1I had shot this particular location several years ago but somehow had never returned until this past weekend. The skies were heavy with clouds and rain – necessitating some extra lighting in certain areas. But what a wonderful place for a photography session.
The terminal area dates back to the World War II era and was heavily bombed during the Winter War. Several crates exist in the area around the terminal and it was rebuilt several times until finally being abandoned in the early 1990s.
I used my long lens for the shoot to compress the background and make a long platform seem much smaller and cozier. And occasionally brought in a speedlight to lift shadows and bring further subject focus.





1I’ve had a lot of requests to do sessions in Boston and it is with pleasure that I announce the date and special prices (nearly half off my regular prices!).
8:00 to 12:00 noon Saturday, November 13.
I will be doing full and mini sessions at Cummings Park, near Burlington in Northern Boston.
$250 mini session (15 minutes only) for 5 full resolution digital images. No more than 5 family members (including pets!). This is ideal for those looking for professional Christmas card images.
Or a full session of 10-15 full resolution images (1 hour shoot) for $500 for any number of immediate family members (parents and children).
The shoot location will be Cummings Park near Burlington area. All session times are booked when payment is received, on a first come-first served basis.
