The Burke Family contacted me this past summer for a senior portrait of their daughter Rachel and a few family photos while they were here on Nantucket. Rachel wanted a simple and relaxed session. I instantly thought of Sconset for her senior portrait. August in Sconset is absolutely beautiful. The gardens surrounding the cottages are all blooming. Makes for a stunning backdrop for a beautiful girl. Not only does Sconset have beautiful gardens, but it also has a lot of quaint little spots and a stunning beach. It’s also quiet and peaceful, it feels as if no one is around. We walked along the cottages stopping at all the beautiful gardens we saw. We then all strolled to the iconic Sconset bridge where we began to take photos of the family and their sweet pup. I love it when my clients bring their dogs along for the shoot. Makes for some fun photos. They too are a big part of the family. As the sun was starting to gown down, we then headed to the beach where we finished the session. We then said our goodbyes and they were off to a lovely dinner in town. I had such a great time with this family. They were so sweet and kind and it was lovely being able to talk with them throughout their session.
