Wanted to revisit our "other-worldly" #engagements

Wanted to revisit our "other-worldly" #engagementsession with Jake and Madison on #oahu. Jake introduced me to Eternity Beach at sunrise, which is where a scene in From Here To Eternity was filmed as well as Jurassic Park and many other films. Jake and Madi were great company, they took me in and fed me breakfast. What a great morning!!

Aloha, I love you. #Hawaii pt. 2. Sea turtle footage shot by @jalumnlinz (thx, Jalum!). So much more I had to cut. Might make a YouTube video.🤷‍♂️

Hawaii, Part 1. Documented young love, made new friends, reconnected with old friends, tried new food, swam with sea turtles, sharks and Covid....lived to tell about it. All I knew about Hawaii was filtered through pop cultural references. First hand was way better. Hawaii, hope to see you again. #hawaii

One of the most, if not THE most stunning weddings

One of the most, if not THE most stunning weddings we've had the pleasure to photograph. What a way to go out (tho, to be honest, think I'll keep a light on for more destination weddings!) This was very much a home grown wedding, fueled by family, friends....#ohana. @jakekoco & Madi, wow, what can I say? Thanks from the bottom of my heart for trusting me with this sacred day.🙏 This one will fuel the spirit for a long time. #hawaiianwedding

Meet Amy, a beautiful human who joined us this sum

Meet Amy, a beautiful human who joined us this summer for our "Beautiful Begins At 40" portrait project. Amy is mother to 5 beautiful and accomplished daughters, local entrepreneur and successful businesswoman.

When we began this project, we tried to convey our mission: To celebrate women who have given of themselves for much of their adult lives and have overcome whatever life has thrown their way, with a custom, magazine-style photoshoot. Our goal was to play a part in helping them rediscover themselves and see the beauty that those who love them already know and see everyday. We can't imagine conveying all of the above any better than Amy herself expressed recently, when sharing her favorite portraits from her session, taken in our Wakefield, NH studio...

"A little over a year ago I began a walk through the most painful experience of my life. I was shattered, broken, dust. I felt really UGLY. I went on an excruciating journey I did not choose, and I saw BEAUTIFUL again...God (skeptics, God is so real), my family, and a few very dear friends showed UP and held me up when I couldn’t stand. I found strength, the capacity to forgive, and a depth of love I had no idea I had, and more recently,-it’s a process-compassion for those who hurt others and who hurt me.
I have always thought scars were nice. A couple of my kids have them on their faces. I tell them they are beautiful. They mark stories of our humanness and ability to heal. Some scars you can’t see, but they are scars because the wound HEALED. I choose to wear mine well.
One night, scrolling FB, up popped an ad from Birch Blaze Studios in search of mature women for a photo project celebrating beauty in aging - women who have lived through some stuff. I was like, well, I sure qualify, and commented something like ‘totally out of my comfort zone, but I’ve been through the fire so I’m game.’ They contacted me, and I immediately felt regrets. What was I getting myself into? And yet, I gathered my courage and went, and I am so glad I did. Taylor and Kerry, this photo shoot was powerful, so symbolic of my spiritual 'seeing beautiful again.' Thank you."

Thank YOU, Amy!!
