I met Kristin and Chris about a year before their wedding. (Fun fact! Kristin is a fellow photographer and we’ve had fun talking about cameras!!) We did their engagement portraits at Gillette Castle. While we were taking their pictures, Chris said, “Hey! I think that’s the yacht club!” And wouldn’t you know it, you could...
Lauren and Oscar were married in a small ceremony near their home in Georgia. They came up to New England to celebrate with Lauren’s Connecticut and Massachusetts (and Florida!) family and friends. I love that picture of the whole Vella clan towards the end! I am so honored they chose me to be a part of...
Erin and Nick were married at the beautiful Anthony’s Ocean View in New Haven. They had the most amazing light. I love that they were willing to go outside again during dinner to get that gorgeous sunset sky. From day one, I had a really terrific time planning with Erin and Nick. Starting with our first...
Hello! So glad you’re here! This post is all about the first half of our relationship together. Before we plan your wedding photography, we’ll have to plan your engagement session. The first question that every couple who has been together for a long time asks me, is “Do we really need an engagement session?” The...
Rita and Joe were married at the beautiful GreatHorse Country Club in Hampden, MA. They were the second couple to get married at GreatHorse and it was really fun meeting up with them and their wedding planner to see what GreatHorse had planned for them. I’ve known Joe for probably 30 years. He and my brother...

Lexi’s senior session + her BFFs + a windy beach = the perfect combination. 🤍 We captured plenty of beautiful individual portraits, along with fun moments with her friends that made this session feel so genuine and full of personality. The unexpected beach wind may have surprised us, but I absolutely love the movement and magic it added to her images.

Senior photos are even better when you get to do them alongside your best friends! 🤍 Jamie’s session was filled with individual portraits, sweet friend moments, and plenty of beachy wind that gave every image the most beautiful movement. I’m so glad we embraced the breeze! It made these photos feel effortless, fun, and completely her.

Lila’s senior session was extra special because she got to share it with her two best friends! 🤍 From individual portraits to the sweetest friend photos, this session captured so much of who they are together. We definitely weren’t expecting quite so much wind at the beach, but honestly, I’m obsessed with the movement it brought to these images. Senior year looks good on you, Lila!

One month until Chelsea and Daniel say “I do” at @theranchgolfclub in Southwick, MA!!
Since Charlie won’t be joining them on the wedding day, they brought him along for their engagement session at The Ranch so their engagement and wedding photos will have the same beautiful backdrop. And let’s just say… Charlie absolutely stole the show. 😂🐾
We had so much fun hanging out with Chelsea, Daniel, Charlie, and Chelsea’s parents (aka the official dog handlers!). We can’t wait to be back at The Ranch next month for the big day! ❤️
I don’t often get the chance to photograph newborns, so when Aysha and Brad told me they were home with Baby Stewart, I couldn’t wait to capture this sweet new chapter for their family. 🤍
Welcome earthside, Stewart. You are so loved.
Some love stories are meant to be shared with the world. Others are meant to be cherished a little more quietly. Today we`re celebrating a very special couple, and the beginning of their forever, while honoring their wish to keep their wedding day private. Congratulations! 🤍

Beautiful photos depicting the joy of the day and the contagion spreading to everyone involved and now to all of us sharing the photo views.
The pictures so perfectly capture the day!
