Since 2001 I have been honored to photograph proposals, first kisses, the exchanging of rings, babies to be, new life,
beloved pets, confident women, events for charity, theater, and everything in between. Each time I get that rush of
excitement knowing that my images are helping to tell my clients' stories...and that, to me, is an amazing thing.

No matter what type of sitting or event I am documenting, my approach is the same--relaxed, confident, and unobtrusive.
I let kids be kids, I let the story of a couple's love unfold naturally, and I consistently wait for just the right moment before clicking
the shutter. I believe in quality over quantity (which is not to say that I don't get carried away and take way more pictures than
I probably "should"), but above all I want your experience with me to be both fun and enjoyable. Knowing that the smiles I'm
seeing are genuine, rather than forced, and that you feel comfortable in front of my lens--even when you normally hate
having your photograph taken--is what I strive for.

My portrait sessions usually last anywhere from 1-2 hours although you're never rushed. As a mom I understand that babies
and kids (and even adults) need breaks! I plan accordingly by always scheduling more than enough time for shooting with some
relaxing in between. Clothing changes are welcome and encouraged and depending upon what, when, and where we're shooting,
the scenery may change as well.

Typically sessions are done in my gorgeous, natural light studio located in Franklin, NH. With floor to ceiling windows,
exposed brickwork, hardwood floors, and coupled with my backdrops and props, it's the perfect spot to create beautiful
images. For those who prefer to have me come to them, however, that is always an option as well.

In short, I love what I do and I want you to love what I do as well!
