Jackie and Brad ~ Starting their Family

It seems as though it was a hundred years ago when I first met Jackie and Brad to photograph their engagement session at Fenway Park. We went on one of the tours that the park offers to all of Red Sox Nation, including backstage passes to the .406 Club, the Green Monster and we were even close enough to snag some dirt from the field..

Brad and Jackie had my heart from the minute they arrived wearing Red Sox Jerseys! When it comes to great photographs, creativity is key! (playing baseball on Landsdown Street made for some great photos!!!)

Since our trip to Fenway Park, Jackie and Brad have tied the knot, welcomed Rookie into their lives, travelled the world, welcomed three new nieces and nephews to their family, spent summers in NH among hundreds of other adventures. The Red Sox have even won two world series!

I love that I have been able to share in so many of their experiences....they are truly wonderful people, and two of the greatest friends I could have ever asked for!

When Jackie emailed me back in December that she and Brad were finally expecting their first child, I was beyond thrilled for them... I could not wait to do some belly photos!

I wanted to make sure that we included Rookie in some very important photos as soon she will be sharing her parents with a baby!


Queen of the house... for now!




It seems as though the day we selected was a little chilly... and a lot windy... but we headed over to Castle Island in South Boston for our first location...







The beautiful Jackie...






You can't go to Castle Island without a sweet treat from Sully's!



Then we headed over to The Dorchester Heights Monument for a couple of quickie pics..






I grabbed one last quick photo right before we had dinner at 224 which is where Jackie and Brad went on their second date... many years ago!




Jackie and Brad, I cannot thank you enough for everything you and your families have done for me. Your friendship means more to me than you could ever imagine... You are going to be the worlds best parents! I Love you!
