Holly and Pete: Like A Song of Love That Clings To Me

Holly and Pete got married this past spring at The Bedford Village Inn in New Hampshire. They had an amazing early spring day to celebrate. When Doug and I met up with them for their engagement session, we knew their wedding would be special - the type of wedding that truly embraced what a wedding was all about - marriage. It did not disappoint! It was clear from the beginning that Holly and Pete's families were one of the most important parts of the day. Their nieces and nephews were involved in the ceremony, the tables were named after them, and they were a big part of the reception, dancing the night away! It was so easy for us to get caught up in the joy of the wedding - it's one of the things that makes photographing weddings so awesome! Instead of slideshows, we've got long-form blog posts! Enjoy all the photos!









































Holly and Pete, thank you so much for inviting us to photograph your wedding, and for being so patient with this blog post! Congratulations!

Look at what I'm working on! It reminds me of Winnie the Pooh and the blustery day...

Wedding Sneak Peek: Somewhere In Her Smile She Knows

Another sneak peek post with awesome couples! Today's post title is inspired by the autobiography of Pattie Boyd which I finished reading yesterday! The song, of course, is "Something," written by George Harrison.

Maine Baby Photography: Such A Timeless Flight

Meet Kate! She lives in Hawaii but made it all the way up to Maine for a vacation. Maine is just that awesome. I've known Kate's mom since the two of us were in seventh grade. We navigated the rough terrain of junior high together. In ninth grade, we had a semi-secret language and a favorite Albert Einstein quote. For her 16th birthday, we conquered the Belly Buster. We went to the movies together. We went to concerts together. Flash forward to now and she's got Kate, a perfect little one year old! I traveled up to Maine to photograph this little princess at one year old in one of the family's favorite places!



She loved sniffing all the flowers!




Concentrating.


I loved watching her expression as the waves would wash up and get her wet.


Gorgeous lashes and a pretty pout.


Mom & dad might be in trouble with this little one...


Happy birthday, Kate! I hope every year is as magical as the first!

Cape Cod Family Photography: Our Love Is Going Gold

It all started 40 years ago with this happy couple...


I was thrilled to be invited down to the Cape to photograph this family! Of course, in the spirit of full disclosure, I've known them since I was five years old. Now they have grandchildren that are that age! How time flies!















The girls.


The boys.




The grandparents.


Everyone.


It was such a thrill to be a part of this special occasion! I love that photography gives me access to parties I wouldn't normally be invited to!

Boston Newborn Photography: Whatcha Gonna Do When They Come For You

That's right - I just quoted a lyric from the song "Bad Boys."
Here's why:



This sweet little girl happens to be the daughter of a policeman (watch out future boyfriends!) and he wanted us to incorporate part of his uniform into her newborn photos. She was such a trooper (hahaha - pun not originally intended) as we wrapped her up in his shirt and balanced her in his hat.

And here we have her in a more girly outfit.

A friend of her mom's made this tutu specifically for her photo debut. I love how colorful it is!

Sound asleep in mama's arms!


Baby K's parents are wedding clients of mine from a few years ago, so it was an honor that they asked me to photograph their new baby. I love watching my clients' families grow!
