CALM, CONFIDENT GUIDANCE
"She took the time to get to know us, and it showed in every photo."
from Hannah
Whether you’re getting married in a tent in your grandparents’ backyard, riding to your reception on your family’s lobster boat, or saying your vows at the same garden estate as your parents did 30 years ago, your photos will focus on connection, emotion, and family.
Because you’ll be fully present and enjoying this unforgettable gathering with your favorite people, your wedding photos won’t look like any other wedding. They’ll feel true to the way it all felt: joyful, authentic, and full of love and light.
Your celebration is shaped by the people and places that matter most.
After photographing countless weddings, I know –
Your photos will never feel dated because they’ll be:
CLASSIC NEW ENGLAND STYLE
I am a sucker for lighthouses, sailboats, and all the historic mansions and garden estates that New England has to offer. Whatever your vision, let’s make it come to life through your images.
REFINED + REASSURING
A calm, confident experience paired with thoughtfully refined images that never feel dated. For many of my couples, I become their photographer for life.
FAMILY-FOCUSED
Even on your wedding day, I prioritize connections between people as you host your guests. Getting a lot of photos of friends and family, connections and emotions and I truly believe this translates into authentic images for my clients.
"She managed to take incredible photos of so many of our guests too!"
from Ryan
After 11 years of experience, I’ve seen proof that these images only grow more meaningful with time.
The first time I watched my daughter pull our own wedding album off the shelf, I got to relive the day through her eyes and realized that these memories are now being passed on to her. I don’t take lightly that your photographs will be looked at, loved, and passed down for generations.
Because of this, I bring a calm, confident presence that allows your day to unfold with ease. With over a decade of experience in wedding photography, I’m still continually refining my craft so that you’re supported by someone experienced, steady, and fully in control.

Timeless Images
no. 4
I've been married for 11 years and photographed countless weddings, and here’s what I know:
I want you to look back years from now and think, “Oh yes…we love each other…what a special day.” It’s not just about the bride and groom—it’s about everyone who gathered to celebrate you, and ultimately, it’s about your marriage, your life together, and the moments you’ll remember forever.
My hope is that working together feels steady, reassuring, and deeply personal—that you walk away not just with beautiful images, but with the quiet confidence that your story was seen, honored, and preserved exactly as it deserves to be.
The images you’ll treasure aren’t about perfection—they’re about feeling.
