Senior Session

Triplet Senior Photos: Emma, Jordan & Reese

I’ve done two senior sessions for twins but this was my first set of triplet senior photos! Meet Emma, Jordan & Reese! These three Maynard High School seniors were so fun to photograph and they’re all so different. Reese is obsessed with The Outer Banks, The Bachelor/Bachelorette and John Mayer. She’s a soccer player, she […]

Gibbet Hill Wedding: Brianna & Greg

Brianna & Greg’s Gibbet Hill Wedding was nothing short of a fairytale. Castle (ruins) and all. If you’ve never been to Gibbet Hill, you should change that. They’re a delicious restaurant with an awesome wedding venue on gorgeous rolling hills, often with cows grazing. An amazing spot for anyone to get married, but a no-brainer […]

Senior Session

Nashoba Tech Senior: Sabrina

This Nashoba Tech Senior is Sabrina! She’s my neighbor and a real cutie! I’ve known her since she was a baby because my mom is super close with her family. And I did her sister’s senior photos! She is a huge animal lover aspiring to be a vet! So naturally, we let one of her […]

Senior Session

Rockport Senior Photos: Shayla

These Rockport Senior Photos with Shayla made me so happy! I love the coast and was thrilled that Shayla and her mom were on board to drive all the way there for senior photos. I’ve had some great sessions at Halibut Point so I knew it would be amazing. And c’mon, look at Shayla’s hair! […]

Backyard Wedding Inspiration

I recently got to meet up with another photographer, Piper, in my town to chat over coffee on our town common. We’ve both lived in the same town for many years now yet somehow didn’t know about the other. She found me while Googling around to send a couple to me on a day she […]

Senior Session

Old North Bridge Senior Session: Patrick

My Old North Bridge Senior Session with Patrick earlier this fall happened just in the nick of time. The weather looked perfect all day. I didn’t even think to check before heading out, until a friend of mine happened to text me a photo of the sky up in Maine on the beach. Huge black […]

Senior Session

Fall Senior Photos: Gia

Gia chose an awesome spot for her fall senior photos! Way up on top of Gibbet Hill at the Bancroft Castle Ruins! It’s a perfect spot overlooking Groton with an awesome sunset view. It’s a bit of a steep climb but totally worth it. Gia is a high school senior at Lawrence Academy this year. […]

Boho Backyard Wedding: Melanie & Dan

Melanie & Dan’s Boho Backyard Wedding was exactly the wedding Melanie had always wanted. Her and Dan had been engaged for a few years with no real wedding plans in sight. But they did build a brand new house together. Melanie had envisioned a small celebration at their new home, and 2020 ended up being […]

Senior Session

WA Senior: Olivia

Olivia is a WA Senior who was so much fun to photograph! We met up at the Arnold Arboretum for the first part of our shoot because Olivia really wanted some flowers in her photos. We finished in Concord at a spot I love to try and get a little bit of that sunset light. […]

Senior Session

Maynard High School Senior Photos: Carolyn

My first Senior Session this year was with Maynard High School Senior, Carolyn! Carolyn was so much fun! We had a great time wandering through tall grass and chatting. She was a natural and her mom was the coolest. Her mom actually grew up near the location we shot at, which is a spot I […]

Boston Wedding: Elizabeth & Brendan

I loved loved loved this Boston Wedding! I can’t even with these two. They are so cute together! Elizabeth & Brendan got married in their little backyard space at their South End apartment in Boston. Their original wedding plan was to get married in Raleigh, North Carolina. Elizabeth’s parents live there and that’s where she […]

Kathryn & Pat

Kathryn & Pat are so fun! They had a little elopement, just the two of them this August. They were another 2020 couple effected by Covid. They planned to get married at Olio in Peabody this past April. They postponed until August, but ultimately decided to elope this year and have their big party next […]

Wedding

Amanda and Nate

I’m completely obsessed with Amanda & Nate’s Flag Hill Winery Wedding. Like most 2020 couples, Covid messed with their wedding plans. Their originally planned date was in June, which they moved to August. Flag Hill Winery is in New Hampshire, so they ended up actually being able to have a fairly normal wedding, just with […]

Engagement Session

Cape Cod Engagement

Gina & Steve are just the cutest and their Cape Cod engagement session was absolutely perfect! These two met through Gina’s friend, Marie, in college. They kept in touch over the years, but reconnected one summer while they were both on Cape Cod a few years later. Steve actually didn’t ask Gina out until the […]

Engagement Session

Rockport Engagement Session: Jen & Joseph

Guys, this Rockport Engagement Session. What a saga. We rescheduled Jen & Joseph’s original engagement session date due to summer thunderstorms. We had our new date picked out already and were good to go. I pull into the beach parking lot we’re meeting at a little before 6:30pm on a Monday. It. Is. Mobbed. Hardly […]

Maternity Session

Scituate Maternity Session: Jill & Brian

Jill & Brain’s Scituate Maternity Session was absolute perfection! They are expecting a little baby boy! To remember this special time in their lives, they wanted to have a maternity session on the beach. Actually, they wanted announcement photos months ago, but you know…Covid. I loved this session though! We met up in Scituate, where […]

Backyard Wedding: Rachel & John

Rachel & John’s Backyard Wedding was a lovely little intimate affair. Instead of the big wedding they had planned at The Barn on Benson’s Pond, they opted to get married at their own home. Something a lot of couples are doing in the midst of a global pandemic. I think it’s a little extra special […]

Summer Engagement Session: Tara & Patrick

Tara and Patrick’s Summer Engagement Session was so much fun! Hot, but fun! They had never had professional photos done before and claimed they are not really photo people….c’mon guys! You’re so cute!! These came out so playful and they make me happy! So I actually know these two through a friend of mine who […]

Senior Session

Lexi’s Graduation Session

Lexi!!! My little cousin, not so little anymore. We had a photoshoot to celebrate her 2020 college graduation from The University of New Hampshire! It was cool to see the huge campus (my college was itty bitty) and their cute little down town. Her senior year of college was of course affected by Covid 19 […]

Class of 2020 Prom & Graduation Photos

This past week I decided to offer some Prom & Graduation photos to the Class of 2020 seniors that I photographed last fall. Their senior year of high school was totally ruined because of Covid 19 and I wanted to do something special for them. They didn’t get to finish off the school year with […]

Acton Arboretum Engagement Session: Nicole & Steve

I’m so thrilled to be sharing this Acton Arboretum Engagement Session with you! Because of Covid 19, I haven’t been able to have a photoshoot since March! Now that the weather is nice and we can socially distant shoot outside, I finally got to photograph Nicole & Steve’s Engagement session. Fun fact, I’ve photographed them […]

Why you should take advantage of Engagement Sessions

Engagement Sessions! Have you ever thought about doing one? I highly recommend them! They’re the best for so many reasons. The most important reason you should consider doing an engagement session is so you can get a practice run in in front of my camera before your big day! You’ll likely feel awkward at first, […]

Going Full Time During Coronavirus

I used to think about the day I would leave my “regular” job, well, daily. I won’t get into details, but I was miserable there, and that place didn’t give me any skills that any other job in my field was looking for. So I felt stuck. But during my time there, my love for […]

Ahh, the first look. A very controversial topic. I know it’s not for everyone, but I’m going to outline a few reasons why I love a first look! The reaction! This is one reason I know a lot of guys are anti-first look. They now feel pressured about their reaction to seeing the love of […]

What Is Bright & Airy Photography?

What is Natural Light, Bright & Airy Photography? This means I try to create images that look brightly lit with a light and airy feel to them. Think flowy and dreamy and joyful, while only using natural light. So…the sun! I’m sure you knew that though. You’re smahht! This is my favorite style, so shooting […]

Amanda & Nate

I was so excited to photograph Amanda, Nate & their daughter Avery’s Rye, NH fall engagement/family session at one of my favorite spots! It also just happened to be the first place Nate ever took Amanda when she visited his family before they moved here. What a perfect coincidence! Last time I shot here was in July, […]
