pause for a second
because this is what real love looks like

not perfect weather
not perfect timing
just the two of them… and one very determined Boston squirrel

this is the kind of love story I live to photograph 🤍

I’m going to get emotional today 🥹🥹🥹

From capturing the very first flirty looks..
to standing beside you during some of the most meaningful days you’ll ever experience..
and now even loving your little babies..

Somewhere along the way, you stopped being just my clients.

You became my people. 🤍

I started this journey wanting to capture beautiful moments… but I never expected to witness entire love stories unfold in front of me, and to still be there as those stories kept growing.

Watching your lives change, your families grow, and your milestones continue long after the wedding day is something I will never take for granted.

I’m so incredibly thankful for every hug, every happy tear, every “can you photograph this next chapter too?” message.

This job gave me more than a career.
It gave me lifelong friendships.

And that means everything to me. 🥹

Something beautiful has been quietly unfolding behind the scenes this year… ✨

I’ve been pouring my heart into new ideas, fresh inspiration, and creative direction that feels more me than ever. I truly can’t wait to start sharing what I’ve been working on with you all soon. This next chapter feels special. 🤍

Stay close — it’s going to be a beautiful one.

Vibing at the Aldrich Mansion!!!! ✨🏰

I get asked all the time what my favorite venue is… and honestly? This. Is. It.
Aldrich Mansion — without a doubt!!!

Here’s why I’m obsessed:
• It’s STUNNING. Every corner. Inside, outside, up the grand staircases, all the way down to that massive, dreamy bridal suite. 😍
• The church on property? A literal fairytale. ⛪️ And the hidden side rooms… they give me the angles I’ve always dreamed of shooting.
• THE STAFF. I cannot hype them enough. I have never been treated better at a venue. Need help carrying gear? They’re there. Need to eat with the bride & groom? Absolutely. Lost my flash in the grass? They found it and kept it safe (angels!!!). Needed a ride up that big hill? They swooped right in. Truly the best — kind, helpful, never intrusive.
• Food + bar = chef’s kiss. 🤌
• And the overall vibe… it’s everything I love. Warm, romantic, European old-money chateau energy. Ocean views, mansion views, gardens, pathways, staircases, balconies — it’s endless magic. ✨

I’m so grateful every time I get to shoot at Aldrich. And even more grateful for my beautiful couple — their love glows no matter what, but running around this property on a rainy, romantic day with them? Easily the highlight of mine. 🤍

Happy Thanksgiving everyone 🤍 I hope you all hug your loved ones so tight and eat till you pop!!!
