Watch them grow! Baby Robert was only 7 days old when we took his newborn photos. As part of his baby’s first year package we met up for his 6-month pictures and made sure to get some Exeter NH family photos too 🙂 His fuzzy head makes me smile from the bottom of my heart. Older …
Are you ready for the sweetest, most low-key, NH backyard wedding? Steph is the niece of my most excellent hairdresser Dori at Sapphire Salon. When Steph & Viet announced their engagement, they were just going to do something small down in their hometown a few states away. After the initial excitement of the news, the …
The parents of these two lovely ladies contacted me about NH Senior Yearbook Photos for their wonderfully accomplished children. Â I’ve photographed each of them as part of their family multiple times before and never quite put together that they would both head off on non-high school adventures at the same time. Â I have a feeling …
Sweet sweet baby J! He spent an extra 12 days bulking up for the real world and tipped the scales at 10lbs 6oz for his big arrival.  That’s all the more sweetness to love!  We had a wonderful time cooing and cuddling at his at home newborn session. He was wide awake and ready to …

When they reached out to me about their Wentworth by the Sea wedding they were a little nervous about how much they DIDN’T love being photographed. We chatted back and forth and I assured them that I make …
Sometimes things happen for a reason. (I actually think most of the time things happen for a reason) In this instance, Kathryn, Andrew & I were supposed to meet in Portsmouth on Pierce Island for our photo rendezvoux when we realized that the Spanish tall ship El Galeon Andalucia was sailing into Portsmouth and docking at Pierce …
These are the emails that excite me the most: 25 months in advance of their wedding, I received this inquiry from Jen. “We are having an afternoon wedding at Portsmouth Country Club. I know it’s far in advance but having looked at your photos, I don’t want to miss out on the opportunity!” We met …
After an amazingly perfect Exeter fall engagement session I was already amped up for Courtney & Colby’s summer wedding at the Exeter Inn. Check out these ridiculously romantically soft and gorgeous flowers designed by one of my favorites – Jessica at Cymbidium Florals. Her work is always stunning and Courtney & Colby’s florals were no exception. …
When I blogged about their cozy winter Newmarket engagement shoot, I left off with the line “I cannot WAIT to see how their love explodes in summer!” And their Four Tree Island Summer Wedding did NOT disappoint. It was a perfectly planned affair with the most well executed “backyard picnic” theme I’ve seen in a long …
