Raven & Marshall

 

The Quabbin Reservoir

A couple sharing a romantic proposal moment on a rocky beach shore with mountains and water in the background.

Raven and Marshall’s proposal will always hold a special place for me. Marshall is an old college friend, and reconnecting years later to be trusted with such an important moment was incredibly meaningful. This was my very first proposal session, and we approached it with intention, carefully planning every detail so the moment would feel effortless and true.

At the water’s edge of the Quabbin Reservoir, the plan unfolded perfectly. Quiet, emotional, and deeply personal, the proposal felt suspended in time. After the “yes,” we flowed straight into a relaxed engagement-style couples session to celebrate, full of laughter, movement, and that just-engaged energy that’s impossible to fake.

First proposal officially in the books, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the trust. Here’s to many more moments like this, beautifully planned, thoughtfully executed, and honestly felt.

Hannah & Caleb

 

The Ranch - Southwick, Ma

A sequence of four action shots showing a bride and groom playfully chasing each other on a paved path outdoors.

Hannah and Caleb were married on a glowing November afternoon at the prestigious Ranch Golf Club in Southwick, Massachusetts. Late-fall light wrapped the grounds beautifully, setting the tone for a day that felt elegant, calm, and deeply intentional. Just steps away, the bridal suite—a centuries-old, lovingly preserved home offered the most stunning backdrop for getting ready. The texture, the history, the quiet light pouring through old windows… it was a dream for storytelling.

From the start, Hannah and Caleb fully leaned into the art. They trusted the process, gave me complete creative freedom, and allowed space for instinct, movement, and emotion to lead the way. That kind of trust is everything, it opens the door to imagery that feels honest, elevated, and alive. The result was a gallery filled with depth, intimacy, and moments that couldn’t have been staged, only felt.

Jessica & Cylas

 

The Log Cabin - Holyoke, Ma

A couple in wedding attire sits together on grass at dusk with white floral decorations and flowing fabric nearby.

Jess and Cylas’ wedding unfolded on a crisp fall day, wrapped in peak New England foliage and the kind of quiet beauty that only autumn can bring. Their celebration was a thoughtful blending of cultures, traditions, and people, warm, intentional, and deeply personal. From the ceremony overlooking rolling color to the intimate moments shared throughout the day, everything felt grounded in meaning.

The couple chose to skip a first look, which meant all of their bride and groom portraits happened as the sun dipped below the horizon. Rather than fight the fading light, we leaned into it, embracing direct flash and the energy of the evening as it naturally unfolded. The result was bold, emotive, and timeless imagery that reflected who Jess and Cylas truly are. Weddings don’t always follow perfect lighting conditions—and that’s where experience matters. I pride myself on adapting to any situation, reading the room, and delivering stunning, intentional galleries that my couples will love for a lifetime.

Tiffany & Brian

 

Worthington, Ma

A couple in dark gothic attire embrace dramatically in a moody field under cloudy skies.

Some weddings just feel like art in motion and Tiffany and Brian’s Halloween wedding was exactly that. Set at a friend’s home in the quiet woods of Worthington, Massachusetts, this day was the perfect mix of spooky, and heartwarming.

Tiffany and Brian both wore black, not just because it was Halloween, but because it was them. The look was bold, timeless, and effortlessly cool. Surrounded by just a handful of their closest friends, the day unfolded slowly, without rush or pretense. Every moment felt intentional, from the way they exchanged glances during the ceremony to the laughter echoing through the trees.

Afterwards, everyone gathered for a potluck dinner that felt more like a family reunion than a formal reception. Plates passed around the table, stories traded, and candles flickered as the night settled in. It wasn’t a grand ballroom or a sprawling guest list, it was something better. It was real, raw, and beautifully theirs.

Tiffany and Brian proved that love doesn’t need all the extras, just heart, a few good friends, and the courage to make your day your own.

Anthony's Senior Portraits

 

Westfield, Ma

A sequence of motion-blurred black and white photographs showing a motorcycle speeding past on a rural road.

When Anthony’s family first reached out, they told me one thing right away, his biggest passion is motorcycles. He wanted that love front and center in his senior portraits, and I was so down for the challenge.

From the start, I knew these images were going to be something special. But I also knew it wouldn’t be simple; finding a location that worked for both portraits and a full-sized motorcycle took some serious legwork. After hours of scouting, mapping, and a deep dive into Google Earth, we landed on the perfect spot: a secluded gravel access road that winds down to a quiet riverbank. (Pro tip for other photographers... always use caution when exploring unknown locations!)

Anthony was a total natural and brought so much energy to the shoot. Together, we created a set of images that truly reflect who he is; bold, confident, and unapologetically himself.

Senior portraits don’t have to be boring. Sometimes, all it takes is a vision, a motorcycle, and a little bit of adventure.

Melissa & Joe

 

Bliss Farm - Granville, Ma

Wedding guests react with surprise and laughter as strong wind blows through an outdoor autumn ceremony.

Melissa & Joe tied the knot on a cloudy, crisp fall afternoon after being exclusive partners for over 27 years.


From the moment I booked this wedding over a year ago I knew it was going to be an emotional afternoon. Nearly there decades of partnership, five children, and both pillars of their community, Melissa & Joe were completely surrounded by their loved ones at Bliss Farm in Granville, Massachusetts. I had the incredible pleasure of working with their eldest daughter to plan this beautiful fall wedding. Meaghan wanted nothing but to create the most perfect, stress free and fun day for her parents and she did just that.  From music by DJ Rob Alberti, to delicious food courtesy of Bears BBQ Catering the evening was perfect. If you're reading this and you're looking for a DIY cocktail hour HIT... Charcuterie cups... Pinterest it I promise your guests (and Vendor Team) will love it. (Photos below for proof).
