Sarah and Rachel had the most beautiful wedding on Lake Michigan and I was so honored to be a part of it. Sarah and Rachel’s intimate wedding ceremony was so romantic and so full of love. They said their vows in front of their parents and Sarah’s son (and now Rachel’s stepson!) with beautiful Lake...
Tracey and Dan chose one of my favorite parks, Harkness Memorial Park in Waterford, for their engagement session. We had to photograph around about eight million people, but I think it was worth it! We started with some family pictures to include their sweet and hilarious daughter, Alyssa. If you saw one of my facebook...
Quyen and Mark met me in Simbury for their Flower Bridge Romance session. We explored together and now they have some updated images for their new home. If you’re from the area, you know that Simsbury is celebrating an anniversary and along with many new statues, they updated the flower bridge. And oh my goodness…. ...
Emily and Eric chose Forest Park for their engagement session because Emily was in love with the rose garden and when I went to check it out, I immediately fell in love with the aquatic gardens. We started out in the rose garden. The flowers at Forest Park are so pretty! We got just about...
I got to photograph Chris and Kara’s Wickham Park sunset engagement session last week! Kara and Chris are seriously the best. They are so sweet together and the love they share is so evident. They had the most amazing sunlight. I think the best way to describe it is magical. Kara and Chris met a...

The absolute best kind of secret.
There is something so incredibly special about being invited into a moment like this. Stjepan reached out to us to help plan the perfect surprise for Sophie during their weekend getaway vacation in Mystic, and we couldn`t have been more honored to be there.
Planning every detail with Stjepan to ensure the moment was perfectly captured was a responsibility we don`t take lightly. Watching the pure joy on Sophie’s face when she realized what was happening? That’s exactly why we love what we do.
Cheers to the newly engaged couple! We are so happy for you both.
She said yes! ❤️💍
We have the best job in the world!!!!

Sweet Penelope 🤍
I do not get to photograph newborns often, but I truly love lifestyle newborn photography. There is something so special about slowing down and documenting these first tender days at home. Photographing Penelope’s session with her loving parents, Sarah and Tom, was such an honor.
This precious girl was an absolute angel. The only time she made a sound was when her mommy and daddy were not touching her. She clearly loves being safe in their arms, right where she belongs.
Sarah and Tom, thank you for trusting me to snuggle your beautiful baby and capture her very first photo session. Congratulations to your sweet family on the arrival of your perfect little darling.
Eloping doesn’t mean skipping the magic 💍✨
An engagement session captures this once-in-a-lifetime season of your love story, helps you feel confident in front of the camera, and gives you beautiful photos to treasure forever.

Some wedding days are quiet in the very best way 🤍
Sydni & Filip’s intimate Wickham Park wedding was filled with intention, presence, and so much love. Surrounded by blooming gardens and their closest people, they took their time, soaked it all in, and focused on what mattered most- getting married.
This day was heartfelt, meaningful, and beautifully true to who they are. So honored to be the ones to document it.
