After a lot of reflection (and a few tears), I’ve made the difficult decision to step back from photography—for now 🥺

This work has brought me into some of the most beautiful moments of people’s lives. I’ve witnessed vows whispered through tears, countless first dances watched by loved ones, and quiet, powerful love in all its forms. I’ve had the honor of watching my couples grow their families and documented their little ones along the way.

But something in me has shifted and the spark that once lit me up has really become dim…I know it’s time to slow down. I’ve run my business alongside my UX design career since 2018 and while it’s been rewarding, it’s led to many stressful times throughout the years.

This isn’t a goodbye to art or storytelling, just a pause to reflect on how to get that passion and spark back.

To every couple, every family, every soul who’s trusted me with their memories—thank you. Until next time ❤️

Felt all the love last weekend at Bridget and Eric’s wedding at The Lenox! Their first look, their vows, their reception 😍 can’t wait to share more photos from their special day!

A sweet in home family session ❤️

I’ve been photographing Chloe and Eric through so many life events: engagement, wedding, maternity and now a family session with their little one. It’s pretty sweet to be a part of so many memories with all the cool people I’ve photographed over the years 🥹

Bridget and Eric’s engagement session in Charlestown 🌸

We walked around Charlestown and caught up and chatted about how they envisioned their wedding being next year. We’ll be back in Boston to celebrate them in March!

I photographed Bridget’s sister’s wedding back in 2021 and feel so honored to be able to photograph their family again. Congratulations B & E!

**BUSINESS UPDATE**

After many years of documenting and capturing beautiful memories for so many amazing couples, I’ve decided to shift my focus to lifestyle portraits, local businesses, and smaller intimate weddings ✨

2024 will be my last year photographing larger, “traditional” weddings and being a wedding focused photographer. If we have already chatted about your wedding in 2024 and beyond, no need to fret; I am still so honored and excited to be documenting your special day!

As many of you know, I have been running my photography business alongside my UX design career. There have been many times I’ve gone weeks and months without a day off and I’m looking forward to a bit more work/life balance. I also want to focus more on building a community in my new home in the Seacoast and seeing how I can use my skills to help local businesses.

Thank you so much to all of my amazing clients over the years. Thank you for trusting me on one of your most important days and for giving me the honor of capturing all these beautiful moments. Without you, none of this could have flourished. I am eternally grateful.

This isn’t a complete goodbye to weddings; they will always have a special place in my heart. If you are planning a smaller wedding (50 guests or less), I would absolutely love to chat and be considered for your special day. If you’re not planning a wedding and want to have a lifestyle session (engagement, family, creative portrait, etc), I still would love to hear from you! ❤️

2024 will be the year I finally focus and dedicate to more of my passion projects. I hope you all stick around to see some magic ✨

I’m so stoked for this next adventure and I can’t wait to share it with all of you 🥰

Already looking forward to summertime in the Seacoast ☀️

M + C had their fun loving engagement session back in September! We headed over to Vaughn Woods State Park and ran around in the open field, dancing and laughing.

What I’m looking forward to most is finding cool locations for all types of photoshoots when I move to NH! If you already have something in mind, let’s chat!

I’ve been forcing myself to document my daily life and surroundings in a way that’s ✨romanticizing✨ my life and it’s been so, so good for my soul.

Mostly consisting of food pics this year 😅 but an ongoing goal of mine is to document all the things, people and food I experience every week
