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.

Even though the day started out with a bad weather forecast, it quickly turned into an amazing wedding celebration!!! We met up with this beautiful couple at picturesque LongWharf area by Boston Harbor and New England Aquarium. We brought umbrellas just in case, but countless smiles and laughs kept the rain away just enough for us to finish the couples pictures and proceed to the Lexington Cruise Ship (operated by Charles Riverboat Company). The rain has passed during a beautiful ceremony and we were rewarded by amazing overcast clouds right before sunset!! Needless to say, we could not miss an opportunity to capture such a majestic backdrop setting!! Once the ceremony and dinner was served, everyone enjoyed a beautiful night of dancing and celebration. Dear Adriana and Luke, congratulations again on a beautiful wedding!! It is with great pleasure I would like to share a few sneak peak images from your unforgettable and adventurous wedding!

From the second I set foot into the door, I knew that this wedding reception is going to have it all. The tropical downpour outside was over, and this beautiful couple was ready to party. We quickly went through some awesome outdoors couples pictures, took pictures of close friends and family members and moved onto an evening full of music, dancing, toasts, countless laughs, hugs and kisses. Dear Olya and Bilal, congratulations again on a fun and beautiful wedding!! I am very excited to share a few sneak peak images with you in this blog post!!

To say that this Fun and Stylish Bar Mitzvah celebration was just fun, would be an understatement!! Prior to having a beautiful Bar Mitzvah ceremony for their two sons at Harvard Hillel, I met the whole family for a casual lifestyle portrait session next to Harvard Business School. The weather was beautiful and as a result we were rewarded with some classic and candid style portraits as we walked around, slowly making our way to Harvard Hillel. We proceeded with taking some more formal pictures with extended family outside of Harvard Hillel, and I am happy to say that everyone was all smiles and ready for pictures. The ceremony itself was beautiful and took place on the second floor of Hillel house. Dear Lori and Ben, congratulations again on a beautiful Bar Mitzvah of your sons and thank you very much for choosing RaskinStudio to document such a memorable event. I am very excited to share a few sneak peak images from this unforgettable day in this blog post.

What a Stylish an Unforgettable wedding I got to document on Sunday!! This beautiful and memorable wedding really had it all, from a getting ready session at Sefora at Chestnut Hill, to continuation of a getting ready part of the wedding in Newton, with colorful spring first look session at picturesque Larz Anderson Park in Brookline, and last but not list a big celebration with Huppah and friends and family at Temple Emeth in Chestnut Hill. I did not get a chance to blink, and almost 12 hours after the celebration began I had a collection of memory cards with a few thousand of precious moments on them that I got to capture. Dear Sharona and Joseph, Mazel Tov!! I wish you lots of love and happiness and to continue being as organized as you were on your wedding day!! It is my great pleasure to share a few sneak peak images from your unforgettable wedding!!

Time flies when you are having fun, and I cannot believe that this is the 7th year that I get to photograph members of this beautiful school community at Henry Frost Children's Program in Belmont. All members of this program had huge smiles and were ready to demo their big personalities as soon as I walked through the front door. We started out with a few indoors formal pictures and quickly moved out to the outdoors playground, where everyone got to run around and enjoy a beautiful sunny days. It is with great pleasure that I would like to share some sneak peak images from this fun and happy photo session!
