Could you ask for a more photogenic family? I met up with Courtney, her husband and their two beautiful girls a while back to take some family photos. This first one might be my favorite of the day- just look at those smiles!!!! This right here is exactly why I love taking family photos. Dogs…
Emily and Donny are getting married in November at the Mt. Washington Hotel!!!!!!! Can you tell how excited I am for their wedding?! I met Emily back in college when she was on the swim team with my roommate and last year I ran into her and her parents in North Conway while they were…
What do you get when you mix an old rusted car frame, beautiful light and a guy with a guitar… BAM!!!!! (yes this pictures defiantly deserves a BAM).
The perfect September day. A beautiful location. Two people in love. That was the recipe for Lytta and Michael’s wedding day. The flowers were so fun and bright- which matched the beautiful green bridesmaid dresses. Riverstone Fine Pastries from North Conway created their classic cake. The ceremony was officiated by Kim the JP, right next…
Diane Arbus put her love for photography into the perfect words: "Taking pictures is like tiptoeing into the kitchen late at night and stealing Oreo cookies”. I say bring on the cookies and while I am stuffing my face with sugary goodness I am also striving to capture the emotion, moments and love that is happening right in front of my lens.
I am a wife (newly wed!!!), a doggy momma and 6 feet tall. I'm most comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt but have found myself warming up to the new trend of leggings- almost as comfortable as yoga pants yet acceptable to be seen in public wearing. I love to travel and can't wait to get back to Scotland where my husband, Silas, and I spent our honeymoon. I love people and I love to talk. I hate to write, I'm a terrible speller (thank goodness for spell check). I am a wanna-be foodie and wineo.
I'm a pretty easy going person and I think that aspect of my personality really comes through in my style of photography. I'm not a photographer who poses you by coming up and moving your left arm here, your right arm like that, twist your head this way and that... I'm a little more hands off and a little more about you being you in front of the camera. When it comes down to it you are hiring me to capture YOU. Your life, your family, your wedding. The more I can do to make you comfortable and feel like yourself the better. You'll often hear me say things like "snuggle" to my couples or tell the kids to go kick a soccer ball in the yard for family photos.
I want to know you, we can grab a drink or have dinner at a local pub or just walk down the street to my favorite coffee shop but my goal is to get to know you just a little bit better so that when I'm capturing your life, be it your wedding day, engagement photos or family pictures that you are comfortable with me and I'm comfortable with you so that this camera in my hand isn't the main focus of the day. Capturing you and your life is.
So, hears to a joyous life full of love and beautiful art.
