Margaret Belanger Photography | Falmouth Cape Cod Family Session, The M Family

Falmouth Cape Cod Family Session, The M Family

It just doesn’t get any better than everyone looking at the camera! And smiling! I didn’t even have to swap any heads. I met up with this family down on the beach in Falmouth for their Cape Cod family session. It’s always fun to snag the perfect family portrait, but it’s also fun to snag…

Margaret Belanger Photography | Amherst New Hampshire Outdoor Newborn Session, Baby C

Amherst New Hampshire Outdoor Newborn Session, Baby C

Another outdoor newborn session! To be fair, we began photographing the family inside the house, but then we spent most of the session outside. For this session, I traveled north to New Hampshire (which around here is less than an hour away).  The jump from one child to two is never easy, but mom was…

Boston Branding Session, DJ Edition

When I first met Kim Collins, she was a DJ at Eagle 93.7 where I interned. She had a weekend shift, so we didn’t overlap much at the studio, but we occasionally worked events together. I particularly remember working the Marshfield Fair with her. Oh, the weird things that stick in your brain. We lost…

Margaret Belanger Photography | Falmouth Cape Cod Family Session

Falmouth Cape Cod Family Session

Most of my sessions take place right in the Boston area, but every once in a while, I get a request to travel. The summer time around here means Cape Cod. This little family invited me down to Falmouth to photograph their family. We had the perfect evening light and a deserted beach. I worked…

Margaret Belanger Photography | Boston Branding Session, Fashion Stylist Edition at the Boston Public Garden

Boston Branding Session, Fashion Stylist Edition at the Boston Public Garden

When I first met Annette, I was probably wearing pigtails and oversized jeans and a giant Eagle 93.7 t-shirt. And somehow, we ended up friends! Both of us interned at Eagle 93.7 (RIP) and Mix 98.5 over the summer of 1997. She was way cooler than I was (as were most people). She had an…

Winchester Backyard Newborn Session, Baby Q

When you just moved into your new house and your nursery isn’t decorated yet, or when there’s a global pandemic, outdoor newborn sessions are a great alternative. This little cutie was less than two weeks old when I photographed him. Look at that fuzzy baby hair! Even the family dog joined the session. Babies are…

Boston At-Home Fresh 48 Newborn Session, Baby T

When it’s not possible to get to the hospital for a Fresh 48 session, we can arrange for an at-home Fresh 48 session. I communicated with mom right up until Baby T arrived and we decided to wait until they were home from the hospital to do their session. Often, these little babies are only…

Waterville Valley Engagement Session, Amanda & Devin

Even though Amanda and Devin went to college together, they didn’t actually connect until after graduation. They both joined a program for recent graduates to teach English in Bangkok. While in Thailand, they started dating. It makes sense that their relationship began in the midst of an adventure! These two love to travel and ski…

St. Elizabeth’s Brighton Fresh 48 Session, Baby Q

Even though these Fresh 48 sessions only last about an hour, and even though they take place in rather bland hospital rooms, every single one of them is unique. This Fresh 48 newborn session took place at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in Brighton. I love that the pad on the bed is a foamy aqua color…

Extended family photo with grandparents, kids, their spouses, and the grandkids.

Minute Man National Park Family Session, The D Family

I met this family when two of the kids posed for Halloween costume photos during the Halloween Horribles parade in Winchester. I had a photo booth set-up in Winchester Town Hall where families could stop and show off their costumes. A few weeks later, I met the whole extended family for a fall photo session…
