Colby Class of 2022 mbm weddings Senior Portrait Session

Congratulations to Colby, Class of 2022! I had a really great time photographing Colby and hanging out with him, his sister and his father.

Colby might be the nicest kid on the planet. You know what’s super cool about being a senior in his town? If you don’t have last period classes, you get to leave school early. You know what Colby has? No last period classes. You know what Colby does? He waits at school to drive his sisters home so they don’t have to take the bus. Seriously. We all need big brothers like Colby!

This guy is excelling in school this year. I won’t embarrass him too much, but he has been excelling in school since school for him started! His favorite subject is math, but he was quick to tell me that he wasn’t going to be a math teacher! He’ll likely major in math or business at whatever school is lucky enough to get him.

Busy is an understatement for describing what Colby does! Not only does he find time to keep his grades top-notch, he plays the baritone in his high school band. (Fun fact- He sits in front of my son!) And, as if that isn’t enough, he also is an awesome baseball player! I’m telling you. This kid has it all.

Colby, I am honored that I got to take your senior portraits and I wish you all the best in the coming years. I can’t wait to hear about all the incredible things you do!

Friends and family, please click below to leave Colby a message!

After months of working behind the scenes on our blog, we’re so excited to continue sharing the beautiful love stories we’ve had the honor of documenting. This week, we’re featuring Jennifer and Mitchell, and their timeless Publick House Historic Inn wedding is one you won’t want to miss.

Jennifer and Mitchell’s wedding day at the Publick House in Sturbridge, Massachusetts was the perfect blend of historic elegance, heartfelt moments, and pure joy. From getting ready onsite surrounded by buzzing excitement, to a ceremony that felt deeply personal and meaningful, every part of the day unfolded so naturally and beautifully.

Just before the ceremony, a brief rain shower passed through- the kind they say brings good luck. Minutes later, the sun emerged, the grounds dried, and the sky transformed into something truly breathtaking. It felt cinematic in the best possible way. Add in a ceremony officiated by a close friend, the iconic Publick House bunnies making a surprise appearance, and portraits by the pond, barns, and manicured meadows, and the day was nothing short of magical.

The celebration continued with emotional and funny toasts, a choreographed first dance that had everyone smiling, and a joyful cake cutting that perfectly reflected Jennifer and Mitchell’s energy as a couple.
We’re so honored to have been their wedding photographers and to tell their story through these timeless and romantic images.

Ever since our new blog site went live, I’ve been deep in blog catch-up mode. And, while working on Leah & Nick’s post, I completely lost track of time looking through the bridal prep images.

There is truly nothing like being in the bridal suite with the girls. As a total girlie girl, it’s one of my favorite part of the day, always full of laughter, excitement, and the kind of energy that makes you feel like you’ve just gained a whole new group of friends. Leah’s excitement was contagious, her bridesmaids had the best time getting ready, and every single one of them looked absolutely beautiful.

Make sure you’re subscribed to the blog (link in bio!) so you’ll be the first to know when Leah & Nick’s full wedding story goes live. 🤍

After months of working behind the scenes on our new blogsite, I’m so excited to finally start sharing again. Now that the site is live, we can once again blog and showcase the engagement sessions and weddings we’ve had the honor of photographing, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to share them with you on our new blogsite! This week, we`re featuring Vashe and Justin!

Vashe and Justin’s wedding day felt like something straight out of a storybook.

From watching unpredictable weather all day, to choosing the perfect ceremony spot just in time, their Tunxis Country Club wedding unfolded with so much heart, joy, and meaning. Add glowing fairy lights, an emotional ceremony, and a portrait session tucked deep in the woods, and it was pure magic.

And then there was Oreo. 🐾Yes, that Oreo, the four-legged guest who may have stolen the entire show walking down the aisle.

Their day was filled with laughter, tears, deeply emotional dances, and quiet moments that reminded us why we love telling love stories the way we do.

Merry Christmas, from our hearts to yours.

As a husband and wife team, it is an honor and a privilege to witness love in its most intimate form, two people choosing each other, choosing forever. This season, we are reminded that true luxury is not found in things, but in moments: the quiet exchange of vows, the warmth of a hand held tightly, the feeling of home found in another person.

May your holidays be wrapped in beauty, elegance, and the presence of those you call family. Whether your celebration is a private elopement beneath winter skies or a gathering held close by candlelight, may love be at the center of every memory you keep.

Thank you for being part of our journey and for trusting us with the moments that will become your family legacy. We are deeply grateful.

Wishing you a Christmas filled with magic, and a new year overflowing with devotion, connection, and timeless love.

Maggie emailed me the day after she and Leighton got engaged, and then the next day, we were photographing their engagement session! I actually had one mini session spot open up last minute, so it worked out perfectly. Turns out, we’re practically neighbors, too! Maggie and Leighton, it was so great to meet you! Congratulations again on your engagement!
