What do you do when it’s rainy, almost dark, and freezing for a You + Me session? Well A) you find a unique indoor location and B) you MAKE THE MOST OF IT! I love how fearless Stephanie and Brian are! Yes we did some extremely fun safe shots at the warm New England Aquarium, but we also played outside in the dreary weather and got some super romantic shots! With winter comes an early evening, so we also broke out the flash and found some creative lighting. Surprisingly, I had a lot fun driving around Boston! I barely got lost and managed to survive rush hour without yelling at too many people through my window! All in all this You + Me session was a blast, and to top it off Stephanie and Brian are looking like their going to get my “first” award for first wedding of the 2013 season! There’s still a chance someone will book before then here in NC but it’s a slim one. Anywho, enjoy this cozy and fun You + Me adventure in Boston!

This time of year my outdoor shoots tend to slow down significantly. No one really wants to stay out in the cold for a photo shoot. Yet, on occassion I get some brave souls who want to venture out! So I charge my batteries up, pray my fingers don’t fall off, and head out into the frigid tundra that is the north east! More to come from these delightful and snuggily winter You + Me sessions! 🙂

Even though I was only in Cape Cod for a short time, it was extremely relaxing. Besides traveling to Boston for 1/2 a day, we spent our time lounging around the beach and our cottages. I even took a nap…it was glorious! We got up bright an early my last morning there to do a short beach session. My nephew is extremely active so getting the shots we did was pretty awesome! He managed to at least look at me for most of them! Right before I left, Lindsey, my sister-in-law shot a few of Ethan, Nate, & I.

I am so glad that I took the time out of my crazy schedule to go down. My soul really needed it. Thanks guys!

A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to sneak away for a mini vacation with my brother, Nate, and his family. I didn’t take a ton of pictures while I was there, but I couldn’t NOT take my camera when we went to Ethan’s first baseball game. Especially since it was at Fenway Park with the Red Sox! The game wasn’t that spectacular and it was ridiculously hot…swamp butt was abundant…eeeeewwwwwww

But my nephew, Ethan, was ridiculously cute and did really well despite everything. Here are a few shots from our time there. Stay tuned tomorrow for the family beach session I did of them! 🙂
