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.

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.
