Hair Did

Yesterday Brooke went to what I think was her last hair trial before the wedding.  She had to run back into the house to grab her veil.  Here’s a few other hair trial pictures from January that I published on the old blog.  This is also a good time to make a clumsy segue into […]

Bouquets and Bullets

I always knew that Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen had a lot in common with Brooke and I.  But this is crazy: We’re getting married twice, too!  On Friday the 24th we’re doing a small religious ceremony with just our families (and God).  This way we can have the Saturday ceremony and reception all in […]

My sister swung through Brookline the other day in search of a new car seat for my ever-expanding nephew. She needed to give her full attention to picking the safest, best-fitting, and most stylish (cow print) car seat. So, I kept an eye on little man.  I never realized how many friends you can make […]

Dawn and Scott

I had a wonderful time wandering around with Dawn and Scott last week for their engagement photos. We walked  around Southie with the pups before exploring the side streets of the North End. We had no itinerary or direction in mind. Getting a little lost often leads to the best, most surprising photos. However, we […]
