Documenting transition; onto big amazing adventures
Congratulations Anthony!
Anthony is a star student at Tantasqua, and an avid sports enthusiast. His family was beaming with pride the entire session, gushing about his accomplishments and the kind of son and brother he is. I only had about 1.5 hours with Anthony personally, but man was he such a gentleman. I absolutely love this part of my job... hearing these young kids full of hope and promise and dreams... and how they beam with hope for things the come, hearing their plans to take on the world... or how they are honestly still searching for themselves and their purpose. 18 is a big wonderful age, the world looks exciting and scary all at once, and being able to give my clients a confidence boost, to see themselves as incredible amazing adults... lights not only them but me up.
Saint Joseph's Abbey, Spencer MA
If you haven't seen this location in person, it is worth the drive. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and they encourage locals to enjoy the grounds. Sunset there is what golden hour dreams are made of. I have even caught sight of some local wildlife during sessions; rabbits and deer love making guest appearances and photobombing every now and then. During the autumn you can catch some breathtaking foliage views, which in part makes this location a favorite for seniors and families. The landscaping offers a variety backdrops, from the grey stone church, the rustic wood fences, large open fields, and manicured flower beds and bushes. As you'll see in this gallery and many of my others, this location is glorious.
