A lot changes in a year. In the course of 12 months we’ve transitioned from worrying about keeping Ellis alive to worrying about him eating too many pancakes. Each phase is better than the last (so far). We have a sweet little boy who has a sense of humor and much love to give. His stuffed animals can attest […]

Jill and Stu got married in Cocoa, Florida, not far from where they live. The ceremony at the Derby Street Chapel and the reception on the Indian River Queen met all my expectations for a charming Old Florida experience. Heading south as winter closes its grasp on New England was a bonus, but regardless of where Jill and […]
Kate and Patrick got married at St. Mary of the Assumption and Le Méridien. I discovered they both are hilarious, and I caught myself laughing out-loud multiple times throughout the day. Doing my job became particularly difficult when a pumpkin started flying back and forth over the dance floor. I couldn’t stop laughing, and I was trying […]
If Laura and Dustin lived in Boston we probably would have rescheduled their engagement session. The snow, rain and strong winds seemed inconvenient, but we were going to make it work. And I’m glad we did. The wintery mix dried up, the sun came out, and the wind, well, was still really strong. But we had […]
You know how much I love backyard weddings. Liz and Eric’s ceremony at her parents’ home had that same warmth and familiarity only found in a place with personal history. And with the leaves starting to change color it was the best time of year to celebrate at home. Congratulations, Liz and Eric!
I’ve always had a personal relationship with photography. Some periods of the past 15 years that relationship has been stronger than others. Maybe it’s because my mental space is clogged with parenting logistics, but since Ellis has arrived I’ve taken fewer pictures at home. As sand slips through my fingers with unprecedented clarity, I do less to […]
I wasn’t the one who pulled the fire alarm at Kelly and Mike’s wedding, but photographically it sure was a treat to document firefighters crashing the party. Most of the day and evening was delightfully low-key, although after the Boston Fire Department confirmed we were all safe the dance floor opened up, and the energy elevated a […]
Lynn owns a dance studio right around the corner from my office here in Arlington. We didn’t know each other beforehand, but it was fun to shoot a neighbor’s wedding. I had so much fun being around Lynn and Wayne. They were both down to earth, and their families were such a joy to work with. And […]
Erica and Marcus got married at the Liberty Hotel. They built in enough time for us to walk around the Esplanade and take a ride on the Red Line taking pictures. The day was beautiful, and it was nice to include the city in the celebration. The spontaneous choreographed dance by the wedding party was […]
