A Timeless Mother's Day Photoshoot in Hollis, NH
There is a special kind of magic that exists between a mother and her child, and it was my privilege to capture that bond with Kaleala and her one-year-old daughter, Violet. We celebrated Mother's Day a little late this year with a beautiful family photoshoot at the picturesque Woodmont Orchard in Hollis, NH. Despite the threat of rain, we found the perfect window to create stunning portraits. It was a joy to watch Kaleala and Violet sitting in the tall grass, smelling flowers, and blowing dandelions—a truly timeless and touching moment that perfectly encapsulates their loving relationship. These are the kinds of authentic, heartfelt memories that I believe are so important to preserve.

For years, I've been thinking of exploring film photography. And this year, I finally took the leap, by bringing a single roll of black and white film and an old Minolta with a broken light meter to Maria and Josh's wedding. While I captured their full day on my digital cameras, I also carefully stretched that roll of film, shooting entirely off instinct, guided by over a decade of experience. Their ceremony at St. Joseph Church in Epping and reception at Camelot at the Holy Grail provided such beautiful backdrops, even with the rain.
