Brookline Main Library – 10 yrs of Boston Baby Photos by Jessica McDaniel

May 2, 2014 - June 1, 2014

Free

Jessica McDaniel is a respected children’s photographer with a natural style, connecting with children often literally down at their level.

The gallery show celebrates 10 years of McDaniel’s work as a baby photographer, whose specialty is capturing warm, natural and spontaneous family moments. This show highlights her black and white photography, allowing the photos and the light to tell the story, from parents marveling at their newborn to a just-sitting-up-baby examining her tummy to toddler siblings giggling at each others’ antics. The gallery show is curated into ten thematic categories and features 100 photos. It has been traveling to local libraries for a year and ends with this show at the Public Library of Brookline. Over $3,500 was raised for the Jimmy Fund at the Gala event.

“Planning this show has been such a labor of love; it was a matter of digging through thousands of families’ photo shoots from the last decade, considering them as part of a body of work… by far the best part was remembering all these families having fun together,” said McDaniel, who photographs 160-180 families a year throughout the greater Boston area (www.boston-baby-photos.com/).  “I love that each family has a different story to tell. I know how important it is to tell (and show) these stories in my photos.”

May 2 – June 1, 2014

Closing reception: Sunday, June 1, 1-3 p.m.
