Love in an apple orchard. The Cider Hill Farm orchard to be precise. Crystal was Nicole & Haven‘s Maid of Honor and the roles will be reversed at their upcoming wedding this August! I can’t wait to party with these two gorgeous blondes again – boy do good looks run in their family! The sun was so …
Lauren & Pat were my last couple to be married in 2011 and they helped wrap up the year in style with their stunning fall wedding at Gunstock Mountain. Last fall we had a great engagement session at Carter Hill Orchard in Concord and I learned what an amazing couple they are and what amazing …
Jae is class of 2012, slated to graduate next Friday. We met up for his senior photos in Exeter, and there wasn’t a pose or location he didn’t make look good. His sister Clarissa dominated her senior pictures just as easily. Good genes run in this family! That’s for sure. Jae was charming and charismatic and …
Sometimes people just fit, like a puzzle. Tracey & Ryan are two such interlocking pieces. They curl up into each other perfectly and make life look easy. We had a fantastic time in and around Strawbery Banke and Prescott Park for their Portsmouth, NH engagement shoot! We were festooned with sunshine, leaves, door frames, …
After leaving my fun family photo shoot near Boston, I headed over to Brooksby Farm in Peabody, MA to take some engagement photos with Amy & Kyle. They’ll be having their wedding at Smith Barn this fall and thought it would make the perfect backdrop for their engagement photos too. Did it ever! I’m …
Another year, another adventure with this spectacular family. Last year’s family photos at Hampton Beach were a smashing success, but John & Cecelia wanted to bring things back home for this, our 4th session together. I arrived to the boys another year bigger and even more full of charm and personality. And the ties! Be still …
Angie & Russ are the best. After their Salisbury Beach Engagement Photos in early spring, I knew that their wedding would be top notch sassy awesomeness. And it SO was. The girls all got ready at Angie’s mum’s house. The colors were phenomenal (in both the flowers & the tattoos!) Angie looked STUNNING. Her eyes and …
There’s no denying that Michelle & Kevin’s wedding at Whitney’s Inn was a little damp. Beautiful and perfect, but well – wet. So they decided to schedule an extra session, just the two of them, with abundant sunshine, fall color, and awesome. The end result is one of my favorite sessions to date! We headed …
Hello cuties! These three adorable kiddos call my good friend “Uncle Rob”. And he, being the awesome uncle that he is, surprised their parents with the gift of a session with me. Best Guy Ever! Oh my gosh they’re so gorgeous! Kass & Kaiya are the sweetest sisters- -to each other and to their younger …
Liz & Joe are as sweet as can be. They’re so purely and honestly in love with each other. You just feel better about the world when you’re around them. We met up for their engagement photos at Odiorne Point in Rye, NH and it was simply perfect. Under the bridge! One of my favorites, and they were …
