Lindsay, Derek and finally Rex make three….

This blog post has taken me too long. I have been neglecting my blog terribly. I have actually been so excited to post these images because I LOVED these sessions. Lindsay and Derek are such a cool couple. For real. They are completely beautiful, fun and have such interesting backgrounds. Derek is a musician and Lindsay is an owner at a beautiful boutique store in Marblehead called Bobbles & Lace.  She used to model and with one look you can see why.

They chose my belly to baby package (love when clients do this!) and the maternity session was like a dream come true with the light, their personalities and the fun we had.  Then their beautiful boy Rex came along and I was so excited to meet him too.  Poor Lindsay wasn’t feeling well the day we photographed and we actually ended  early so she could see the doctor.  In the meantime, we captured some sweet little expressions from Rex, daddy playing the harmonica to him to soothe him and Rex letting me put some fun hats on him.

Thank you to Lindsay, Derek and Rex.  I can’t wait to see more of Rex’s smiley face soon!

  • About Jennifer Shore Photography

  • As long as I can remember, I have loved being connected to kids. I always knew that I would have a life working with children in some form. Since my other big interest has been human behavior, I ended up with a formal education in Child Development / Family Relations and a master's degree in clinical social work. As a school therapist for children with emotional and behavioral special needs, it was still possible for me to see beauty in even the most difficult and disturbed child. Luckily right around the time I was doing this work, I was also exploring my other favorite interest, photography.

    One day I decided to bring a camera into work. The results were amazing. The children loved to see themselves in photographs and I LOVED to take pictures of them. With the help of my photography teacher and best friend, photographer Andrew Xenios, I ended up having an exhibition of the kids I worked with. The pictures seemed to capture the essence of each person; even the most troubled child was still beautiful. From there, it was just a natural progression to become a portrait photographer.

    The fact that I am just a big kid myself has helped me gain a wonderful perspective on children and their families. Photographing children provides me with the opportunity to show others the joy I see inside every one of them. This is what I want for my clients, to capture the moments when they feel most childlike, most at ease; as these are the moments when our true beauty is revealed.
