Emerson is Born!

April 21, 2017

Ever wondered what true bliss looks like? This is it ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^!!!!!! As you may know, I first started photographing births in April 2016 and what a wild, wild ride it has been! I have learned SO much in 1 year: the difference between dilating and effacing, that a “due date” is completely irrelevant and should […]

Last fall Stephanie walked up to my table at the Seacoast Mom & Baby Expo with that adorable pregnant belly of hers, pushing a stroller with her sweet boy Easton in it chillin’ out with a snack in hand. We immediately hit it off, both of us tearing up together over how difficult the transition […]

Last year that this time I was gearing up to be on-call for the very first time! Little Harlan was due April 22, and made his official arrival on April 26 at 7:23pm – and I was there to capture it all! Labor, delivery and all! See my blog post about his birth HERE. Lucky for […]

Calvin + Jessie

January 17, 2017

What a perfect way to start off a wedding season! Jessie and Calvin celebrated the majority of their wedding day at the gorgeous Red Barn at Outlook Farm in South Berwick, Maine, but this wedding day had SO much more to it! The day stated off with a traditional tea ceremony at the home of the […]

What an incredible night in Rye, NH last night!!! Megan and Joe drove all the way up from their home in Uxbridge, MA to meet up for dinner and an engagement session. We hadn’t had the chance to meet yet, and this was a great way to practice being comfortable in front of the camera […]

Harlan is Born!

May 2, 2016

Last Tuesday, April 26th at 5:38 pm I got the text that I had been awaiting for weeks:”Contractions 7 minutes apart…” My heart raced and adrenaline coursed through my body, hands shaking with excitement as I prepared to race out the door to Wentworth Douglass hospital to photograph the birth of Jamie’s third child. I’ve […]

One of my favorite emails I receive is the “Contact Form” email, when clients inquire for their photographic needs through my website. I never know what I will get – an expecting mother wants her birth documented or maybe a newborn session, a family portrait at the beach, an elopement, a mountaintop wedding, the list […]

I have so many sessions to blog, but I had to start with this most recent one! Chris and Bri have a special place in my heart. I photographed their wedding just a few years ago (see blog post HERE), and then I got to photograph their first daughter Teagan in July 2014. Fast forward […]

Anyone who knows me (even for a few minutes) knows that I LOVE to photograph expecting mothers – and their new, teeny tiny little babies! (I love it so much that I will be offering birth photography collections in the future, but that’s for another blog post!) Lucky for me, 2015 was nothing short of amazing […]

Elizabeth + Bill

August 18, 2015

Elizabeth and Bill celebrated their wedding day on Saturday at the lovely Beachmere Inn in Ogunquit, Maine. As a photographer, I swooned at the property because of its awesome portrait opportunities – and cringed at the blue skies and bright sun, but the clouds rolled in beautifully and right on que – just in time […]

you're in!
