Connor and big sister, Nora!

Hi!  Do you remember beautiful, blue-eyed Nora?  (I can't believe how big she got!  Click here to see her as a little babe).  Well... she's now a big sister to the most adorable little brother.  Meet Connor!  And he has the same big beautiful blue eyes!  I love love love getting to watch families grow with each new little one.  That is a privilege that I think I under estimated when I started this.   It makes me so happy!

Heather and Mike, you make gorgeous children!  I'm so happy for you.  Thank you for letting me document this time in your life!   He's perfect!

He's PUMPED to be here!

Sweet 'lil Lincoln!

Happy Friday!!   I met Christy and Matt through our mutual friend, Kalyn and I am so unbelievably glad she sent them my way.  When I met them at their gorgeous home to take some shots of their new addition, they were both so sweet and welcoming.  I immediately felt like we hadn't just met!  And about that new little addition of theirs!!  Little Lincoln is just so cute and snuggly.  Its hard work posing for pictures when you are just figuring out what this world is!  But he was a rockstar and was so happy to steal some snuggles with Mommy in between.

The newborn days can be such a happy blur and I'm so glad I got to freeze this moment!   Christy and Matt... Lincoln is so lucky to have such awesome, natural parents!  I hope you love these!

Hi, buddy!

I love everything about this.  Nothing but a mama's pure love.  Stunning, Christy!

And not to mention... he just might have the coolest nursery EVER.

And I'll leave you with this adorable little smirk.  Bye, Lincoln!

Mary Kate is Sweet Sixteen!

Guys.... Meet Mary Kate.  She is beautiful and quite possibly the sweetest girls out there.  And she just turned 16!   Can you remember how fun that time is???   High school... sports... thinking about visiting colleges..  Getting your permit!!  SO exciting.  Mark Kate goes to Middleboro High... the same school I graduated from 14 years ago.  (Whaaaat?! 14? )  It was so fun to re-live those days chatting with her!

The night before we got together to do this shoot, Mary Kate's family and friends threw a surprise party for her at her house.  SO fun.  I love that.  And then to be even more awesome, her mom surprised her with this shoot the next day!   She rocked it and we had a blast.    Not to mention she is now my hero.  Because she saved me from a giant spider crawling on me mid shoot.    AHHHHHH!  If you know me, you can only imagine the screaming and flailing that ensued!

Congrats, Mary Kate and Happy Birthday!!  And thanks for saving me from the giant man-eating spider.

Mark and Megann are Tying the Knot!

I absolutely could NOT be more excited for two of my closest friends to get married!  I have known Mark for fourteen years and I was ecstatic when he met Meg.  I knew she would be it for him.  They are two of the most genuine, good people who completely deserve each other.  They have so much fun together, can goof around like they've been best friends forever, and are always so supportive of each other... (and not to mention they make the most gorgeous couple ever!  I mean really....)

When Megann texted me from their anniversary trip in Jamaica that Mark had popped the question, I literally dropped my phone I was so happy!  And props to Mark from keeping it a secret from all of us!  That's no small feat.

So we started off the day at their beautiful new home.  Then took a trip to Harvard Square where they had their first date (and had a beer of course)!  And then it was off to Southie, where they spent the last few years and will always be a special place to the both of them.   SO fun.

Where it all began...

Meg really.. TRY  to be more gorgeous.

goofballs.
