I randomly found this place on the meetup site. http://photo.meetup.com/52…read more Basically, it's a group of local photographers (professional and the not-so-professional, like me) that meet up on a monthly basis to talk about various photo topics. Also on the meetup site, you can share your thoughts/question regarding photography on the message boards, and check out others' works! They also have various "click-and-shoot" outings. I went to the one going to Rockport a little while ago, it was fun. Check it out! http://www.bostonphotographycenter.com/

I took a class with Suzanne Merritt when I was visiting Boston and had a fantastic time. I learned…read morehow to take my camera off automatic and actually learn how to use my camera. Suzanne has a real gift for explaining things and was extremely patient. The workshop was so much fun. We got handouts that I now keep in my camera bag for easy reference. We were given assignments and instructions before each activity. We had time then to practice then gather back as a group. After the class we went for coffee and had an opportunity to share our photos and get feedback from Suzanne. It was the best photography class I've ever had. I can't wait to take another when I return to Boston. I highly recommend the Curious Soul Photo School!

Susannah was the perfect photographer for our son's nine month photoshoot. This was our first baby…read moreand first photoshoot aside from our wedding and it was absolutely perfect. Susannah met us in the morning to accommodate his nap schedule, which we appreciate deeply. While he was a bit overwhelmed by the sights and sounds of the park in the morning we got some fun and serious photos. Susannah brought some toys that make noise to get the baby's attention and the novelty of them caught our son's attention better than toys from home. The bubble machine was also a nice touch. Overall she offers high quality service (photoshoot and editing) at a fair cost with a ton of flexibility. We will use her again if we choose to have another photoshoot. They grow so fast, it's great to have it documented in a professional way. 10/10 worth it!
