Capture the Magic with Bruce Plotkin

Fall Weekends **New Dates Added By Popular Demand**

Anyone who has been to Lachat knows there’s a certain magic here-the golden light over rolling hills, meadows in bloom, and our historical barn standing against the sky. This fall, we invite you to step into that beauty and capture it with a family portrait session on the farm, all while supporting the farm.

We are especially grateful to our neighbor, Lachat Commission Member, and professional photographer Bruce Plotkin, who is generously coming out of retirement for a limited number of sessions as a fundraiser for the farm. Bruce’s artistry and deep connection to the farm will ensure your portraits reflect not just your family, but the unique spirit of this place. It’s a perfect chance to prepare for holiday cards, refresh the gallery wall at home, or simply hold on to this fleeting moment before the kids grow and change yet again.

Each session includes:

- A 30-minute photo shoot, with time for both portraits and candid moments.

- A private online gallery with beautiful images to choose from.

- Five high-resolution digital downloads, with the option to purchase additional downloads or prints.

And because this is a fundraiser, every portrait session directly supports the farm-helping us care for our animals, maintain our historic property, and continue offering educational and community programs that bring us all together.

About Bruce: Bruce Plotkin built a decades-long career as a successful commercial and editorial photographer before following in his father’s footsteps and turning his talents toward weddings, events, and family portraits. Before retiring a few years ago, he captured countless milestones and happy moments for local families. Today, Bruce stays busy by generously sharing his time and talents at Lachat, where his photographs for our Volunteer Spotlight series continue to showcase his gift for putting people at ease and capturing their true spirit in just a few clicks. We feel so fortunate to have Bruce behind the camera once again-and so grateful for his generosity, and yours, in supporting the farm through this special fundraiser.
