Amber & Nick

Amber and Nick's wedding was Saturday and it was great fun. I have quickly gone through her pictures and thought I'd pick a couple out to post here as a teaser. I am still catching up with the last few weddings so we'll have to wait to see more from Amber and Nick. Amber was so sweet and nice and beautiful! This couple seemed to have a blast at their wedding and I was so glad to be there to capture their day for them. We totally lucked out and the rain held off so I could get the following pictures of them in an adorable field of wild flowers behind the church.

Me & the Strawberry

So when I was taking pictures of Nate and his strawberry, I couldn't help but think of a picture I knew my mom had of me with a strawberry when I was a kid. Well I stopped at m mom's last night on the way home from a wedding [check back for samples :)] and picked up that picture. SO here it is. We had a little strawberry patch on our land and all I can remember was that the berries were the biggest I had ever seen. I was about 4 and this was 1975! Wasn't I cute?!

Nate and the Strawberry

Nate and I stopped by a farm stand on the way home tonight. I was craving fresh Maine strawberries! By the time we got home Nate and I had already dug into the red quart of goodness. After we got home Nate pulled out this beautiful berry and said "look mom, its shaped like a heart!" I said, "oh lets take pictures of it!" (of course, any chance he'll let me take his picture I jump to it) so here is our little strawberry of love. (which was gone before we even got back inside)




this one is my favorite!

Notice what his shirt says. When I saw it in the store I knew it was made just for him. My little stuntman. :)

Bahhh Haa bah

I just came back from a weeks vacation in Bar Harbor (pronouced Bahh-Haa-Bah for those not from Maine) it was a pretty rainy week but we ended up with a few hours each day that was dry so I could take a few snapshots for fun. Arcadia National Park is one of the most beautiful places in Maine. I just can't get enough of the beauty of this area. Here are a few of the clicks I made while I there and wasn't gawking with m y mouth open at nature's eye candy.

At the Seawall there are millions of these fantastic rocks. We had fun making little stacks all over the place

Baby Ava

I had the exiting opportunity to take pictures of Baby Ava this weekend. She is the tiniest little sweat pea, ever! Her tiny feet were delectable and I could hardly focus on taking her picture when I just wanted to nibble on her toes. I had the HARDEST time picking my favorite pictures for the blog so here are several of my favs.
BTW: She is 4 months old.

Delicious feeties!

look at those eyes!


her momma loves her so much. Who wouldn't!

She recently found her toes



I just had to add some wings to this picture. She looks like she is flying. What a little angel!

Can you spot the drool?

Baby bums are the CUTEST!

Thank you Ava's Mom & Dad for letting me take pictures of this little darling!!!

Sonja & Chris

I had the honor to photograph Sonja and Chris on Saturday. They had a beautiful wedding despite (yet another) raining wedding day. The bride was super photogenic and was just the most beautiful, down to earth woman and a pleasure to work with. I am sorting the TONS of fabulous pictures and decided to take a few of my favorites to post as a sneak peak.

Are you kidding me? Isn't she a gorgeous bride?!


Red shoes, in honor of her Grandmother. She loved red!
Her Gram would have be soooo proud!

The side story was, these "perfect shoes" were chosen
well ahead of time. Unfortunately, Chris and Sonja's sweet doggies
decided Sonja needed to buy another pair and ate them. (I think
they wanted a bigger part in their wedding story)
luckily she received the new pair 4 days before the wedding!




"Dip her like you mean it!"
(you've got to love the red shoes)


These guys couldn't resist picking her up.




These bridesmaids were my kind of girls.
Snapping pictures all night and having a blast doing it!



Maid of honor, raking in the dough for the "Dollar Dance"
(everyone wanted to dance with Sonja, of course!)



Dancing like they were the only one's in the room
