2022 felt very much like a tightrope act. professionally it was one of my busiest years. on a personal level it was full of uncertainty yet forging forward regardless with a new business venture [arc{hive} book + snackery] with my husband. it went by at the slowest fast-forward speed there is. we all survived + I always enjoy the roller coaster of emotion I feel when I review the year through my photos. it is as much a history of my life as well as the history of moments of others.
I am so thankful to have worked another year with lisa frechette photography who is kind enough to let me share some of my 2nd photographer images with you here.
you may want to grab a seat as this one is a long one. self-editing is not one of my strong suits. here are some [too many] of my favorite images from the year. I hope you enjoy the view from my front-row seat to joy cause if this isn’t nice, I don’t know what is!
this lovely family had never had family portraits taken before this week + I am thrilled that they trusted me with their first official family portraits. they found me through past clients, so just another friendly reminder to always photo-credit your professional photographer + sing their praises whenever you can!! it is our best advertisement! anyhoo, Paige, Kayla, Poppy + Gary the dog were absolute troopers for braving the chilly windy fall weather on Monday. Gary, understandably, was more interested in fetch than me + my dog treats which only left me a little wounded. Poppy + all her adorableness made up for it! They were all naturals + such a joy to photograph! I hope they continue the tradition of family portraits + I hope I have the honor to photograph them again!
Here are a few frames from our RI family portrait session that took place at Crescent Park in East Providence.
what a great way to celebrate mom’s 49th [really 70th] birthday by getting the whole far-flung family together for a family portrait. plus, it kinda takes care of the holiday cards as well. smart family! I had the pleasure of meeting them this past weekend + we made the best of the chilly sunny fall day at Goddard Park. for some reason, the youngest always steals the show.
