This adventurous and fun family session took place at beautiful Larz Anderson park in Brookline on the later side of the foliage season. On a chilly November morning nothing could stop this charming family from smiling, laughing and of course acting a little goofy. While kids were playing with antique bikes and cars, all I had to do is stand by and take some pictures :) Dear Ilya and Lida, thank you for choosing RaskinStudio for your family photography! It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from your memorable photo session!

Golden hour is the last hour of light before the sunset, which serves as the best backdrop for taking family portraits at any location. Needless to say, when I ended up at Arnold Arboretum park an hour before the sunset, with a beautiful family in front of me, I felt really fortunate. Kids had a lot of fun, smiling, chasing each other and taking turns riding a bike and posing for some pictures on an antique red toy car. Therefore, my job was really limited to observing and pressing the button on my cameras to capture this timeless images. Dear Edgar and Carrie, thank you very much for choosing RaskinStudio to capture your family portraits. It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from this Stylish and Adventurous photo session!

Stylish, Fun, Beautiful, Unforgettable, are just a few adjectives that come to mind when I am thinking about a memorable Bat Mitzvah that I got to document today. At the same time, the fact that I did a couple of family photo sessions for this beautiful family, and watched them grow over the years brings me some extra joy! We started out today with some traditional family formals by the Bima and smoothly transitioned into an unforgettable ceremony with songs, prayers, music and a little mysticism of the Jewish tradition that gets passed down from parents to kids through many generations. After the ceremony, it was time to party, and party people did!! It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images in this blog post as I work on the rest of the images from this memorable photo collection!

Perfect fall day was waiting for us at Larz Anderson Park!! Luckily, I was meeting a beautiful family which I was fortunate to photograph over the past couple of years. The only thing that can be better than taking pictures of kids, is watching them grow and flourish over the years. During this foliage session, we were lucky to catch a glimpse of pre-winter warmth as well as beautiful golden light!! All I really had to do is press the button on my camera to capture countless smiles and laughs.. Dear Maggie and James, thank you again for choosing RaskinStudio to capture your beautiful family. It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from this memorable session!!

Yesterday's adventurous and unforgettable wedding took me to two of the most magnificent photo locations around Boston area, Larz Anderson Park in Brookline and Hale Reservation in Westwood. We started out with casual and relaxed family formal and couples portraits and Larz Anderson, slowly making our way to Hale Reservation where a beautiful outdoors Ketubah and Huppah ceremonies have followed. In addition to everything, this beautiful couple received a great overcast weather, instead of rainy hurricane day, which made our photo session especially beautiful and picturesque. Dear Jie and Mikhail, congratulations again on a beautiful wedding and thank you for choosing RaskinStudio to help you document it. It is with great pleasure I am sharing a few sneak peak images from your adventurous wedding day!!

From magical golden lighting, to perfect overcast late afternoon weather, this beautiful adventurous and stylish outdoor session could not go wrong. Everybody was in great spirits, including two best behaved Collie family dogs which obediently followed their owners and were happy to pose and smile on demand. We started out with a few group images taking advantage of picturesque settings with late summer blooming flowers, and concluded with some individual images. Needless to say, this wonderful family just could not stop smiling :) I am very excited to share a few sneakpeak images in this blog post, as I am working on processing the rest of the images in the near future! 

Every May for the past 9 years, I am anxiously waiting to stop by and take some professional portraits for all participants at Henry Frost's Children's Program in Belmont. Needless to say, it is a day filled with pure happiness, excitement, countless smiles and colorful outfits. I am excited to watch kids from previous years grow, and turn into little geniuses, with polite manners and unique personalities. They are always well prepared for their annual portrait sessions, leading by example and demonstrating best photo poses to their classmates, who are new this year. I am happy to share a few sneak peak images in this blog post!!

To say that Sneha and Nilangshu's wedding photo session was amazing would be an equivalent to not saying much about this wedding at all!! This beautiful couple braved rain and cold to let the charm and charisma shine in their elegant and adventurous pictures that we captured at picturesque and mesmerizing Walden Pond right before the sunset. As we got to the pond, the clouds have parted, which allowed us to take some pictures at no other location than Henry Thoreau's house retreat, slowly making our way to the beach, where stillness and calm water reflection was waiting for us. Just when I thought that taking pictures at sunset was pretty magical, we made our way to Alden Castle venue in Brookline, where we continued to capture countless smiles, toasts, hugs and kisses, while taking in the charm of this antique castle. Dear Sneha and Nilangshu, thank you very much for choosing RaskinStudio to document your unforgettable wedding celebration!! It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from your memorable wedding day!!
