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.

Discovery Park Engagement Session: Nikki + Zach

Things are crazy around here!  I’m getting a little behind with my blogging, and it’s only just the start of the busy season.  Then again, it’s hopefully almost the end of the madness and mayhem that is the selling of our little house here in Seattle.  That’s right, the rumors are true – we’re selling...

Small is Extraordinarily Beautiful: Colleen & Chris

This is the busiest weekend I’ve ever had, with two weddings, three boudoir sessions and an engagement shoot all in the space of one long weekend … but it started perfectly last Thursday with Colleen and Chris’ tiny yet utterly amazing wedding at Discovery Park.
