Cozy Farm Engagement Session at Echo Hill Farm in Deerfield, NH

Posted In: *Engagements

If you're looking for a relaxed, fun and cozy engagement session, I highly recommend going somewhere special and getting away for a night or two - like maybe renting the guest suite at Echo Hill Farm in Deerfield, New Hampshire surrounded by fields and farm animals. Laura & I had been chatting over Instagram for MONTHS about an engagement session for her and Parris, and in the end we settled on a farm in an area she knew growing up - and they rented the most ADORABLE suite right at the farm for the weekend to just e[...]

Beauty & The Beast Themed Maternity at Mack’s Apples in Londonderry, NH

Posted In: *Themed Maternity

Imagination was such a huge part of my childhood. My younger sister and I would imagine whole worlds and alternate universes that we would play these elaborately crafted characters in full stories as we stayed outside long after the sun had gone down. As an adult, I've found ways to apply that imagination to bringing different visions into reality, including creating some of the most beautiful styled shoots. The world is but a canvas to the imagination.~Henry David Thoreau Over the last few years, I've added that[...]

Vibrant Traditional Thai Wedding at Hidden Hills in Rindge, NH

Posted In: *Weddings | Hidden Hills | New Hampshire

I love love. I know I say that a lot (on my website, in my branding, in everyday life...) but I truly love seeing love in all its forms. And I really love seeing people in love embrace everything about their partner and celebrate the things that they hold most dear together. Maneeya & Isaac had a beautiful traditional Thai ceremony at Hidden Hills in Rindge, New Hampshire in late summer and y’all, I had never photographed a ceremony like this and it was one of the most beautiful things... It didn’t[...]

Fall Greenhouse Engagement Session in Wilton, NH

Posted In: *Engagements | Featured

Weather is always unpredictable - even for those who don't live in New England. When I met up with Jakob & Courtney, we decided to not let the fickle ways of the weather get in our way by having a greenhouse engagement session at House by the Side of the Road! You guys - there was a tiny pond full of turtles. And there was also a cat just chillin’ amongst the plants. We had a blast walking through the greenery and admiring the cacti as Jakob and Courtney were nonstop giggles and piggybacks and just so much sweet fu[...]

Heartfelt Rustic Barn Wedding in Aroostook County, ME

Posted In: *Weddings | Aroostook County | Maine | Old Bugbee Homestead

This wedding hit me in the feels on many levels. My childhood was spent running through those potato fields to the very church their ceremony was held in. My summers were spent writing my name on the walls of the cabins at the campground where they first met and had their First Look. I spent 9 years of my life in Aroostook County, Maine and spent so much time around Katie's family when we were young - and she was just a few years old when my family moved away. Her mother actually reached out to me long before Katie &[...]

“Into the Woods” Winter Styled Elopement at The Sunset Hill House in Sugar Hill, NH

Posted In: *Elopements | *Weddings | New Hampshire | The Sunset Hill House

Sometimes things fall apart so they can fall back together in a better way than you could have ever imagined. As a lover of winter in New Hampshire, I had this vision of taking outdoor elopements in winter to the next level - to give those couples who choose to start their marriage with an adventure just the two of them something extra that made their day even more special. I decided to bring this vision to life at one of my recent LOFT Workshops and when our initial location fell through less than a mon[...]
