I’ve spoken of my love of karaoke before and shared family photos and newborn photos of some of the folks I’ve met through my time at sketchy dive bars, but this, is my first friends from karaoke wedding!! I think Pat was one of the first karaoke-goers I met 15 years ago when I started mingling with …
Hello Gorgeous!!!! Dave & Art have stolen a pretty sizable chunk of my heart. Their adoration and respect for each other, in addition to how much they outwardly just enjoy life and the people they surround themselves with, is something I will never forget. We met at their house and they drove me around to …
Did you know that Holyoke MA is the birthplace of Volleyball? Having never been there before I was amazed to learn that on their town sign as I headed to Mel & Michelle’s wedding. Talk about a DIY wedding of EPIC proportions! Mel & Michelle’s friends and family banded together to help them in producing …
I adore this family. ANOTHER gorgeous family I’ve been privileged to watch grow since they were 2 + baby bump. Now Reese is FOUR and we got together for a quick shoot. I love the first photo from this year, and the 2nd photo from her 18 month old pictures. So much changes, but somethings, …
Arianna & Faith percolate with happiness. You can’t be near them and not smile, and when they’re together, it’s infinite! They got ready separately and took two rounds of limo down to Prescott Park for their super adorable first look! After we tore up the town for some photos, we headed over to Flag Hill …
Becca was so excited to catch the bouquet at her sister’s 2011 wedding at the Ballymeade Country Club and when she emailed me to say that she and Katelyn were (finally) engaged I was jump-up-out-of-my-chair-and-hurrah excited! Walking into their family home was like a home-coming! I love the symmetry in this wedding. They got ready on …
Happiness is not a destination but a way of life. 10 little words that everyone should try to embrace. Kelly & Laurie, they’ve embraced it 100%. I’ve known Kelly for a few years (close to a decade!?) and she very patiently waited for Laurie to enter her life. The song “i knew I loved you …
Alec & Michael. Oh, Alec & Michael. Planning a destination wedding from South Carolina is no easy task, but these two pulled it off with style. The weather in late September is never predictable. Mother Nature wasn’t particularly hospitable to this group from the south, but it just made our adventure all the more grand. …
Amy & Marie’s wedding was GORGEOUS. With the most amazing array of florals from Jessica at Cymbidium Floral in Exeter, custom chucks, a Dr. Who Tardis cake, line dancing, cigar smoking, and smiles as far as the eye could see, I couldn’t have imagined a better way for these two to celebrate their love for …
It’s amazing how fast spring can sproing. (yes, sproing). Just a few short weeks after Sam & Josh’s fantastic winter wonderland engagement shoot in the snow, I found myself checking another experience off my photographer’s bucket list. The sunrise shoot. Now, getting up, showered & dressed, and driving an hour to be in place all …
