Timeless Newborn, Maternity and Family Photography in Andover, MA
Hi, I’m Kate McKenna, the photographer, artist, and dedicated wrangler of tiny humans behind Crabapple Photography. Since opening my boutique photography studio in 2009, I have specialized in luxury newborn, maternity, baby, toddler, and family photography, capturing everything from sleepy newborn yawns to shy toddlers finding their confidence one smile at a time. I have had the joy of photographing more than a thousand families from Boston, the North Shore, Southern New Hampshire, and even Maine. Visit my blog for helpful tips and stories about portrait photography.
Sixteen Years of Experience, and a Little Chaos
In 2013, my life changed forever when I became mom to twins. They turned my world upside down in the best possible way and gave me superpowers like multitasking and the ability to survive on very little sleep. Becoming a working mom made me a better photographer because it taught me the art of waiting. I’ve learned to slow down and anticipate the moment. I never rush a shy toddler or a sleepy newborn. Some of the most magical shots happen when we simply give them time. [Read more about me here!]
In 2017, I moved my studio from Medford to my current cozy, fully stocked space in Andover. It is a place where creativity and baby giggles collide. Families from Greater Boston including Cambridge, Somerville, Arlington, and beyond come here for portraits that are as timeless as they are a little bit magical.
Your Exclusive Newborn and Family Photography Experience
I take on a limited number of clients to provide a custom, white-glove experience because you deserve that kind of attention. And because let’s be honest, wrangling babies and toddlers takes focus. My team and I are with you every step of the way. We make sure your session is smooth, stress-free, and yes, even fun!
Whether you are celebrating your first pregnancy, welcoming a new baby, or gathering your whole crew for family portraits, I am here to help you create images you will love forever.
