Are you ready for this Odiorne Point Sunset Picnic Engagement Shoot? It’s officially autumn again! Which means I’m officially way the EF behind on blogging. But I want everyone to have their moment in the sun, or in this case, the sunset! The Odiorne Point Boat Launch is one of my favorite hidden gems on the …
Sometimes, you can believe everything you read on the internet – “We’ve looked at lots of photographers websites at this point, and we think you’d be a great fit for us! You seem like you have a great sense of humor, your photos are amazing, and you have fantastic reviews… We would love for you …
Sometimes things happen for a reason. (I actually think most of the time things happen for a reason) In this instance, Kathryn, Andrew & I were supposed to meet in Portsmouth on Pierce Island for our photo rendezvoux when we realized that the Spanish tall ship El Galeon Andalucia was sailing into Portsmouth and docking at Pierce …
These are the emails that excite me the most: 25 months in advance of their wedding, I received this inquiry from Jen. “We are having an afternoon wedding at Portsmouth Country Club. I know it’s far in advance but having looked at your photos, I don’t want to miss out on the opportunity!” We met …
Julie & Jay were sent over to me after Mel & Michelle’s spectacular Mill 1 at Open Square Wedding. We met up for coffee and chatted and she mentioned something about her sister just getting engaged. After I got home, I brought up a WHYM Beer Friend, Jess on facebook – and low and behold – …
Amanda & Jarrad met up with me in early summer for a York, ME engagement shoot. They found me staring in the window of The Goldenrod lamenting just how “early” in summer it was (they weren’t open yet) 😉 (there’s a happy ending though – keep reading!) We took the short walk over to Short Sands …
Kelly & Dan visited the Connors Center and fell in love with it. I mean, WHO WOULDN’T!? And it just so happens my photo graces the cover of Connors Center Wedding brochure . They did a little more digging around my website and saw the post of Jen & Pete’s Wedding and reached out to see if I …
Sometimes you have a client meeting and you just know you’re in for a fantastic ride. From their first email I knew we would hit it off, and when we finally sat down for some margaritas and album looking we did more laughing than talking I think! They even came out and played some trivia …
The way to my heart? Good, solid, words. (grammar is not my strongest suit, but words – words I love) Stephanie & Mike sent me an email inquiry that included this paragraph “We’re planning to have a group of about 130 people at the MVG’s Crystal Ballroom/Fountain View Terrace for a vintage inspired, old-Hollywood type …
I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned before that I’m a townie. Though I was born in Massachusetts, we’ve lived in the Exeter area since I was in 6th grade. I hated it at first. HATED IT. I mean, what kid wants to be uprooted at the peak of awkward from the friends that already accept her …
