the wedding . trisha + richard

these love birds have been together since they were sophomores in high school! 

Now, 12 years later, their love is still palpable which is such a beautiful thing... they celebrated with their friends and family by becoming husband and wife this past winter and it truly was my pleasure to document their big day...

frances . the baby session (3 months)

So exciting to meet baby, Frances! I've had the pleasure of photographing Sylvia + Jimmy's boudoir, engagement and wedding so it was so amazing to meet their new addition! She has such a sweet disposition; such a beautiful baby girl... 

This was also the very first shoot within the new loft; Exciting :)

Looking forward to seeing Frances grow at our 6 month session and beyond!
