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 […]
Kelly and Joe are having a big year. They bought a house. Kelly got a new job. And you may have guessed they’re engaged. Hanging out with them and capturing a piece of this exciting time in their lives was a lot of fun. I love my job, and I can’t wait for their wedding next […]
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 […]
Juliana and Dave got married downtown at The Colonnade. You can tell a lot about people by the company they keep. I knew I would like working again with these two after their engagement session, but I wasn’t prepared for how sweet and completely hilarious Juliana and Dave’s wedding party would be. This day was such a treat. […]
This has probably been the best summer of my life. Maybe it just feels that way because we lost most of last summer to nausea and home renovations. Although I think it’s actually because seeing Ellis show the first signs of himself not as a baby but as a little boy has brought so much joy into our home. […]
We started Liz and Jim’s engagement session at their South End condo. For city-dwellers they have access to some great outdoor spaces including a cozy deck and a plot in their community garden. I had so much fun seeing the city through their eyes and experiences. And I can’t wait for their wedding in Rhode […]
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a wedding with so many variables run so remarkably smooth. Thanks to Beverly and Nick’s planning (and two extremely helpful sisters committed to keeping everything on track) no one had to worry much about the logistics. Instead, everyone could just enjoy the celebration. The ceremony was at Harvard’s Memorial Church and […]
