Alison and Joe.  I have been working with them for over a year now.  I have done many different images for them.  And they have become not just clients, but friends.  I was so honored to be invited to their wedding last year, not as their photographer, but as their guest.  Their engagement was rather fast and in less than a year from engagement, they were saying "I do."  So imagine my surprise about 7 or 8 weeks after the wedding when I got a text from Alison saying they would be welcoming a baby to their mix!

She is due at the end of this month and she is just so tiny and adorable.  If only we could all look so amazing while pregnant!

Like, seriously, gorgeous. 

I think one of my favorite parts of my job is really getting to know clients.  Getting to celebrate all the amazing parts of life with you.  Weddings, engagements, babies and just being a family. 

I had talked to Alison about maybe working some water shots with me.  How she would feel about getting into the water fully dressed and making some beautiful imagery together.  I did NOT originally put together that we would be doing these at the end of May.  In New England.  The day itself was rather cool, but Alison was all in.  I tried to keep her out of the water, along the beach, in just at her ankles...

Until she flat out yelled at me.  "That's it?!  I was all in for this.  I was prepared to go out there!"  So, since she was absolutely sure, and still all in, despite the cool weather, out we went. 

Here's one thing I can tell you, if I ask you to do something insane, I'm doing it with you.  In I went, into the frigid Atlantic to capture something beautiful for her. 

And I could overshare to death because I am just in love with every beach image from this session.

So if you have something specific in mind, don't be afraid to ask!  At this point, there isn't much I haven't done for a picture. 

Congratulations, Joe and Alison.  On everything.  And thank you for trusting me and asking me to capture some of the most amazing parts of your life.
