Let TARA photograph your life!

I have to pinch myself all the time – I literally get to spend my weeks photographing expecting mamas, births, newborns and families, then editing them in the quiet of my office! If you could see my face while I edit, smiling like an idiot at my monitor while I cull and edit all these […]

Nowadays 100% of my couples come to me organically, which is an incredible blessing (and the result of almost 20 years of hard work!). They come from venues at which I am a preferred vendor, through past brides and other clients, through friends and family, couples I meet at my amazing gym (Seacoast Kettlebell in […]

In the fall of 2017 this mama called me for a maternity session before she welcomed her second baby into the world – she was referred to me by one of my closest friends so I knew right off that I would love working with this family! We met in Newburyport on a gorgeous fall […]

If there were ever a wedding day that I have photographed in 18 years (hundreds of weddings) that has embodied all that is love, it was this wedding day. Even as I write this post, I feel overwhelmed by the need to fully and accurately portray the feeling of this day, but ultimately I will […]

I truly believe everything happens for a reason. Every person you meet comes into your life for a reason. You may not know why for years, or you may know right away. Some people we meet briefly and wonder if you’ll ever see them again. About 3 years ago, while my husband’s best friend from […]

Who is up for a great love story? You must be if you’re here reading this! My favorite part of meeting my couples is hearing their love stories: when they met, how they met, first impressions etc. Kaleigh and Jacob are high school sweethearts and got engaged last February 2017 on the decks at Martingale […]

Emily + Justin

January 16, 2018

I love love love photographing spring weddings in New Hampshire! It is such an amazing way to start off the season of shooting, and when it’s right in my hometown, it’s even better! Emily and Justin called me to photograph their intimate wedding reception at the Rivermill at Dover Landing here in Dover, NH where […]

Alissa + Ryan

December 13, 2017

August in New England does not scream ski season, so Loon Mountain might seem like an unlikely place to host a wedding, but for mountain lovers like Alissa and Ryan, the beauty of the White Mountains knows no season. Alissa and Ryan first fell in love with the area, and each other, while studying at […]

Ashley + Al

December 7, 2017

The wedding day is a wild and crazy ride of emotions – for everyone – even without factoring in weather! On August 5th we all woke up (here in Southern New Hampshire) acutely aware that the weather forecast said 80% chance of rain…until 3:30. And guess what time we were starting our first look at? […]

Ashley + Al are Engaged!

December 6, 2017

I had so much fun running around Charlestown with Ashley & Al for their engagement session! We started out at The Ironsides, an awesome little pub in Charlestown, for a beer and then spent the next nearly two hours on foot going from place to place looking for all the best spots with the best […]

you're in!
