Remember that weekend in July when we were all going to melt? 96 degrees and 85% humidity? Well, that’s the day that Laurie Beth (LB!) and Nick got married. A heat wave never looked so good. It was nearly impossible for me to narrow down the shots for this post. I wanted to share them …
Noah’s one of the sweetest, cutest, pudgiest babies ever. 10 perfect fingers. 10 perfect toes. (I love baby hand dimples!!) So handsome – and with some of the best expressions I’ve ever seen on an infant! Mmm – snacktime. *nom.nom.nom* It’s easy to see how he got to be so gorgeous – just look at …
Lorin contacted me after receiving a gift certificate from her sister for Christmas. I met up with her and her family at Prescott Park in Portsmouth for our shoot. Though the weather threatened to give us a run for our money, we took the risk and ended up with a beautiful evening. The Girls …

Niki booked me sight unseen after a referral from a few of her friends (Thank Lizz & Sarah!) A few weeks before the wedding we got together for a drink and some wedding chatting. She brought her MOH Everly and I couldn’t have imagined a more fun duo if I tried. We chatted the evening …
The amount of times Elton John and his Circle of Life run through my brain as I look at my photography career astounds me. I love where my life has led me! Raina & I knew of each other in High School – that was a lot of years ago, and aside from the occasional friend of …
When I arrived at the Ash Street Inn to begin my time with Mandy & Amanda – I was greeted with the most fabulous purpleness ever. Confirmed, this wedding was going to be ALL*STAR! The girls got ready together that morning, it was so sweet to watch them share in their nerves and preparations. The Ash Street …
Nicole and Shawn were married on a gorgeous, picture perfect, amazing, spectacular, wonderful day. THREE months ago. And the Tale of the Delinquent Blogger continues.
