a babe, was only about 6 lbs at the time of his photo session.

While most newborns I photograph have a bit of soft baby "fur" his amma (momma) noted that she had possibly given birth to a little wolf cub. I'll admit that he is one of furriest little guys I've ever seen!  His full head of hair is enviable , and his eyebrows basically blend into his hairline! 

Sid joins his darling big sister, the adorable and hilarious Ananya. At 2.5, she is amazingly curious, talkative and silly. While Sid took a snack break with his amma, Ananya was happy to model for me.Family photos with a newborn and a toddler are challenging to say the least. Sid decidedly looks concerned about the entire situation here, while Ananya finds something hilarious. Could be the beginning of a childhood long pattern, perhaps!! Sid's amma & appa couldn't be more smitten with their tiny bundle.“There are many things, I’m sure, without which we could not live…but love is the only one I can think of.”  - Leigh Standley

To this darling growing family - it was such a joy to meet you! I'm so happy I was on hand to capture this early time as a family of four for you all!
