Welcome to the World, Scarlet! - New Baby - Lowell, MA

Scarlet came into the world a little early, but with two loving parents, some of the best care in the nation, and with lots and prayers and love - she is now thriving and 7.5 weeks old. Weighing in at 3 lbs 11 ounces, Scarlet was a perfect doll for us while I snapped some pictures of her with Mommy and Daddy.

It was a pleasure to photograph this beautiful little family, who I'm happy to call friends. My boys are excited to get to meet this "teeny baby" and they'll toughen her up when she's old enough to play with them. She is already such a little character with a little personality and her daddy has big plans for her to play hockey one day!

Enjoy a few precious moments from this sweet visit Scarlet!
This image captures the "diva" attitude. She loves to rip out her feeding tube and is always throwing up her arms.

Turn the Raining into Dancing!!! Lindsay & David, Peabody, MA - Wedding Photography

Nothing could stop the fun and love that was about to happen on Sunday, July 26th at the Smith Barn in Peadoby! Lindsay and David were getting married, rain or shine!!!! Thankfully the sun broke through as they exchanged vows inside and the rest of the night was beautiful!

I had a great opportunity to work with my favorite photographer, Laura Wagner Photography, and share in this beautiful day. 
Her blog is beautiful of this amazing wedding, so I wanted to show you all some from my "second-shooter perspective."

As a second shooter I get to be a bit more relaxed and try to catch some different angles and expressions. This wedding was SO EASY! Every corner held a different chance to catch a perfect shot. I had a blast seeing this gorgeous couple become "one"! 


    A view from above! This barn was such a great location!!!!


Best of all, when the Bride and Groom are off with the photographer I can take some time to snap pictures of details of the day. Like these gorgeous homemade bouquets. 






Seriously, It doesn't get more manly than this. A "viking man ring", chest hair, awesome beard...need I say more. And...it doesn't get more GORGEOUS than this lovely bride. Such an iconic look. 



And, even this "not your perfect shot-shot" - I had to keep it because It's so cute and seeing them welcomed by all their guests before their first dance was such a sweet moment!
I love being a second photographer and getting to share in so many wedding days!

CONGRATS MR & MRS GALE!

TenBrink Family - Kids and Family Portraits

 You don't know BRAVE until you've met this Mom & Dad! They have been on a five week road trip with children ages 4, 2.75, and 1!!!! They are spending five weeks on the road and one of those weeks we were able to meet up in Wisconsin! Meghan is my oldest friend, in that we've been friends the longest! She and I were both in our mom's wombs together and destined to be best friends. It's been amazing to grow up together, even from afar, and to see our families grow too! She has three of the most adorable children who each have their own special sweet personality.

M & E - Kids Portraits, Cuba City, WI

I must say, I have the cutest family members ever! These two darlings belong to my brother, but they have a huge spot in my heart. I love seeing them change and grow and had a blast playing with them this summer.
They will be 5 & 3 at the end of the summer and needed a few photos to capture their adorable faces. Mason had lost his first tooth, to a brick wall, only this morning and had stitches on his chin: typical 5 year old boy!




 Elise is so gorgeous and loves to keep up with the boys.
