Here is a of Chris’ from Thursday evening! We had a beautiful summer evening to shoot his senior session! Chris opted for the beach as his location. Which was a perfect choice!

I have been photographing Chris since he was 4 years old in PreK! Such a kind hearted soul,
always has been and still is. I honestly do not think I have ever seen Chris in a bad mood or not smiling! A true gem in this world. I just can’t believe he is now heading into his Senior year! Time has surely flown by.

Thank you for choosing J. Sophia Fotography to capture your high school senior portrait session, Chris, Dave & Ellen. It’s always such an honor to photograph any client, but to be able to photograph friends who have been clients for years and their kiddos is always the best compliment ever!! 🥰

It was definitely a hot & humid summer evening, but Jill didn’t let that stop her from smiling, with some amazing natural poses! Thank you for choosing JSophiaFotography to capture your high school senior portrait session. It’s always such an honor to photograph anyone but to friends is the best compliment ever!

Here is a gorgeous , Anna who graduated today from Hollis Brookline High School. 💙🤍 Anna is a beautiful soul! She is smart, focused and such a hard worker. She is kind, caring and such a blessing to everyone she meets!

Honestly I can not form the words again, about how I feel about not only Anna, but her entire family. So I chose to use some of words from my first post from her last summer.

I am always honored to photograph anyone who comes in front of my lens. But when family and friends who have become family ask me to photograph there families, and especially moments like their high school senior portraits, well bring me the box of tissues please! Always humbled and honored.

This is Anna, she is not only stunning as you can see here, she just as beautiful on the inside too!
She is as sweet as pie, and as tough as nails! She has such a natural beauty that illuminates a space she walks into, she is soft spoken (most of the time . . . hehehe), but I know her well enough to say I’ve seen those tough as nails moments, and not so soft spoken moments too. She is an amazing, thoughtful daughter (which honestly doesn’t fall far from the tree from her Momma & Daddo, because she was taught so well!) She is absolutely wonderful and loving big sister to two younger brothers. She is an fabulous dancer, a true friend and if you’ve had the chance to meet this darling young women, you’ve been blessed by an angel in your life!

Sweet, Anna - you made your Mom & Dad parents first. You are now graduating from high school first, and there will be so many more first for you! Just remember, they will always be your biggest fan, always know that. I now know you are staying near for college, but just remember to never loose your faith and what you’ve learned from these two special humans, and the foundation they have built for you!

Wherever you go, go with all your heart; be bold, be courageous, do your best and most of all follow your fears! For your fears, they are the only obstacles in this life, and if you go straight at them, you will move mountains, kiddo. There is no script in this journey we call life, so now is your time to start your story, Sweet Anna!
Behind you, all your memories . . . hold those dear,
Before you, all your dreams . . . dream big kiddo,
Around you, all who love you . . . we are all here to support you,
Within you, all you need . . . and to alway keep the faith.

Ana will be attending St. Anselm’s College in the Fall. Congratulations again kiddo, love ya so much! I’m not crying! 😭 xo, Jeni

Here is an adorable & handsome ,
but even more than he is handsome, he is a truly genuine & nice young man!

Will will be graduating today from Bishop Guertin High School. He is such a good hearted, kind and caring guy. Quiet most of the time, soft spoken, and always willing to lend a hand. Polite, kind and respectful to everyone he meets. He has such a great smile, and that grin that he gives is adorable, which you will see in his portraits. When he does smile, his eyes smile too, which is a gift! So make sure to share that gift, aka, “smile” with the world!

I have been lucky enough to have been able to photograph him through football, basketball, and many other activities at BG, but most of all I was given the privilege of photographing his Senior Portraits! 🥰 Very thankful to have met Will, and his entire family.

Will, as you keeping walking through this life, remember, “ Hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard.” - (Kevin Durant)

The BG Junior/Senior Prom 💚💛 has come and gone. My oldest attended his Junior Prom. I thank God everyday, for allowing me to be your Mom.
17 years old, Junior Year almost has commenced. My heart runneth over with so much pride, joy and happiness for the man you have become.

Watching so many of the Seniors attend Prom on Friday, and today go to their last day of High School is making me so emotional, and they’re not even my kiddos. Theo has met so many amazing friends at BG, and to watch them head into graduation is making me feel so many feels! 🥰 Hugs to all my friends who will be watching them walk the walk soon, and hugs to all the seniors that mean the world to us as well! “Behind you, all your memories. Before you, all your dreams. Around you, all who love you. Within you, all you need.”

Sharing some candids I took on Friday before the BG Prom. Not as many as I would normally take, as I promised my son, to stay in my lane and I would stand down a little with the photographs! 😝 (which I did!)

Just my thoughts as a Momma of five and my oldest who is heading into his Senior Year. Make it the best one yet! 💙

“. . . One day, I am helping your brush your teeth & tucking you into bed. Holding my hand, wherever we went. Watching endless, Curious George shows, Cars & Toy Story movies over, and over, and over again with you & your brother. Always keeping you safe in my arms, with my love and prayers.

I need a minute…💙

- Son, you looked up at me, and gave me that smile, I told you I loved you, and YOU lit up HIS world.
. . Then watching you play endless sports through the years, attending school, as you got older. Watching you always give your best. Watching you fail and pick yourself back up. Watching others fail you, and in those others failures, teaching you life’s hard lessons at such a young age. Which only made you stronger. Teaching you how to drive, both physically and your mental driven abilities and become the man you are today. Always pushing yourself to the next level. You have such a confidence about you. You are strong, capable, and dependable. You are the real deal my son.

Now, as I wait for you to come home from work, school, football, and this past weekend with prom not necessarily in my arms anymore but safe under my roof. These days passing by too quickly.

I need a minute 💙

- Son, now you look down at me, and give me that smile and HE now lights up MY whole world.

Follow those stars my son. Follow the signs. Follow your dreams. Follow your soul and your gut in everything you do! I can not wait to walk by your side throughout your upcoming senior year, and cherish every single moment with you.

Live like you will never grow old, laugh & love everyday, always stand up for what is right, even though it’s not the most popular thing to do! Walk away from any and all drama that surrounds you no matter how hard it may be, because your heart & mind will always be better for it, trust me! Always make the time for the people and things you hold dear to your heart. Play as hard as you work. Always take time to reflect, give yourself a break from life and value your time. Always remember God is with you, and so are we.

Keep us close, always my son. 💙 We love you now and forever, till the end of time.
M&D 😘
