I have said it before and will say it again.  My silver lining of the pandemic has been discovering my love for outdoor newborn photo sessions.  Sometimes this means exploring a location, but for others it’s using a family’s yard. This family chose to use their yard here in Natick Massachusetts.  We started on their porch and […]
