As you know, all of my seniors are special to me—each one connected through teaching, music, or friendship. But sometimes, you get the joy of capturing your most beautiful niece in one of the most beautiful places on earth.

Laney, you are the epitome of poise and grace. You shine with a beauty that is both powerful and quiet—rooted in love, strength, and true brilliance. Spending time with you and your mom was such a gift, and what a perfect evening it was.

I am beyond proud of you—for all that you are now and all that you will become. Keep shining, lovely one. The world is yours. xo Laney

When I first met Zoe, she was 3. She came into the preschool classroom with her mother and positively lit up when she saw the blank canvas on the easel. She grabbed the paintbrush, looked at her mother with huge, inspired eyes and said (and I quote) "Mom, can I Jackson Po***ck?" And she did, all over the classroom, and me, and the other teachers. And I knew then that I would love her forever. After that we wrote some musicals together, we played some piano, I watched her dance and choreograph, make art, I listened to her stories when she returned from Spain for a semester last year. I watched her
grow. right. up.

I got to do her portraits on a couple different evenings this week. It was impossibly fun! We talked about her plans going forward. She'll be applying to a bunch of schools near and far. And guess what she'll study? Just like that 3 year old I met so long ago. She'll study art history.

My job is impossibly good.

Congratulations, Zoe! I can't wait to see what happens next.

I've had the privilege of knowing most of the seniors I photograph for much of their lives. I love how each of their stories is unique, and I strive to capture them in a way that reflects my understanding of who they are. This remarkable individual (whose highlights album will soon emerge from my collection) is as vibrant, soulful, and full of life as she appears in this silhouetted image from the other night. Autumn is, without a doubt, my favorite season—especially when I get to experience evenings like these.

Spending time with Lilah and her family is pure magic. Lilah and I have known each other for a long time. We wrote musicals together. We spent time in the halls of Breakwater. I've been lucky enough to capture her beautiful spirit for nearly a decade. Last night was no different. Look out world, Lilah is coming.

Sometimes you get to do a shoot like this one and it’s EVERYTHING. More to come of this beautiful spirit (and her beautiful sister) but I couldn’t wait another minute to post this one.

I was lucky enough to be able to capture not one - but two amazing humans in the past week! What a joy it is being around a senior with the world at their fingertips! Jack, you are already an amazing brother, son and businessman😲! It was so fun hanging out with you and your beautiful family. I wish you the best of everything as you venture into your last year of high school!

It is so much fun to capture a beautiful soul like this girl on a gorgeous summer day in Maine. It's even more magical when that beautiful soul is your niece! I got to travel up to her home on a lake and capture her in her hometown. Graci, it was such a joy working with you on this project. I cannot wait to see where you go from here - right to the stars! I love you

As a general rule, I don't take on weddings as a photographer BUT when one of your dearest students from many moons ago asks you to photograph her wedding, there's only one answer: YES. This wedding was so full of love and life and sweetness - such an intoxicating event of two people in love. I couldn't stop smiling. Congratulations, Gaelyn and Tyler. Here's to a lifetime of love, joy and happiness.
