Bring to Light Photography Blog bio picture
  • Well Hello There!

    Welcome to the Bring to Light Photography blog. I'm Taslim, a Boston-based photographer creating portraits of newborn babies, children and families throughout New England. My hope is that clients, photographers, friends and family can drop by and see a little of what I've been up to. This blog will follow my personal and professional life featuring images from sessions and events that I shoot, places that I visit, and the things I see and experience living in the city.

    I encourage you to visit my website or to email me for more info using the contact form above. My style is fresh & simple, and I'd love to work personally with your family to capture portraits that are fresh, real and most importantly you.

Back from Vacation

Hello! I’ve just returned from a wonderful vacation cruising in the Mediterranean, and I’m getting settled back into ‘real life’. I am booking portrait sessions including in-home newborn sessions, senior portraits, children and baby photography and of course family portraits thru the Summer and Fall.

I can’t wait to share my favorite photos from my trip (I haven’t even looked at all of them yet!), but until then, here is one colorful abode on the Venetian island of Burano. Despite the rainy weather we had for a couple days, the houses were still cheery :)

Meet another one of my adorable clients, Reece. I met little R when he was just over a week old and found out he loved to be held and swaddled up nice and toasty. He also loved his cute little brown and blue hat hand-knit by Grandma with love.

This family portrait is actually one of the ‘outtakes’ but quickly became a favorite. I just love how Allyson and Eric are looking at each other. With a new baby they have their hands full for sure :)

He was so comfortable snuggled up to mommy’s chest

Look at that cute little smile!

Allyson and Eric, thank you for sharing your little boy with me!

Beautiful Baby Girl | Boston Newborn Photography

Its a hazard of the job to fall in love with all the snugly new babies I get to photograph! Little Kiera was no exception. I was so thrilled to photograph a baby girl as I got to break out my pink and purple hats and all the little girly accessories I add to newborn portraits. Kiera started out sleeping but didn’t want to miss out on the action and ended up staying awake for the last half of the session. She was so content just looking at me while I was photographing her and I was amazed by the eye contact I got from her. Incredible for a baby just days old!

Here are a few of my favorites from our session. Thank you M, your daughter is just precious!

Boston Maternity Portrait Photographer | Sara

I am so behind on my blogging! I’ve been post procrastinating because my comments section wasn’t working properly, and I wanted to work that out because I *love* getting blog comments. But now its fixed! So do say hello, don’t be shy :)

On to the goods. Sharing another beautiful mommy-to-be! I did Sara’s session a little earlier than I typically do maternity sessions, but since she was such a skinny little thing she was showing quite nicely. Its amazing that each woman carries her baby differently, so even if its just a belly shot, like this one, you can still see how your pregnant form is unique. Plus it never hurts to have some bling and animal prints in there ;)

And you can see from the rest of these images that Sara is stunning and we had a wonderful pregnancy portrait session.

We incorporated her tattoo ‘a ma vie de coer entier’ which is French for ‘you have my whole heart for my whole life’ and is engraved on a locket that her husband gave her for their wedding.


And this shot is my very favorite from the session:

Thanks Sara for a fantastic session and I hope to meet your baby girl soon :)

Remember Denise’s maternity portraits? I’m so excited to share images of her new son, Kai, isn’t he adorable? I got so excited when I met him and discovered he had all that beautiful hair!

I love capturing newborn babies in their home, so mom and dad can relax a bit and not worry about leaving the house so soon. Some of my favorites from our newborn session:

Cozy and content

Love those bitty baby yawns!
