Whoa. We had a LOT of rain this past year. In fact, I think in July alone we had 25 days of rain. That meant a lot of rescheduling family sessions and moving everyone to the few and far between sunny days we had. I’m always up for a rainy day portrait session but most...
Carolena was so excited for her family’s trip to Maine this past summer and we can totally understand! I week away enjoying the beach, all the sights and fun little cities like Portland. One (or two) special day trips for them was out to the Portland Headlight for...
The P Family came up to York because one of Lauri’s daughters decided a big, extended family trip up to York, Maine would be perfect. She organized the entire thing and invited everyone up so Lauri took this opportunity to schedule family portraits while they were...
The S Family made the long drive all the way to Maine and we got to capture their time spent on a sandy beach for the first time. They were staying in Boothbay Harbor, which is a gorgeous town with lots to do, but no sandy beaches! Thankfully the S family was game to...

Oh it’s so good to be back behind the camera for events! And what a way to kick off the semi-post COVID event season with this beautiful family’s backyard Bar Mitzvah and celebration. Diego’s Bar Mitzvah was our first event post-mass vaccine rollouts and outdoor mask...
It’s February, the coldest month of the year (I don’t have the scientific data to back that up) but it certainly feels like the coldest month!Today I want to reminisce about those warm summer days on the beach and spending it with families! The T Family was up...
