We had such an amazing experience working with Lisa & her partner from start to finish! The pictures came back absolutely breathtaking, and captured our wedding day beautifully. I am so thankful for them both as they were able to capture so many special moments throughout the day. We had an engagement session completed by Lisa as well which was equally as phenomenal. The turn around time for receiving both the engagement session photos and wedding day photos was absolutely noteworthy. I am so grateful for our experience, and will cherish these photos for forever.

Stark Park Engagement Session | Manchester NH | New Hampshire Engagement Photographer

Engagment

As the leaves begin to change and the air turns crisp, there’s no better time for a picture-perfect fall engagement photo shoot. And what better place to capture the beauty of the season than Stark Park in Manchester, NH?

Nestled in the heart of the city, Stark Park was the perfect backdrop for Erin + Ryan’s engagement shoot. When Erin and I started planning her shoot, she asked if we could include her daughter in some of her photos. I immediately said YES! I loved the idea of bringing more love and laughter into the shoot with their spunky little girl!

In mid-October, the park’s lush greenery transformed into a vivid display of oranges, yellows, and reds as autumn took hold. The stunning foliage provided a gorgeous setting for their engagement photos. We didn’t have a lot of sunshine that day but as Erin + Ryan strolled through the park, holding hands and laughing, you could feel the love and happiness radiating from them.

In all, Stark Park in Manchester, NH, offers a breathtaking and romantic setting for a fall engagement photo shoot. With the stunning foliage, chilly weather, and the coziness of autumn attire, your photos will be the perfect representation of your love and the beauty of the season.

To maximize your engagement experience and ensure that every moment leading up to your wedding is beautifully documented, I am thrilled to include a complimentary engagement session with my wedding packages.

Hackleboro Orchard Senior Portrait Session
Canterbury NH | Nick

High school senior portraits are a special time in a young person’s life, and recently, I had the privilege of photographing Nick, a talented and spirited senior, at Hackleboro Orchard in Canterbury, NH. We met there an hour and a half before sunset, and it was the perfect setting for a memorable photoshoot. As I look back on our session, I can’t help but smile and reflect on the magic that the golden hour brought to Nick’s senior portraits.

Why the Golden Hour Shines for Photos

WARM, SOFT LIGHT:

The golden hour, which occurs shortly after sunrise and before sunset, gives everything a warm, soft, and flattering light. This gentle glow adds a touch of magic to portraits, creating a dreamy and ethereal atmosphere that’s perfect for capturing the essence of a young person about to embark on a new adventure.

RICH, VIBRANT COLORS:

During the golden hour, the sky often boasts stunning hues of orange, pink, and purple. These colors provide a captivating backdrop, enhancing the beauty of the subject and the surrounding environment.

REDUCED HARSH SHADOWS:

The angle of the sun during the golden hour minimizes harsh shadows and eliminates the need for artificial lighting. This results in a natural and balanced look that brings out the best in every shot.

Wishing Nick the Best On His Next Adventure

Nick, it was truly a pleasure to work with you during your senior portrait session. I admire your love of faith, country music and your musical talents, especially your skill with the guitar. The moments we shared as you strummed your guitar in your cowboy boots and hat were absolutely priceless.

As you take on your next adventure, I want to wish you the best of luck. May your journey be filled with creativity and inspiration.

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this special moment in your life. I have no doubt that you’ll achieve great things, and I can’t wait to see where your path leads you.
