It’s always fun to look back at the behind the scenes photos from the year.  This past year I was pregnant!  I photographed up until I was 37+ weeks pregnant.  The last month of my pregnancy I photographed  two engagement sessions, a family portrait session, a corporate event and the Buzz off Event at Gillette Stadium.  I ended my photographing pre baby with a bang!  I did not realize it at that time, but I was having contractions at the Buzz off Event. Thankfully I had asked Emily to tag along for the day as backup just in case.  I listened to my body and asked her to take over while I sat down and rested for a bit.  Good thing! 

I wanted to say thank you to Emily Leis, Lorna Stell and Jessica Occhipinti for your help this past year!!!  Thank you to all of my clients for a fantastic year!  Enjoy some action shots!

Xoxo, Jen Araya

I do miss my pregnant belly!

Caught you Jess!

The biggest group I had to corral.

Always lending a hand to the whole wedding party.

Trying to get out of the way.

Can’t believe I’m sharing this photo, but yes I do mean business when it comes to family portraits!  NEXT!

Yes sometimes I’m funny, pretty sure I was saying ‘be careful, don’t fall into the water.’

Thanks for letting me test out my lighting Emily.

Jess was a guest at her dear friends wedding that I photographed!

The only couple I photographed with this season.  I need to make this a mandatory photo at each wedding I photograph!
