I try not to get too sappy on here, because I weirdly try to mask the fact that I am incredibly sensitive and in my feels 24/7.

But I was talking on the phone with my sister the other day and she was telling me that all she wants for her birthday this year are family photos. And she started getting emotional talking about how she feels like time is slipping through her fingers and her kids are changing so quickly that she can barely keep up. And how photos are really the only thing that make her feel like she can slow it all down a little. Or not even slow it down, but at least have something to look back on when she can’t remember exactly what this time in her life felt like.

And I don’t know, something about hearing her say that really got to me.

Maybe because I feel the exact same way. Maybe because I spend so much of my life photographing other people’s families and then realize I haven’t even booked our own family photos this year (which sent me into an immediate panic after we hung up).

But I keep thinking about how much of our lives we just assume we’re going to remember. And how much of it we probably won’t.

I look back at photos of my daughter from even six months ago and feel like I’m looking at a completely different little person. And I was there for all of it. Every single day. Yet somehow I already forget things about those versions of her.

I think that’s the part that gets me the most. You can be so present in your life and still have it all go by too quickly.

Anyway, I don’t really know where I’m going with this other than to say that I think photographs might be one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves. And I know that probably sounds like something a photographer is supposed to say, but I mean it in the most personal way possible.

Take the photos. Get in them too. Even when life feels chaotic or you don’t particularly love how you look or you keep telling yourself you’ll do it next year.

Because one day you’re going to want to remember what all of this looked like. And I think you’ll be really glad you did.

hi, I’m Mere❣️! lover of deep connections, terrified of small talk and anything that feels inauthentic, and a very passionate music appreciator (aka my love language). forever obsessing over documenting my little life and even more obsessed about documenting yours ( :

C & B exchanged the sweetest vows on the grounds of one of Manchester’s most historic, and to Christina and Ben, most nostalgic homes, surrounded by everyone they love. From the very start of the day, it was so clear how much these two mean to the people around them. Christina and Ben had poured so much of themselves into planning every last detail, and seeing it all come together was really something special. And then there was their friends and family, making sure that after all of their hard work, they could just enjoy the day and take it all in.

I’ve known this family and so many of their loved ones for years, so there were familiar faces everywhere I turned. It felt very much like catching up with people I’ve had the pleasure of knowing through so many different seasons of life.

The longer I photograph weddings, the more I find myself paying attention to the relationships that exist long before the wedding day itself. The family and friends who have watched you grow up and somehow all end up in the same place to celebrate this next chapter. And while I will always appreciate the sentimental details and all of the thought that goes into a wedding, it’s the people and their interactions that stay with me, and this day will stay with me for a long time.

All this to say, cheers to you, Christina and Ben. It’s been a joy watching you and your family grow these past few years, and such an honor to document this special special day for you and everyone that loves you.

This time of year always feels like a blur. The busiest season of my work somehow coincides with the season I most desperately want to slow down for.

There’s something so comforting about the changing seasons, even when they remind us how quickly everything is moving. Putting our Halloween decorations up a little too early, walking my daughter to school and talking about all the pumpkins we pass along the way. These little routines that I already know I’ll look back on and miss.

Lately I keep noticing how much bigger her hands look than they did just a few months ago, and wondering how so much can change without me even realizing it.

And somewhere in the busyness of documenting everyone else’s lives, I forget to document my own. Which feels a little ironic, knowing how much these photographs mean to me.

A reminder to myself to pick up my camera at home more often. To photograph the ordinary days, the familiar little routines, and all the things I know I’ll wish I had more of someday. That’s what this is all about afterall.

Bringing your first baby home.

I wish I could return to that moment time and time again.

Everything feels different, as if you’re all experiencing a new world at the same time. You start to appreciate the little corners of your home in a new light - maybe because that’s where your gaze lands while you keep your tiny soulmate fed, or maybe you’re like me and suddenly have a lot of time to mentally redesign your entire house.

Either way, life feels slow and intentional. The days somehow stretch on forever while you’re simultaneously wishing you could bottle them up.

And I think that’s why documenting the space you bring your babies home to matters so much.

Because someday you’ll want to remember more than how teeny they were. You’ll want to remember the light in their nursery, the couch you spent hours curled up on together, the bedroom where you learned how to be a family, the little corners of your home that quietly held so much of your life.

Your home becomes the backdrop to this brand-new version of you, and even the most ordinary spaces start to mean something.

As if it should always be this way.

As I tear up writing this, I can’t even begin to express my excitement for these incredible humans

Just three more days until you’re officially husband and wife, and I’m feeling allllll of the feelings. If you ever have any doubt that soulmates exist, let these two be all the proof you need. Love truly found you both when you needed it most, and I’m so incredibly honored to celebrate you for the rest of my life♥️

Ticky tacky!!!!

to my best best friend - the one who encouraged me to start this career in the first place, the one who always always has your heart in mind before anything else, and now the one I get to photograph as she steps into another beautiful chapter

I’ve gotten to watch you become so many versions of yourself over the years, and now I get to watch you bloom into motherhood yet again

I love you more than words, and I already love sweet girl so much. The luckiest to call you my best.

nothing like an in-home newborn session on a rainy summer morning🤎

just you, your little fam, and that soft, natural light coming through the windows making it all look even dreamier than it is

these early days are so incredibly special - the sleepy snugs, tiny wrinkled feet, the way your whole world feels like it’s shifted overnight

it’s all so fleeting in a way that’s hard to comprehend while you’re living it

I feel incredibly lucky to be the one invited into these little pockets of your life to bottle it all up exactly as is, so you can come back and relive these moments for the rest of your life

briefly emerging from my editing cave to post this sweet fam who I’ve had the privilege of documenting through pregnancy, the newborn days, and now Liam’s first birthday 🤎

time really does fly by, and ironically, the moments we want to hold onto the tightest are always the ones that seem to pass by the quickest

so consider this your reminder: whether you book a professional photoshoot or not, take the photos. because one day, you’ll be so glad you have the little moments you thought you’d remember forever
