There's nothing like that end of summer, perfect sunset, ridiculously in love, engagement session glow!! So much fun with Lauren and Sam in Stonington over the weekend!! 💍🥂🍾

Both grew up in opposite sides of CT, but it took their sisters going to college together in North Carolina to introduce them. One four-hour first date later and Lauren says she knew she was going to fall in love with Sam. Sam says the love was just always there.

They're saying their "I Do's" at Johnathan Edwards Winery next September, and say they can't wait to dance and party the night away as husband and wife!! 💃 🪩 🕺

The joy of my life for 12 years. The kindest soul, the smartest student, the warmest smile, the biggest heart, the best daughter, the sweetest friend, the silliest girl, the toughest athlete, the most loving sister, the brightest light in any room. I wish I could take credit for how wonderful this precious person is, but she was honestly born this way. We are just the lucky, lucky people who were chosen to walk this life with her. Happy birthday, my angel Noella. Thank you for every minute of these 12 years. I would be lost without you. I love you isn't enough, but I love you anyway, my Tula. My Nono. My first.

I KNOW!!! Not a wedding, but I'm just SO EXCITED with how gorgeous Emily's senior portraits came out, I HAD TO SHARE THEM HERE!!!

This session was an absolute dream...even though Duxbury Beach was SO WINDY!!! Emily is a stunning, smart, talented, incredibly sweet senior at Abington High, and it was such an honor for me to get to celebrate this special season of her life with her.

Congrats and best of luck, Emily!!!

xoxo,
Rachel

National Daughter Day!!! Not sure if this is really a thing, but I’m always happy to talk about these beautiful girls of mine. Noella...the daughter that taught me about unconditional love, and Elowen...the daughter that taught me to believe in miracles. Polar opposites in almost every way, and yet they fit together so perfectly. It is my greatest wish that they grow up loving and relying on each other the way I adore and lean on my sister. Not that everything is roses and rainbows, these two know better than anyone how to completely and totally drive each other to the brink of insanity (usually dragging me along with them). Almost six years apart, I know there are going to be distant years, someone will be left out, hearts will be broken, but I genuinely believe these precious daughters of mine ultimately have each other’s back. I know how deeply they love each other. I see them holding hands when they think I’m not looking...I watch them brush each other’s hair, and share treats, and read to each other. I feel beyond lucky to have been given the gift of these girls. I am thankful every day. Every minute. Every breath. I love them, I love them, I love them.
