Love Stories
Every family has a beginning. Every beginning deserves to be remembered.
Every relationship has its own rhythm, its own traditions, and its own story. My job isn't to change that—it's to preserve it. I want you to look back on your photographs years from now and remember not just how everything looked, but how it felt to be completely present with the person you love.
Whether your celebration is an intimate proposal on the cliffs of Newport, an engagement session at your favorite beach, or a wedding surrounded by everyone who matters most, I'm honored every time a couple trusts me to document the beginning of their next chapter.
These aren't just photographs for today.
They're the first pages of your family's history.
Some stories begin with a glance across a crowded room. Others start with a friendship, an unexpected adventure, or a chance encounter that changes everything. However your story began, it deserves to be told in a way that feels authentic, joyful, and uniquely yours.
For more than twenty years, I've had the privilege of documenting some of life's happiest moments—from surprise proposals and engagement sessions to beautiful weddings filled with laughter, happy tears, and unforgettable celebrations. What I've learned over the years is that the most meaningful photographs aren't the perfectly posed ones. They're the quiet moments between the big moments. The squeeze of a hand. A nervous smile. The laughter that wasn't planned. The look that says everything without a single word.
Your love story is unlike anyone else's, and your photographs should be too.
Whether you're planning to ask the biggest question of your life, celebrating your engagement, or promising forever surrounded by your favorite people, my goal is to create images that bring you right back to those feelings every time you look at them.
Proposals
Some of life's most unforgettable moments happen in complete surprise. A proposal lasts only a few seconds, but the emotions—the excitement, the tears, the laughter, and the overwhelming joy—are memories you'll carry forever. Whether you've spent months planning every detail or simply know you've found the person you want to spend your life with, I'll work behind the scenes to help keep your proposal a surprise while documenting every genuine reaction. After the "yes," we'll celebrate with portraits that capture the excitement of the beginning of your next chapter together.
Engagements
Your engagement session is about so much more than creating beautiful photographs. It's a chance for us to get to know one another, for you to become comfortable in front of the camera, and for us to create images that reflect your relationship—not a Pinterest trend. Whether your perfect backdrop is a windswept beach, a quiet hiking trail, the streets of Newport, or the place where your story began, my goal is to capture the connection, laughter, and little moments that make your relationship uniquely yours. These photographs become more than save-the-dates or wedding décor—they become part of your family's story.
Weddings
Your wedding day will pass in the blink of an eye, but your photographs will allow you to relive it for generations. My approach has always been to tell the complete story—not just the big moments like the first kiss or the first dance, but the quiet glances, happy tears, nervous excitement, and joyful celebrations that make every wedding completely unique. After photographing weddings for more than twenty years, I've learned that the most meaningful images are often the ones you never expected. They're the hugs from grandparents, your parents seeing you for the first time, your best friend's laughter during a toast, or the way your new spouse looked at you when no one else was watching. Those are the moments that become priceless with time, and they're the moments I love preserving most.
MEET THE KLIMEK'S
Thirteen Years of Summer Traditions, Family Memories, and Watching Children Grow
Some of my favorite client relationships aren't measured by the number of photographs we've taken—they're measured by the years we've shared together.
For the past thirteen years, I've had the privilege of photographing the Klimeck family during their summer vacations. Year after year, they return to their beautiful summer home in Dartmouth, Massachusetts, where we capture anther chapter of their family's story before heading to one of their favorite places in the world!
This Beach isn't just another beautiful backdrop. It's a place woven into their family's history. Mom spent her summers there growing up, and now she's creating those same cherished memories with her own children. Watching those traditions continue from one generation to the next is something truly special, and it's an honor to preserve those moments through photographs.
Looking back over thirteen years is almost surreal. I can hardly believe the oldest two—twins who I remember photographing as children—are heading off to college this fall. It feels like just yesterday they were running barefoot across the beach, and now they're beginning an entirely new chapter of their lives. It is such a beautiful reminder of just how quickly childhood passes and why these photographs become more meaningful with each passing year.
Being invited back year after year is one of the greatest compliments I can receive as a photographer. It means I'm not just documenting a single afternoon—I'm helping preserve a family's story as it unfolds.
Thank you, Klimek family, for trusting me to be a small part of your summers for the past thirteen years. I can't wait to see what the next chapter brings.

MORE ABOUT US
A Wedding That Started It All
From One Family Celebration to a Lifetime of Memories
One of the things I love most about photography is that you never know where one introduction might lead.
I first met this wonderful family while photographing the bride's cousin's wedding. At the time, none of us could have imagined that a single wedding day would grow into years of celebrating life's biggest milestones together.
Since then, I've had the privilege of photographing their engagement, wedding day, and so many beautiful chapters that followed. As their family grew, I was honored to capture the arrival of both of their children. Around the same time, I was also invited to photograph newborn sessions for the bride's cousin's growing family—a reminder that the connections we make often extend far beyond a single day.
Some families just make my job easy, and this is certainly one of them. They're kind, genuine, and always up for laughing together, which makes every session feel less like work and more like catching up with old friends. Watching their children grow, seeing their personalities shine a little more each year, and documenting the love they share has been an incredible privilege.
Looking back, it's amazing to think that it all started with one wedding invitation. I feel so grateful that they continue to trust me with their family's memories, and I can't wait to see what adventures and milestones the years ahead will bring.
