Hello

Mary & Matt: North Shore Summer Engagement Session

arrow

Portraits

Mary and Matt’s North Shore Summer Engagement session was magical. While planning their session, Mary shared that she dreamt of a unique coastal location with tall grass and a pretty view. My mind immediately went to one of my favorite picnic date spots in Essex, Massachusetts. It is a perennial favorite of Dillon and I, […]

Liz & Tim: Crane Beach Summer Engagement Session

Portraits

Liz and Tim’s Crane Beach summer engagement session filled my heart right up to the brim. They exude the kind of warmth and joy that leaves you feeling so encouraged from the moment you meet them. I met Liz virtually earlier this year and loved her right away, but this was my first time meeting […]

Montgomery Family: New Hampshire Spring Family Session

Portraits

“My card is full!” I looked over at Tommy and Kaelyn mid-pose during their New Hampshire spring family session, “That has never happened before!” I added, reaching into my bag for a new memory card. In all the sessions I’ve ever photographed, I’ve never filled a card by halfway through a session! The Montgomery family […]

I am so excited to share this Back Bay spring engagement session with you today! This was my second time photographing engagement portraits on Commonwealth Ave this year and let me tell you, springtime in Boston is magical. Add a sunny, 75-degree evening and it gets even better.

Couples

I am so excited to share today’s classic Crane Beach spring engagement session. Kayla and Brian are *the* epitome of a classic New England couple. He’s from the Cape, and she’s from a Connecticut town that could easily neighbor Stars Hollow. He proposed at Brant Point, an iconic Nantucket Lighthouse (Dillon and I celebrated our […]

Portraits

It was a quiet February afternoon on the day of Hilary and Matt’s Public Garden winter engagement session. I had just parked and was walking through Copley when a few snowflakes landed on my lashes. We were meeting on the Beacon Hill side, at the very spot where they were engaged in November. They are […]

The Goodspeed Family: New England Farmhouse Family Session

Portraits

Oh friends, today’s post is a really good one! This New England farmhouse family session was one of my favorite snippets of October. The prettiest foliage dotted the drive to their home and the sun was sparkling through the trees. As if that was not picturesque enough, the sky was the perfect blue. And the […]

Concord Massachusetts Portrait Session

Portraits

October is such a magical time. Katlyn Rose’s Concord Massachusetts portrait session took place on the most perfect fall morning. The air was crisp, but not too cold. We were up before the world woke up and it felt like we had the whole town to ourselves. We began Katlyn Rose’s session on Main Street […]

Portraits

Kiara’s equestrian portrait session is a very special one. She is one of Dillon’s five younger sisters, and the most recent high school graduate in our family. We met up for her session on the most perfect afternoon in October. It was peak foliage time in New England and the leaves were as vibrant as […]

Portraits

The Peters family has a special place in my heart! Jess and I met a few months before my wedding in 2017 and became fast friends. She has a heart of gold and was such a support and encouragement to me as I became a wife! During those days when I was a newlywed, she […]
