The North Bridge in Concord is a very popular, historical tourist attraction and It was on the North Bridge that the first day of battle of the American War of Independence took place in 1775. Nowadays, it's a peaceful and beautiful setting and a great place to visit and walk around.
It was photo day for the Tarantino family and we met on the North Bridge on a sunny Saturday afternoon.
A few weeks before their session, I had sent the family my style guide, which offers suggestions on what to wear for a family photo session. I knew as soon as we met that afternoon, it was going to be a successful shoot. They were really well coordinated, very relaxed and ready for their family photos.
Like many families in Sudbury and the surrounding towns, the Tarantino boys participate in many sports so their weekends get very busy. But we were lucky to find a slot in their sporting calendars to schedule a two hour photo session, which allowed plenty of opportunity to make use of many different spots in the park.
Like with many siblings, there is a healthy rivalry so I asked the boys who was the fastest runner. I suggested they have a race to see, who would win... But this one ended in a tie:
Towards the end of the photo session the sun had begun to set and the park had become much quieter, which allowed us to create a more dramatic, sporty look for both of the boys.
The Tarantino family were delighted with the way these photos turned out and I was grateful that they chose me to provide their photography and printing. They have now ordered their prints and they are looking forward to hanging them on their walls.
