I met up with Karen and Chris at Government House in mid-September. I got there early and it started pouring, so I texted them to ask if they wanted to reschedule. They wanted to wait a few minutes and see if it cleared. When they arrived, we grabbed a couple of umbrellas and hid under […]

Ashely and Travis had a small family wedding at Abigail’s Hotel a couple of weeks ago, on one of the sunniest days in April. For them, this is a prelude to a larger wedding in the fall, but for me, it was an awesome little wedding. Ashley and Travis were getting ready together when I […]
Shannon and Sean are Married

She’s a yoga instructor and he works in media […]

Though the champagne might […]
