This year, of the 20+ family portrait sessions I photographed, each and every family was a returning client. I don’t think there will ever be words to express the gratitude that comes with the support of this small business of mine. Ten years have passed since my first paid session, and the faces that chose me then are still choosing me now. For what it’s worth, I hope each of you know that with every email, every session scheduled, every new baby, every new milestone, every year that passes my appreciation grows right alongside the beautiful families you are raising. There is truly nothing be ..read more

2023 was my ninth year photographing weddings and there are days where I feel like my career has just begun. Doing this yearly recap is something that has always been a favorite task of mine. As the months go by, getting caught up in the chaos of weddings can be easy to do. Choosing the images to share when there have been thousands upon thousands taken, on the other hand, can be impossible. This year was no exception!! Looking through my hard drives, my eyes started to cross trying to organize a way to share SO MANY pictures that I love for one reason or another. And then a theme started taki ..read more

Today is Matt & Kayla’s wedding day!! I thought sharing their engagement session would be a fun way to celebrate! I’ve known Kayla since we first met seven years ago (she is the cousin of two past brides that I’ve had the privilege of photographing!!)…so when she emailed to say she was engaged and planning a wedding, my excitement was through the roof. Kayla and Matt are one of those couples that you know, within minutes of being in their company, will be together for decades to come. Our time together on a sunny summer night in Salem was simply beautiful, and a total teaser for what’s to ..read more

If you are looking for wedding content that is full of emotion, the type of joy that leaves you happy just by seeing the faces that created it, love that has been slowly growing and getting stronger for 10 years, a group of friends and family who have shown up to confidently celebrate two men willing and ready to say “this is forever”, a room filled with people who are free to be themselves, to dance their hearts out, and sing at the top of their lungs to one of the best playlists this photographer has ever heard….then look no further than Jeff & Orrin’s wedding day!! Love is love every da ..read more

Weddings are, among many other things, a lot of work. So many months of planning go into each and every detail…with decisions to be made at every turn. I think if John and Jillian were to imagine their perfect wedding day, what they ended up with was certainly in the “wildest dreams” category! From the moment the bright sun rose on this beautiful early summer day, a meaningful and somewhat magic celebration unfolded. John & Jillian have been together since they met five years ago. Countless stories were told from friends & family about how these two were so clearly meant to be from the ..read more

Mike & Cecelia are engaged!! I, for one, am so excited…not only because these two are totally meant for one another, but because I have known Mike since the day he was born Seeing my cousin fall in love and prepare to marry his best friend is pretty special. Since the day I met Cecelia, I had a really good feeling that forever would be in the works, and now here we are! We met up on a perfect spring night at Singing Beach in Manchester. This spot is near and dear to M&C as Mike proposed high on a rock overlooking the water last summer. Congratulations a hundred times you guys…I am so ..read more

There is truly nothing better than Spring in the city, especially when photographing a couple like Luke & Emma. We met up on a perfect night, and the flowers blooming totally matched the upbeat and sweet personalities of this cute couple. I loved hearing their story of how they met in college, and can’t wait for their wedding next April at the Beauport in Gloucester!! It’s going to be a good one, that’s for sure ..read more

I loved every moment of photographing Andrew & Rebecca’s wedding day. The details all tied together to highlight the love these two have for each other as well as for their respective families. From A&R getting ready at the same location (a very special family home by the seaside), to their first look (maybe the most emotional one I’ve seen!!), to their beautiful hand written vows, and on to a completely packed dance floor. So many pointed out the fact that Andrew & Rebecca have grown up together during their seven year relationship which started in college…and it truly shows. Thes ..read more

Over the past two Covid-all consuming years, I think most people can name a silver lining that highlights a positive in a world that appears full of negatives. For my family, skiing in the winter has continued to be one of those things. During a typical 2021 January day, me and my boys were on a chairlift watching the terrain park madness below. Music was blaring over this part of the mountain, and one song in particular caught our attention. Ozzy Osbourne and Elton John can do that, two totally different voices that somehow make perfect sense. The boys begged me to download the song before ou ..read more

Yesterday was one of those glorious fall days where a hint of summer lingers in the air. Mid September with a temperature reading closer to that of July. My children, eight and nine years old, eventually ended up with a crew of grade school friends running around the yard. The chaos of Nerf wars, popsicles, football, and loud laughter could be heard through the neighborhood. As I thought to myself “hold on to this memory right here, this is what life is all about”…it struck me. Struck me that when I was in second grade, my memories consisted of a very similar scene (minus the nerf!). And the o ..read more
