Boston Family Photographer ~ Sneak Peeks from Early Summer Session at Larz Anderson Park Brookline MA

We had a gorgeous night over at Larz Anderson Park this week for this multi-generational Family Session while the grandparents were in town for a visit. This was my first time shooting at this location so I headed in early to have time to walk the area and assess the light and backdrops. As you can see from these few sneak peeks, we found endless picturesque spots on our loop from the stone gazebo with the water reflections to a small meadow of vibrant buttercups. And we of course held the buttercups under our chins to see if there was a yellow reflection to see who liked butter! 😉

Fun fact: The real reason these flowers seem to shine with an intense glittering yellow has nothing to do with butter but about advertising the plants to insect pollinators from a great distance.

“Buttercups, bright eyed and bold, hold their chalices of gold to catch the sunshine and the dew.”
