The title of this one is not very helpful, so for those of you wanting to know more, this is a fun family shoot that Tyler did. The two heads I am referring, Max and Stella of course. Max and Stella are the 2 year old twins of Kim Ho, owner of You’re Invited, planning […]

A couple of weeks ago I had the extreme pleasure of being asked by my good friend Emilie Sommer to be a mentor at the Roots workshop in Cape Cod. I have been involved in another similar workshop, the Foundation workshop, for years. If you check out the blog archives you can […]

The Lang’s are dear friends of my parents, and it has been so neat getting to know Jeni, Kurt, and the whole family better over the past many months.  I love the way Jeni and Kurt look at each other.  I had a sense through out the wedding day […]

Jennifer and Jason wanted engagement pictures including two ingredients that contrast so wonderfully: the city, and their beloved dog.  Jason’s tattoos made it even more spicy!It was fun guys!

Blair and Chris found me through one of my wonderful couples from last year, Anya and Chris, and since we have grown to know one another over the year, we found out that we have mutual close friends (including Megan and Danielle of Soiree event […]

This was a fun session for Tyler. He had already worked with Alex a few months back when her and her siblings came in for their annual holiday portrait. That turned out so well that we were not at all worried about how this days shoot would go. Tyler had a great time with Alex […]

Hannah and Tyler are a couple that compliment each other so well. Hannah is super outgoing and willing to try anything for this shoot, and Tyler is a bit more subdued. This balance makes for a wonderful pairing. Although a great relationship, it kind of made an interesting challenge for me (”the other Tyler”) […]
