Boston + New England Wedding Photography, Boudoir and Portraits bio picture

Hello.

I'm a Boston wedding photographer with a photojournalistic approach.  I also love fun, candid portrait photography and boudoir sessions.  My style is modern, organic and emotional, with a little bit of goofball thrown in.  My specialties?  Decisive moments, big hugs, dramatic backgrounds, perfect details, sideways glances, goofy expressions and raw emotion.

My favorite things in the world are beer (a pint of Manny's or my hubby's home brewed porter), food (cheese or sushi, yes please!) and warm, geeky, loving, smoochy people and their doggies.  If you're looking for my website, click here.  And don't forget to leave a comment on one of the posts below - comments make me happy.


Pioneer Park Puyallup Wedding: Heather + Gage

Last Saturday was another beautiful day for a wedding, this time down in Puyallup.  I first met Heather and her mom over a year and a half ago, and it was fun seeing how the wedding theme had developed since we met.  In fact, all I knew going into Pioneer Park Pavilion on Saturday afternoon was that the colors were green and pink (so fresh!)  It was a very cool surprise when I spotted the underlying theme to the day … Red Sox!  I was particularly delighted as I’m now officially heading to Boston at the end of the summer.  :-)

Heather’s family hails from Boston, and both her and Gage are HUGE Sox fans – so much so that Gage felt it was utterly appropriate to propose at Fenway Park during a game.  That’s courage for you!  I love the way they threaded the theme through their wedding day, without it ever screaming sports.  Gage’s Red Sox cufflinks … the tables named “Green Monster”, “Yawkey Way” and “Fenway Park” … the photo gallery next to the guest book with their Fenway Park engagement kiss … the rock back down the aisle to the Dropkick Murphies … It was very very cool.

Thank you to Heather and Gage’s family and friends for being so welcoming.  And extra special thanks to the ladies for getting their cowboy boot groove on so early in the day (I adore those shots!) and to Gage’s best man for lots of pointers throughout.  It was a very fun day. Oh, and after you’ve seen the teasers, check out the highlights slideshow, here.
