Modern and organic kids, families and maternity photography in New Hampshire

"There are many ways to be free. One of them is to transcend reality by imagination, as I try to do." ~ Anais Nin

By challenging the conventional methods of photography, pushing post processing and incorporating graphic design, I seek to inspire an emotional connection and tell an engaging story by transforming simple moments into scenes that seduce a viewer and draw them in deeper.

My main interest is photographing people - for personal, fashion or professional use - but I definitely enjoy mucking around in the woods, scampering through graveyards and exploring abandoned buildings (when i can find them – there is something emotional about the neglect and decay). I have also, for the most part, gotten past worrying about people looking at me funny when I decide the best angle for a photo is lying down on the ground – be it road, rock, grass or sidewalk.

Thanks for visiting!

dakota

A quick post from a recent session I did with the lovely and lively Miss Dakota. The big blue eyes… the curls… the humor… this kid has it all and I was lucky enough to capture some of it! As much as I prefer to be outside shooting, when the weather turns frightful – there is always the studio! I think we got some fun-tastic shots of the little miss right before her 5th birthday. I can’t wait for the warmer spring weather to do a second shoot with her outside doing her own thing.

It’s the eyes… how could anyone not have a hard time saying no to those eyes?!

My absolute favorite shots are the ones that are a little more silly than serious. Kids are rarely serious… they would much rather tell you jokes, make silly face and laugh – like this one.
And a genuine smile… she was making her momma (who was just behind me) laugh.

I still have a bunch more of her to process – but these were a couple of my favorites right off the bat.

For anyone not living in the Northeast, it’s been a pretty mild winter here. Instead of the inches upon inches of powdery white snow, we have seen quite a few of 40°F and higher days. While the snow bunnies are pouting about the natural void of snow, it has given me a lot of opportunities to get outside with the camera and snap photos. Being outdoors is my favorite place to take photos of kids just being themselves. Believe it or not, this is January in New Hampshire!

lilly & jack

Posted in children & babies

I had so much fun during this mini session taking photos of Lilly & Jack taken earlier this year (I’m still playing catch up on my site!). Sometimes, the cuteness of the kids and their big personalities just make my job so much easier and looking back at this session just makes me realize how much I enjoy taking photos of children. In this session, we explored the mill yard around my studio and found a couple of places to take some fun photos.
