Katie & Caleb | 15 August 2009 | Married

Katie & Caleb had a beautiful, outdoor tented wedding in Portsmouth at the Strawbery Banke Museum on what I would consider the hottest day of the year! It was toasty all day long but once the sun went down and the party got rolling, it was a gorgeous evening for an outside wedding. Thanks Katie & Caleb for having us be a part of your special day! Check out some of the photos from their day. Leave some love and tell me what you think! Tks

Introducing Gallery Wraps!

Gallery Wraps are a new and exciting way to showcase your wedding photographs but in a more upscale, gallery style way and I am excited to now offer them to my clients! These very modern and contemporary archival canvas prints that are stretched onto a wooden frame and the image extends around the sides and wrapped and mounts to the back of the frame. No need for expensive frames, mats and glass...you pull these out of the box and hang them. These are really great for our hip clients looking for something unique and a bit whimsical.

I am running some AMAZING specials to get your hands on a fantastic way to hang your wedding photographs in your new home that looks like art!

Please email me for more information, but you need to hurry...the deals end on August 31, 2009 and let me just say....I wouldn't wait...these deals are so great, I doubt they will be able to offer these again anytime soon!

Here's a few photos of the one I ordered that just arrived.

Amanda & Dan | Couple's Session Shoot | Canobie Lake Park

I took a little trip down to Canobie Lake Park to shoot Amanda & Dan's Couples Session. I'm not calling this shoot an engagement shoot because, although together for quite some time, they are not engaged yet (hey Dan....hint, hint!). But they wanted to have a fun, flirty time walking around the park, going on rides, playing some of the games and of course eating tons of junk food! Thank you both for being up for anything! Here's some photos from the shoot! Enjoy.....

Dan won Amanda a shiny new engagement ring...I think he did pretty good?

She loved it!

They decided to hop into the photobooth for some craziness!

Dan was scared to death of Amanda's driving...even with the bar to guide them.....hilarious!

Dan knock it out of the park by winning Amanda this HUGE Green thing....

It's a must to share a bag of cotton candy!

I think they should wear these at their actual wedding...what do you think?

What a perfect night!

Happy Birthday to my Beautiful Sister...

Today's post is with a heavy heart but I wanted to write a tribute to my sister. Today marks her 45th birthday. Unfortunately 139 days ago my sister passed away after her long battle with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease). I am still mourning the loss of my big sister and it's been more difficult now then when it happened. I miss her terribly and feel the emptiness still in my heart. I'm still trying to come to grips with why this disease took a hold of such a wonderful person. My sister in a nutshell was truly an angel.

I have learned to believe in my faith to get me through all of this and learn the lessons I'm meant to learn. I guess god just needed her more than we did and I know we'll be together one day.

As the quote goes....."It's OK not to know all the answers, just believe that they are there, and they will be revealed to you in due time."

I promised my sister I wouldn't spend too much time being sad about what happened to her but instead to celebrate her life and to smile, laugh and recall all the good times we shared when she was here. I'm so proud to have been her little sister and I have a level of peace knowing she is now in a better place and no longer suffering.

I feel her around me all the time and I know she gives me her strength to get me through my own struggles.

Linda, I love you so much and miss you....you are forever in my heart and I thank you for teaching me so much. We will all spend this special day honoring you and celebrating your birthday and remembering what a truly special and unique soul you were. You were so loved by your friends and family and you will never, never be forgotten.

Happy Birthday Linda! Fly high, sing, dance and know we all think about you everyday and you are not far from our hearts.

Lots of kisses and hugs from your baby sister...Diane.
