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!

Behind the scenes :)

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!!

What can be a better thing to do for your third birthday, than to capture some beautiful fall images at picturesque Larz Anderson Park in Brookline. This was our 3rd photo session with this family, and everyone was dressed and ready for endless smiles and laughs. This was literally a walk in the park, where we got to take advantage of warm foliage weather and great natural lighting. Dear Liz and Alex, thank you for choosing RaskinStudio to document your beautiful family! It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few images from this unforgettable photo session.

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!!

All I can say is "cuteness overload" when I think about a beautiful foliage outdoor family session that I got to capture at picturesque Wellesley College campus!! The weather Gods smiled at us last Sunday, and we really got to enjoy what could be the last warm day of this past foliage season!! And in no way did it disappoint!! Baby Q. was serious, yet composed and really did not mind posing for over an hour and a half, which is really a record for a six month old child :) We did a good amount of walking around, taking some pictures with foliage backdrop, by the stone bridge and the library facade. Smiling parents, happy kids and beautiful warm weather, what more can a photographer ask for? Dear Katie and Pete, thank you very much for choosing RaskinStudio to capture your family pictures! It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from your fun outdoor session!

I knew that my retro red bike will be a hit with the kids, and getting them to share was a bit of a challenge. Baby M. and baby G. were politely taking turns riding it around beautiful Wellesley College campus, that is until big boy (also known as dad) Ilya decided to show everyone how it really should be done :) Putting the bike sharing moments aside, I really feel that we lucked out with the weather and fully took advantage of the foliage settings before the cold weather set in. Having a cloudy warm overcast day at the end of October, is really a treat for me as a photographer as well as the families involved in a family photo session :) Needless to say everyone had a good time, and I was able to take advantage of a perfect opportunity to capture countless smiles, hugs and candid moments :) Dear Lida and Ilya, thank you very much for choosing RaskinStudio to document your family this fall. It is with great pleasure I would like to share a couple of sneak peak images from your memorable session!

When foliage season comes to New England in full swing, Wellesley College campus turns into a magnificent backdrop for family photo sessions, and this cloudy warm day did not disappoint. It was a special treat, as I got to catch up with baby M. after our first session almost a year ago to the date. It was great catching him smile, laugh and enjoy beautiful colorful leaves on the trees and on the ground. This made me reminiscence and yet again remember what being kid is all about :) Dear Maggie and James, thank you very much for choosing RaskinStudio to capture these memorable moments. It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from this fun outdoor foliage photo session!

When life sends you lemons, use them to make some awesome lemonade, which is what we did when our original photo session date at beautiful Welleley College Campus got rained out. We rescheduled for the next non-rainy day, and it definitely did not disappoint. Braving some chilly morning weather, we were able to take advantage of the morning "golden hour" in addition to close to peak foliage conditions. What else can a photographer wish during a fall session in New England!! Needless to say that baby J. was all smiles, which just made the whole session into a small and fun filled adventure :) Dear Elizabeth and Alex, thank you very much for choosing RaskinStudio to document your beautiful family second year in a row! It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from your colorful and stylish family session.

I got lucky today, since perfect outdoors photo weather was on hand to go along with a perfect outdoors wedding that started out with an elegant and adventurous portrait session at Larz Anderson Park in Brookline, and continued with an intimate celebration on a cruise boat leaving from CambridgeSide Galleria. This couple had everything starting with a great sense of humor, warmth and charisma, which made documenting their big day an easy going photo and a beautiful photo experience. Dear Christina and Eran, thank you again for choosing RaskinStudio to document your memorable wedding day. I am excited to share a few sneak peak images with you in this post.
