Stephen and Rebekah’s North End of Boston Portrait Session

Where do I begin? We clicked with these two. We clicked in a big way. Stephen called us up one day and let us know that he wanted to give his sweet wife a photo session for Christmas. They lived in Alabama and were headed to New England for his gift to her for Christmas, and a photo session with us would be icing on the cake. He said that he loved our work and they were believers as well, (in Jesus), and that it seemed like it would be a good fit. He was spot on. We parked the car and when we got out to get our gear situated, he walked up with his bride and said, “Are you Bethany and Dan, because I’m Stephen and this is Rebekah.” That was all it took really… we loved his big Texan style and her grace of a southern belle right then and there.

He is from Texas and She hails from Alabama, where the two live now. After a whirlwind, and I do mean whirlwind, of a romance, they were married and living life to the glory of God. It was so fulfilling to us to be with a couple, who like us, met and courted, knowing the path they were on was undoubtably marriage. Within 4 months of being engaged, (which was an EPIC engagement story by the way… involving her entire family and the 50 yard line in the stadium of “roll tide” Alabama), they were married. It’s fast and furious love stories like that which get me crazy excited, because I know what it’s like to know… to know immediately that you are in the presence of the one. The one you will love forever.

So enjoy our take on their love story. We hope these images will be a witness to you, of just how deeply they love one another.

Natalie and Thad’s Portland Portrait Session

When Natalie called us and asked if we could schedule a portrait session with them since the missed out on an engagement session, we jumped at the opportunity. These two are so in LOVE and it’s just so nice to be around that. We met them at the Casco Bay Lines, right where we had met them before their wedding last September. It was crazy cold outside. Thad, like a true “Mainer,” went without a coat for most of the shoot, which blew my mind! They have recently moved to Lake Tahoe and it’s not much warmer there either. It was just so fun to see these two again and start the year off right with a hot couple, totally in love, in a beautiful place. Who could ask for more right?

2011: Favorite Photos

In the ninth hour, Dan and I finally sat down to look through our hard work of 2011 and review all the images we took through weddings, engagement sessions, family sessions, and commercial shoots. We closed our eyes and thought of the images that came to mind instantly and want to share them with you. It’s amazing to see all the people we got to meet and share really precious moments with throughout 12 short months. Everyone will have a lasting impression on our lives and on our work and portfolio. We are blessed to have met all of you and are grateful to you for choosing us to capture what was important to you. You really rocked out world. Here’s to 2012 and all that it holds!

Andrea & Matt’s Portland ME Portrait Session

Andrea and Matt live in the most adorable city of Portland, Maine where Matt is a builder and Andrea is a kindergarten teacher.  They have been married for a year and wanted a few photos of themselves “while they are still young and good looking!” The “good looking” part will probably stick around longer than they think… as you can tell. They were so fun to photograph and kept US laughing pretty much the entire time. It’s easy to see why their marriage is so strong… they laugh together! Please note that this took place at night in the freezing temperatures of Maine. They were up for it so we had to be too. It was nice to finish the night in their warm cozy apartment, sampling the yummy chocolate chip cookies they made and petting their feisty cat Cleo.
