When Mother Nature has other plans, you pivot with grace.

Claire & James were set to say “I do” at the Boston Public Library when a historic blizzard had other ideas. What could have been a logistical nightmare became one of the most memorable weddings I’ve photographed this year, thanks to the incredible team at

Within hours of learning the Library would be closed, the Fairmont transformed challenge into magic. They provided an elegant suite for an intimate ceremony, their grand hallways became the backdrop for the most breathtaking first look, and those iconic staircases? Absolutely stunning for capturing timeless family portraits.

The day concluded exactly as it should have - with the entire wedding party having an epic snowball fight in Copley Square, because sometimes the best moments are the unplanned ones.

To Claire & James: Your flexibility and joy in the face of the unexpected set the tone for a beautiful marriage. To : Thank you for exemplifying what true hospitality looks like when it matters most. You didn’t just save a wedding day, you elevated it.

When couples ask me about backup plans, this is the story I’ll tell.

Two years ago, Ben survived the Lewiston shooting. This weekend, they chose that same date to get married—transforming their darkest day into one of love and celebration.

Standing witness to this kind of courage left us speechless. This wasn’t just a wedding. It was a declaration that love wins.

Julia and I were honored beyond words to document this day. Thank you for trusting us with your story.

Huge congratulations, you two!

Jared and Ray’s engagement session unfolded in the quiet magic of a clear Maine night—still water, starry skies, and the kind of ease that only comes from true love.

Adventurous, kind, and effortlessly themselves, these two made the night feel both grounded and extraordinary. I’m honored to be photographing their wedding this September.
