You can usually find me adding books to my never-ending “to read” list; challenging myself to do things like not shop for a year; sneaking crispy m+ms from my secret hiding spot so I don’t have to share them with my daughter; and melting over seeing my children smiling at each other.

Ever wonder what to wear while you're photographing a wedding? Fear no more! I share all my top tips to picking out your outfit!

What if I told you that being a good photographer doesn’t have to do with the photos you take? Don’t get me wrong, having high quality photographs IS important, but there’s so much more to it than that. On a wedding day, I can’t tell you how many times a guest has come up to […]

The key to being a great wedding photographer

Jack and Becca were married at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Yarmouth, Maine. Did their portraits at the Cumberland Club in Portland, and had their reception at the Woodlands Club in Falmouth! Despite the relentless rain, it was still a kick-ass day!

Over the years that I’ve been running this business, I’ve had a lot of experience BEING a second shooter and HAVING a second shooter with me on a wedding day. So, it’s kind of neat that I get to write this post with both perspectives in mind! Here are some tips on being a better […]
