Raised On Country Sunshine...

I had the pleasure of meeting the 3 McKane sisters for an afternoon of country sunshine... These girls are so beautiful, and such sweethearts. I had a really great time capturing these moments for them!















Frankie & Gena Hit Southford Falls

We lucked out by having a sunny(ish) Sunday morning after all of that November rain! I met up with Frankie & Gena to have a little fun at Southford Falls. These are 2 of the cutest kids! They were so cooperative, and by the end of the shoot they were coming up with their own ideas for posing and using props! It was fantastic! Thank you so much, guys!








She makes pregnancy look easy...

My good friend Erica from college is expecting a baby....any day now, literally! At her 8 month mark, we spent an afternoon together for a fun maternity shoot. The results are breathtaking....


The parents-to-be...




Good luck to you, Erica & Mike! Can't wait to meet the little guy or girl!

Christmas with the Gagliardi Family

It was such a pleasure to take some photos of Kristy, Anthony, Little Anthony & Gabriella for their Christmas cards...This shoot really kicked off the holiday season for me, and I put in my CD of Christmas music on the ride home! : )

Welcome, Baby Gabriella!

Kristy asked me if I would be interested in taking some photos of her newborn angel, Gabriella. Interested? I was honored, and so excited for the opportunity! Little Gabby was the perfect subject. Take a look at some of our favorite shots from her very first photoshoot...





I think the biggest reason that Gabriella felt so comfortable during her photoshoot that day was because her big brother, Anthony, was there to watch over her and keep her safe. What a handsome and sweet boy...


I am so looking forward to their Christmas shoot! Stay tuned!

Fall Family Fun with the Huntleys!

There is nothing greater than watching kids being kids! That was the name of the game during our fall inspired photoshoot at Bishop's Orchard in Guilford. We picked pumpkins, apples, and got lost in the hay maze. It was a blast! Thank you, guys, for allowing me to capture some of your fall memories this year!

Beauty Amidst the Ruins


Renee and I were on the same page when we were scouting locations for this shoot. We both wanted to keep it raw and edgy. We were looking for lots of chipped paint, rusty staircases, rough textures, and any building that was in a state of general decay and disrepair!

The results are rather breathtaking...





We had a blast with this shoot, and the passersby in the neighborhood had plenty to say to us! Good thing we wrapped before dark, and even better that Renee is a 3rd degree black belt, she kept me safe! : ) Thanks, Renee!

An afternoon with the Hayes Family...

On a crisp autumnal afternoon, I met up with Melissa and her gorgeous daughters, Allison & Caroline. The location for the shoot was a serene farm with rolling hills, not too far from their home in Burlington.

It was only a matter of minutes before Allison was hamming it up for the camera, playing peekaboo over the wooden fence.

Her little sister was practicing her new skills ~ sitting up on her own!

Then it was homeward bound to wait for Dad, Jesse, to get home from work, for a few shots of the family...

-- and let's not forget Luke, the family dog!

It was such a pleasure to meet and shoot the family. We've come a long way since the UConn days, Melissa! : )

Lovely September Morning Photoshoot with Bridget & Jack!

It was an early Saturday morning that I met up with Bridget & Jack at Booth Park in Stratford. I had an absolute blast with them!


Jack was showing me all of his super powers and even modeled his "J" cape for me. He is definitely the coolest 4 year old super-hero I know, and the sweetest! He would turn to his mom and give her the biggest hugs.



They are a beautiful duo, as you can see, so it wasn't hard to get some amazing shots. I was so happy to be able to capture these moments for them!
