This wasn’t just any Southern NH Backyard tented wedding – Katie & Lowell’s wedding took place at Lowell’s family home that’s been a part of their story for generations. The spectacular edifice is even a registered historical landmark! Katie & Lowell were referred to me by Lowell’s brother Haven and his wife, Nicole. Originally of …
Oh to be young, and not just young at heart. Family sessions always give me a good workout and the resistance of the sand definitely adds to the calorie burn 🙂 That said, there are fewer things that exhibit pure bliss more than letting kids run amuck on the beach. These four cousins had all …
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 …
Sweet baby Keilani. Glorious Cheif. And rockstar of her seacoast NH newborn photos. I met her mom at the gym, and he older brother Keoni has ham & cheesed all over a mini-session here and there. Meeting this precious peanut was an absolute pleasure. This picture on the left is one of my favorites. I …
They say you’re not supposed to pick favorites. You’re supposed to love all your children equally. And I do, but sometimes there are greater factors at play.

Kristin & Matt landed a lovely afternoon to meet up for their Urban Forestry Maternity Photos. They had seen my pictures (and probably me) at WHYM and followed the wonderful adventure that is baby Lydia. Kristin was so cute and very excited for all the ways she’d already heard of my work and that she had such a special occasion …
I of course love Great Island Common Family Photos in any capacity, but one of the coolest things happened over and over again this summer. Generations of love. Families taking the time to celebrate being a family with family photos. Taking the time to coordinate schedules (a monumental task in and of itself), think about …
The parents of these two lovely ladies contacted me about NH Senior Yearbook Photos for their wonderfully accomplished children. 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. 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 …
