Fritha and Kevin have been building their life together for quite some time now. Originally college sweethearts (who actually met while studying abroad before realizing they were attending the same college!), they settled in Boston after graduation and have been making it their home ever since. It was during the pandemic that they, like many others, added to their household by getting a puppy. Gatsby is equal parts handsome gentleman and goofy furbaby. While he knows something is changing with Fritha, it’s not clear if he realizes just how much…
Read MoreLauren // Maine Senior Portraits
For Lauren’s senior portraits, we met at Kettle Cove in Cape Elizabeth, Maine for a summer sunrise. It was a quiet Sunday and the beaches were empty as I greeted her and her sweet mom, Lynn. The only people who started to arrive soon after us were men loading boats into the water to take to the seas. The sky was a gorgeous…
Read MoreElizabeth & Christian // Maine Island Wedding
Is there anything more lovely than a Maine island wedding? I might be a little biased here because I myself got married on a Maine island, but…it is just too dreamy! Liz and Christian decided to take this route and tie the knot on Long Island, ME, both because it’s breathtaking but also because it’s a place that is very personal to them…
Read MoreAbby // Easton, MA Headshots
A triple threat on stage, Abby has her sights set on a life spent in the theater. It’s safe to say she’s off to an excellent start in pursuing this dream. Not only is she a powerhouse singer, but she can act and dance, too. Her talents and efforts frequently win her the lead roles in productions both in her school’s drama program and also community theaters. She learns her lines with studious aplomb and has regularly mentored younger students on their own paths to the spotlight. Now that she is readying herself for higher education and gathering her portfolio together, it was time for a key component: headshots…

Read MoreElise & Gavin // Boston Engagement
For Gavin and Elise, Boston wasn’t always home. Originally from Pennsylvania and Delaware respectively, these two college sweethearts had barely been in Boston a year when Gavin popped the question. And already by that time, they had already made themselves quite the locals. They cozied up in their new apartment with…

Read MoreMichael & Leah // Farm Wedding in Winchester, MA
Mike and Leah’s wedding day was perhaps the most tender celebration I’ve ever photographed. There were so many thoughtful details from start to finish, and I think it all represented how caring of a couple they truly are and how much they center their lives around…
Read MoreFallon & Liam // Maine Island Wedding
Liam and Fallon were married on the perfect Maine day in August - meaning, there was every bit of weather you could sample for the season, and it was all exactly right. Weddings are naturally magical days, and I think that magic is further even amplified when the couple is able to tie the knot in place that holds special meaning for them or their family. Well, Fallon and Liam had it all at Peaks Island…
Read MoreKyra & Gordon // Portland, Maine Wedding
After a week full of rain, it was finally a perfect June day in Maine - sunny skies with a cool ocean breeze. Gordon and Kyra couldn’t have picked a better day for their wedding in Portland, Maine. I actually met Kyra and Gordon when we were all living in Roanoke, VA, and then we each made our way up to New England. They share passions for weightlifting, outdoorsy adventures, and cats, just to name a few. They know how to work hard for their dreams, but also how to relax and enjoy life. I was so honored to capture their wedding, especially since…
Read MorePhoebe & Sam // Vermont Wedding
Phoebe and Sam each got ready at Naulakha, a Landmark Trust Property where Rudyard Kipling (yes, the author of The Jungle Book!) use to live. They commandeered separate floors in the house on a cloudy Vermont day in early summer. The rhododendrons around the property were bursting with soft pink blooms and the old wooden floors of the house creaked…
Read MoreLydia & Roger // Maine Wedding
Lydia and Roger were married on a hot (and I mean HOT! ) July day in New Gloucester, Maine. It was a day full of energy, tradition, and most of all - love. Together these two lively individuals blended their families and it led to some very touching moments and an absolutely raucous dance floor…
Read MoreSarah // Boston Headshots
This spring, Sarah sought me out to take some updated headshots for her professional life as a clinical psychologist. I was so excited! Sarah has an incredibly buoyant presence and I was looking forward to capturing her energy with my camera. We met at the Harvard Arnold Arboretum around sunset in…
Read MoreJosh and Heather // Fincastle, VA Wedding
After numerous Covid-19 postponements, Josh and Heather finally got to celebrate their big day at the historic Kyle House in Fincastle, VA. There was an air of “finally!” after all of the logistical hoops they had to jump through to make the wedding a reality at last. I had photographed their engagement photoshoot back in 2019, so it was extra special to see them again after all of that time to celebrate…
Read MoreMorgan // Spring Senior Portraits
This senior portrait session took place on the kind of evening you dream about as a photographer: warm weather, flower-laden trees, and a burning orange sunset. Amid the gorgeous natural backdrop, Morgan was totally aglow. Her mother came along with us as we made use of every natural feature and point of interest available. On all of my shoots, I am all about achieving as much variety as possible and this setting did not disappoint…
Read MoreFallon & Liam // NYC Engagement
Fallon and Liam are college sweethearts who, after many years of being together, got engaged last summer. Liam planned a perfectly darling and private backyard proposal, pulling off the surprise in their little corner of the world outside New York City. They’re celebrating their wedding in Fallon’s home state of Maine, but since they’ve called NYC home for a long time now, it felt right to them to have their engagement shoot in the places that are part of their everyday life. So, I hopped on the train from Boston down to the Big Apple to capture this lovely couple in their element…
Read MoreWes and Alix // In-Home Session // Roanoke, VA
When Wes reached out to me about doing a family photo session with him, his wife Alix, and their three cats, I was thrilled. I personally love animals, and they always bring extra surprises and smiles to a photoshoot. Then Wes explained to me that a big reason why they wanted to capture memories with their fur babes is because their oldest cat, Millie, was nearing the end of her time and they wanted to remember these twilight days with her. Suddenly, the mission felt even more important.
Read MoreWelcome Walter // Newborn Session
I had captured Grace’s maternity photos just a few months before, so it was somewhat surreal to return to her home for a newborn session. All of a sudden there was a new human being there to greet me, and the household orbit had shifted dramatically to include him. As Grace is a dear friend, it was so precious to document these early days in her and Keegan’s new life with little Walter.
Read MoreCuoco Family // Roanoke, VA
The holidays are here. This season arrived as it always does - suddenly, despite all of the anticipation. I’ve not yet had a child, but I imagine it’s somewhat similar. So much planning and waiting and decorating until, one day, it’s time. For Ashley and Josh, the holidays happened to coincide with the birth of their first little one, Max…
