I loved capturing photos with this family in the Seacoast this fall. The overcast skies and stunning scenery meant I could point my camera in any direction and get beautiful light and tones. I love the rocks, the trees, and historic fort features, which was especially appealing for the kids to explore. It was fun seeing them run and play.

My favorite thing is to capture families in places that mean something special to them. These returning clients embraced this concept and picked Mount Molly in New Durham, New Hampshire for their family adventure this fall. Becky hiked this mountain while pregnant and it was the first hike they did as a family after their little one was born. It has beautiful views of pristine Merrymeeting Lake.

This family session was a dream come true! I was so excited when my friend, Carly, requested a photo session during her family’s summer vacation in Colorado. Carly and I went through a 10-month-long Americorps program together in New Hampshire over a decade ago. We picked a spot at a lake high in the mountains not far from Salida. We snapped a few photos by the lake then walked a nearby trail to find more beautiful scenery. Plus, their son such a great little adventurer!

On a humid, overcast morning with a tropical storm looming, I met Emma and her family at a favorite conservation property in southern New Hampshire. Thankfully the rain held off until after our session and we were able to hike a good amount on this adventure. We saw monarch caterpillars and pretty wildflowers everywhere!

I met Rebecca and her family early one August morning at a forest close to where I used to live in New Hampshire. My favorite part was how the sunlight streamed through the trees from a neighboring field. I had driven by this park many times when I lived in the area but never hiked the trails.

They fell in love in Maine, moved away, had kids, and returned for family photos this summer. What a special session with my friends and their young boys. I was so excited when the timing worked out for us both to travel back to Maine this summer.

From the river to the hills, this family had a fun fall adventure session in Salida, Colorado. We started out exploring along the Arkansas River near downtown. We let the little ones run, jump, climb, and play as they do best. After the kids got their fill by the water we took a short drive across the river to a hill overlooking Salida and the surrounding peaks.

I met this family first thing in the morning on a beautiful, golden-leaf-lined trail by the Arkansas River in Salida. It had great autumn colors and stunning morning light. We explored the little paths here and there and ended the session on the riverbed itself.

I love walking along the river and was grateful for the chance to capture Avery’s family memories in such a beautiful place. We met at part of the Salida River Walk one summer evening and let the kids play along the water’s edge and under the canopy of the beautiful cottonwoods and willows while I captured candids and portraits.

I met Taylor’s family at Cottonwood Lake in Buena Vista shortly before the sun dipped behind the mountains in July. Their little boys explored the woods, rode bikes, and played by the water's edge. More fun sessions like this, please!

The moody fog and yellow leaves certainly made up for the lack of golden sun at my first photoshoot in Golden, Colorado. We met up by the Clear Creek river trail where they often go to grab coffee and go for walks with their dog.

I love the special bond between mother and daughter. For this trail adventure session we had a grand old time hiking around and coming up with fun ideas for portraits. At first light this aspen stand glows like a holy place.
