Robyn and Pat’s Boston Engagement Session

Monday, February 27th, 2012

There’s a lot to love about photographing a newly-engaged couple, even more so when that couple doesn’t hesitate in the below-freezing temps and gusty wind to have fun and enjoy each other. Robyn, Pat, and I met yesterday morning to take some pictures around Boston, and despite some numb hands and feet we all had a really great time. I just recently met them but we seem to have a lot in common, and tons to talk about (so much that it took our minds off how incredibly freezing it was). Robyn and Pat are getting married this September at the Black Swan Country Club in Georgetown, MA, and I am so happy to be photographing their wedding. There’s really a lot of love and humor between these two, and I hope the photos tell that story.

JD and Alyssa’s Bristow, Va Wedding

Friday, February 17th, 2012

JD and Alyssa were married late last month at Bristow Manor. Perfect weather, gorgeous location, incredible music, and a bride and groom relaxed and happy. I’ve always loved winter weddings (even if this one happened to be 65-degrees)!

The Frey boys

Wednesday, February 8th, 2012

I often get questions along the lines of “How can we be sure the kids will behave for their pictures?” before family and kid portrait sessions. What has proved true every single time is that it’s better if they don’t! Capture the sprinting, crazy, jumping, tickling, laughing kids they are now. Having the perfect everyone-in-white-shirts-and-khakis portrait on your wall is lovely, but have a record also of the days when sticks were swords and blankets superhero capes. Remember your family as it is right now.

This is Evan and Nathan. As they are right now. Happy, funny, fast, and overjoyed by a surprise 65-degree day in January.
