Kidding Around Cover Jan/Feb 2012 [children's portraits North Attleboro, MA]

I had the privilege of photographing the Kidding Around Cover Contest winner for the Jan/Feb edition.  It’s out in distribution today and the cover looks great!  I love the image they picked, it’s so fun and it really shows of Adison’s personality.  Here’s the cover and here are a couple of other favorites from the photo shoot.  Be sure to pick up a copy of Kidding Around at any of the local business that carry the paper!

Fall Portraits – What to Wear [fall family and childrens portraits, north attleboro, MA]

What should we wear for our portrait session?  That is the most common question I am asked before every portrait session so I thought I would put together some suggestions.  Check out the family portrait below!  This is a family portrait from last fall where I just loved the clothing they selected.  I know most people tend to want to do all matching outfits but I wanted to show an example of how beautiful coordinating colors (that don’t match exactly) look.  I have also added some suggestions below from items that are in stores now.  You do not need to go out and buy these exact outfits if you have an upcoming session.  This is meant to act as inspiration and give you some ideas on what you might like for your family portraits.  Please feel free to contact me for any questions you have regarding clothing selection before you session.

October is my busiest month of the year for portrait sessions, especailly outdoor sessions.  My waterfront location is beautiful with the changing fall colors and is the perfect backdrop for children or family portraits.  Limited location session times are available too if you prefer to do your session at your own home or at a local park or other location.  There are only 2 open times left on the weekends in October.  I do have several weekday times open so call (508-699-5862) or email (kbarker@barkerphoto.com) me as soon as possible to schedule your session time.
