A few weeks after Andrea & Toto’s private beach ceremony they embarked on a day of tradition and blessings that, all told, included 400 of their friends and family. The day started out at their home with Andrea’s relatives helping prepare her for the morning. The fabrics and outfits were shipped from Thailand – the …
My first class of 2010 senior this past summer was Montanna. She and I met up on a hot August day at Prescott Park in Portsmouth to rock out some fabulous shots. She was up for anything and so sweet but driven all at the same time. And my favorite from the shoot – She’s …
Colleen & Howie contacted me in August ’08 when their wedding was just about a year away. They were referred by Kate & Marcus and I was so excited to be a part of their day! I arrived at St. John the Evangelist in Concord, NH to find last minute touches going on before Howie …
I met Traci & Scott at one of our favorite places ‘The Tavern’ in Exeter, NH. Great food, great drinks, great bartenders, great locals – it’s like Cheers; only with out Ted Danson’s hair. They are good friends of the owner, Jeff and when they finally decided to get married – The Tavern was the …

The rainy summer struck again – but ever diligent it didn’t foil our plans (just shortened them a bit). Sarah and I have known each other since 7th grade. She married her high school sweet heart, a military man, and he has been deployed more times than I can count. She tries to get home …
I have known Leah for a few years now and she never ceases to amaze me. Noah was lucky enough to cross paths with Leah and l.o.v.e. was born. It just happens that Leah creates. She does it here leahcreates.com and she also was invaluable in creating my new site here! In return I …
Just last week I shared with you Sukey & Bob’s engagement photos. The weather this summer was just mean. A rainy rainy June and July only got slightly better. However, these two eeked the most out of their day! I arrived at the Wentworth while they were finishing up Sukey’s finishing touches. She was …
