Anna and Pete at Misselwood

I bet you all thought I forgot about weddings now, didn’t you!  I still love my wedding peeps…these two are no exception.  Anna and Pete are probably the SWEETEST couple I have ever met.  I absolutely loved watching the two of them watching each other.  Anna’s smile is infectious and Pete is so loving and protective of her.  Their wedding was at times introspective and also a really joyful celebration.  It really was so wonderful to be a part of their day…have a look!

New Work with WoRD

I’ve been taking a few months away from the world of weddings to recharge and re-evaluate where I want to go as an artist.  One of those places I’m going is the Worcester Roller Derby – also known as WoRD.  These ladies are FIERCE…there’s nothing Martha Stewart-esqe or Style Me Pretty about any of what they do.  I LOVE it!  Watching them and photographing them is getting me to flex a whole other set of artistic muscles.  The speed, the the names – oh lord, the NAMES! – and the action are all colliding together to make a glorious mash up.

Below are some of my more favorite shots from my latest session with them: a practice and scrimmage up in Lancaster.  Keep an eye out here, on my Facebook page and on WoRD’s media for more images and more crunching fun…

 

New Year, new project!

Happy New Year all!  Here’s to hoping that 2013 brings success and happiness to you all fine people.  I know it’s beckoning me into a new direction; can you say “Pin Up”?

I’ve long wanted to bring pin up to the Woo (what we call Worcester around here)…the fine ladies at Providence Pinup are rockin’ it in RI, so why not here?  Perhaps it’s the new-ness, perhaps it’s the “sassy-ness” but I am SO taken with this style.  It’s funny and flirty without being too sexy; it has its tongue firmly in cheek!  I find pinup conveys personality so much more than boudoir.  Take a look at the lovely ladies below and tell me what you think!

Keep an eye out around the Woo for the Miss Worcester Diner and for Kate and Mary, members of the Worcester Roller Derby (WoRD)…now if you think girls can’t kick butt, then check out THESE ladies!!!

A special thank you to all those who serve…

Recalling warm summer days with Emma and Nick

With the memories of summer dwindling, here’s a sunset engagement mini-session with Emma and Nick.  Emma and Nick currently live in San Diego, but Emma sweetly persuaded Nick into considering the charms of a New England coastal wedding next June.  We tested the waters (tee hee) with a mini-session in Marblehead at Chandler Hovey Park/Marblehead Lighthouse.  I have to say, I can not wait to photograph their full blown engagement session in San Diego on the ocean in November.  Hmmm…a long weekend in San Diego for work?  Yup, this job definitely doesn’t stink!!!
