Every time.
Every! Time!
I get a tiny little precious bundle in my arms, and I just don’t want to leave! Perhaps I’m in the wrong business?! Maybe I should Nanny?! Bring on the snuggles!!

Ohhhh you guys, seriously though! Baby Wes is just this precious little peanut! You can’t help but fall in love with his perfect little face, little blonde lashes, pouty little lip… those little ears and feet… that sleepy smile……gahhhh!!

It was love at first sight!

♥

See for yourself.
Guard your hearts ladies & gents…. you’ve been warned!

Good job Mom & Dad!
He’s a keeper!

There’s not a single infant or infant session that i don’t LOVE… I can admit that!

I’m just a sucker for those bebes and I’m SO excited when I hear that one of my Bride’s is having one!

Well this little bundle is certainly NO exception!!
She just melts my heart, and I know that she’ll melt yours too!

The little dimples, pouty lip, itty bitty feet, squishy cheeks….

Heart melted! ♥

I’m here to make your Monday better!

Meet Josh and Kelley.

They were married on 3.14.15 ; Pi Day.

The relation of pi to a circle, such as the circle of a wedding band… as well as relating pi to PIE, like the ones given to their guests as favors….
A++ for planning on that one!! I absolutely loved it!

♥          ♥          ♥

♥          ♥          ♥

Not only was that pretty awesome, but they’re pretty awesome as well!
Kelley, the clear organizer of the pair, had all the details of the day accounted for and taken care of, and she made sure nobody was left out along the way. Josh, well he wanted to be sure everyone not only had a great time, but knew how much he loved appreciated everyone involved in this day.
Sometimes that appreciation came in the form of a giant squeezy hug!

The other night night I awoke to a text message.

No emergency… my brother in-law had proposed, a day earlier than he’d planned, to his girlfriend Ashley.

(& she said YES! Phew!)

I sent back a dreary, happy, congratulations reply and went back to bed laughing about how he couldn’t wait one more day, and wondering about all the hints he’d likely dropped that had her on to him.

The next day proved to be a beautiful, sunny one, and as I laughed to myself about all this extra time they’d have on their hands, (since he’d proposed a night earlier than planned) I thought… maybe I can get them out for some engagement photos?!

That was a pretty great idea.

It was cold, but Ryan and Ashley are a fun and funny couple, and both were still in that super happy, just engaged, omg zone… so it was a really good time. I honestly can’t remember the last time I laughed so hard…on the ground…in the road.

♥

Yep.

Congrats again, you two! ♥

I’ve never understood people who don’t like Weddings…

Shane and Jaime’s Wedding Day, however, would have certainly changed that crazy person’s mind! From the beautiful, yet relaxed Camp Bournedale setting, the personalized details throughout, and of course the smiles and fits of laughter that filled the entire day.

Plus, the dancing…. the hilariously awesome dancing. What’s not to love?!

It was an awesome experience being able to capture it all!

Especially since I LOVE weddings!

So we know I love babies…. I get that “empty arm syndrome” or whatever, whenever they’re near!!

Now picture this: TWIN. BABY. BOYS.

Yayyyy me!

I was so happy to get this referral (Thanks Rich!) and to be able to photograph these two!

At four months, they weren’t quite sitting on their own, and were sometimes a little reluctant with the smiles… and while there were some places in the house, and an outfit we didn’t get to, I almost left feeling like, “did I get what we wanted?”

There’s always that point when babies, kids… sometimes grownups, are just done. The boys had done a great job and were super patient with me… I just had to go with my gut that what we had was IT.

Wait for it…..

♥          ♥          ♥

HELLO!!
That is absolutely IT!!
How adorable are they?!

♥

This is how it started….

A lot of good ol Pinterest and a recreated vision for Save the Dates, that suited Dan and Jenna just perfectly.

It was like…. they had me at “Hello”.

Seriously though… I couldn’t wait to share in Dan and Jenna’s  Wedding Day, and was so excited to be able to capture it all for them!

♥

As expected, the day was filled with many beautiful and thoughtful details, as well as lots of fun, loving, laughing, silly people. We all know that I love the thought in the details, but truly, it’s being surrounded by great people that really makes the day so special and memorable.

Jenna, of course, was not only a stunningly beautiful bride, but was full of laughs and smiles (& maybe a few monkey noises….) throughout the day. There were some teary moments, though happy tears brought on by a thoughtful husband-to-be, seemed perfectly acceptable to all who watched.

(and phoned their husbands to take note of it!)

Then there was this…. this look when he saw her… the look that I live for!

Good job Dan!

After the “I do’s” the party was officially started!

There was dancing, and a few toasts to kick off the night… not to pick favorites, but one was a rap soo…. well i’m picking favorites!

I was so glad to have the ok ahead of time to snatch these two off the dance floor to capture them alone outside before the sun went down!

Dan & Jenna, your Wedding Day was all that Jenna Pinned it to be!

♥

Jokes aside, it really was beautiful, full of smiles and laughter, and a really great reflection of who you are together, and the love you have for each other.

Congratulations!

Mark and Ashley’s Wedding Day was beautiful.

Spring decided to be be kind and fill the sky with warmth and abundant sunshine to celebrate the day. The Jones River Trade went through it’s usual transformation, this time looking so beautifully shabby chic, with burlap, a little sparkle, and flowers galore.

Mark and Ashley both had their fair share of nerves, but you could practically see it all melt away as they met eyes down the aisle. Vows were exchanged outside in front of a beautifully decorated mantle, while tearful, happy mamas dabbed at their eyes. Love was truly in the air, and it was beautiful to capture.

Need I say it again?

It was truly a beautiful day, from beginning to end.

Congratulations Mark & Ashley!
Wishing you a long life of love and happiness together!

Paul & Sherica couldn’t have asked for a more gorgeous spring day to be married.

Definitely exceptional planning on their part!

Close friends, family, and interested passerby’s gathered to watch their Brewster Gardens ceremony.

Sherica was such a beautiful Bride, and Paul just beamed ear to ear as soon as he saw her. Once they locked eyes there was barely a moment they looked away from one another.

♥          ♥          ♥

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Paul & Sherica Goldstein!

I’m so glad to have had to opportunity to capture this beautiful day for the both of you!

Wayne & Tracy were made for each other.

The way they talk and interact, the way her face lights up when she tells the story of how they finally got together, and the way his eyes seem to smile as he watches her tell it… They make movies about this stuff!!

♥

Naturally, I was delighted to have the opportunity to capture all that and more, on their Wedding Day.

The day was beautiful, and every little detail was just so perfect and personalized.

Both Wayne & Tracy were so calm before the ceremony, and if they were nervous during it, you’d never have known. There was barely a moment that they weren’t looking into each other’s eyes, just beaming, ear to ear.

Tracy had her Mother’s wedding gown altered to wear during her ceremony. She also recently had a tattoo done, in memory of her father, which earned her the title “The Bride with the Dragon Tattoo”.

After the ceremony, Tracy quickly slipped into dress #2, grabbed her husband, and snuck away from the crowd to catch some fun shots of just the two of them, and distract the Groom.  Tracy had quite a surprise up her sleeve…

That’s right ladies & gents, that’s Rene Rancourt!

After the shock wore off, autographs given and Bruins cake eaten, there was dancing to be had… and this Bride & Groom came to dance!

It was an amazing and beautiful day that I was blessed to be able to share in, and now i get to share it with all of you!

Congratulations Wayne & Tracy!
