AN ARCHIVE OF love stories

Being invited into the the lives of extraordinary people is an incredible privilege. The stories I adorn through my imagery capture the true essence of the human spirit and the art of being in love.

Courtney + Patrick…Day Before…Tuscany, Italy

There aren’t words sufficient enough to describe how amazing this experience was.

Courtney + Patrick reside in Boston, MA., and they wanted to have a destination wedding in Tuscany.  When Courtney first made contact with me, I about fell out of my chair with excitement.  I am BEYOND humbled and honored to have been asked to spend 5 days with their closest friends and family in Tuscany….doing what I love the most.  It was surreal, and the entire experience far exceeded my expectations.

It was a dream.

I have SO much I want to share about this adventure, but that will have to wait for the Wedding Feature.  (EEP)

For now, I wanted to share a few of my favorite frames from one of the evenings spent in Greve, Italy.

We could not have had a more PERFECT recipe for this session…the Tuscan light, olive groves, two incredible people in love,  and some shots from their first villa in Chianti, the Villa La Palagina.
