Exeter NH Springtime Family Photos

Exeter NH Springtime Family Photos

Springtime.. but also that time it snowed on me in the middle of May. Ok, it wasn’t real snow… but bottom line, I had an absolute blast with these Exeter NH Springtime Family Photos. It’s so fun to see how families interact and connect. And this family does so on all levels! I joined them at their very lovely property. Every corner was another great spot for photos! We started on the green grass on

NH Seabrook Beach Family Photos

NH Seabrook Beach Family Photos

One of my favorite things about NH Seabrook Beach Family Photos is helping littles, (and hello, sometimes bigs too) come out of their shells. This early morning May session started off a little quiet and unsure. There was a little chill in the air. The girls were still a little sleepy. And they definitely weren’t sure what the deal was with this crazy lady following them to the beach 😂 Once we found common ground,

Vicki + Stephen: A Late Summer Cliff House Wedding

My love affair with the Cliff House is pretty well documented at this point. My love affair with Vicki + Stephen and their Summer Cliff House Wedding? That’s a whole new chapter! As I drove to the wedding, it very unexpectedly started raining. I looked at my radar and was dismayed, however – it looked like it was going to disappear as quickly as it had appeared. And disappeared it did! It knew better than

BFF 40th Birthday Celebration Session York Maine

Stop everything you’re doing right now and check out these BFF 40th Birthday Celebration Session York Maine photos. Pay no attention the sh*tty grammar and sentence structure of that previous sentence and just do it. Then, once you’ve done it, decide who YOU’RE going to have a session that is simply to be silly, have fun, drink white claws, and eat cupcakes. Eat cupcakes off mannequin arms even. I am slowly, but surely, seeing a

York Maine Cake Smash + Family Photos

We last saw these folks for their 6-month celebration and some epic Odiorne Point NH Fall Family Photos! Now it’s time for their York Maine Cake Smash + Family Photos to commemorate little man’s first birthday! That also means our second baby’s first-year series has come to an end 😩 (But you can relive the baby bump and baby snuggles from our at-home Southern Maine maternity + newborn session here 🥳) For his first birthday,

Portsmouth NH Spring Maternity Session + Newborn Photos

Portsmouth NH Spring Maternity Session + Newborn Photos

From teeny tiny NH newborn photos, to traveling toddler, to big sister to be, this little girl has won over my heart countless times. But my favorite might be the Portsmouth NH Spring Maternity Session + Newborn Photos. More specifically, the rainboots and pigtails she rocked for their Family Maternity Session at Prescott Park this spring. Just prior to that session, well, I suppose about 6 months prior to that session, we were hanging out

Baby L! Rye NH Newborn Photos

A BIIIIIG stretch and a little grumble. The cuteness in these Rye NH Newborn Photos is over the top. This chunky baby boy is the love of all. But perhaps especially, big brother. Brothers.⁠⁠There’s a bond that starts early with siblings. ⁠⁠Will they beat the crap out of each other eventually? For sure.⁠⁠Will they fight over space and toys, and the air they’re breathing? Most likely.⁠⁠Will they drive you crazy with their bickering one second

Portsmouth NH Micro-Wedding

Jessa + Jason! Portsmouth NH Micro-wedding

I love meeting people who love to laugh as much as I do. Jessa and Jason? They might love to laugh even more than I do! While I was only at this Portsmouth NH Micro-wedding for an hour, I spent much of it laughing with them! I’ve historically done smaller, shorter weddings. But in the past years (even pre-covid), I’m seeing a trend of couples wanting coverage for the important parts – Ceremony, family photos,

Remember when you were as tiny as a flower?

Ranunculus. (Flower humor) This little peanut showed up a full month early for her Newmarket NH Newborn Session and at her 9-day photoshoot, weighed in at 4 pounds 4 oz! Her super crafty mom had a few ideas for photos and one of them was to use some of the florals from one of their congratulations bouquets. I love how she fits right in with the length of them and the floral wrap that matches,
