Spencer & Crystal: Sweet Vintage Love

It had been raining for about 5 days prior to Crystal & Spencer’s wedding day, so it had to be sunny, right?  Right!  The sky cleared for May 5th, 2012 and allowed for the beautiful outdoor ceremony they have hoped for at their home in the Jackson, New Hampshire area.  The view was spectacular, and their home has the most incredible birch tree forest!  They hung twinkle lights from the tree’s and Dutch Bloemen Winkel had beautiful flowers sprinkled all over the property, and Crystal’s bouquet was incredible!  So many little details were thought about, and everything just glowed.  Crystal’s dress was an authentic vintage find and she made her hair piece!  She is a hair and makeup artist, so she took care of those details herself.  Additionally, Spencer designed her wedding band, which Crystal never saw until they exchanged their vows, and it was stunning.  One of the most precious moments was when Crystal’s little niece Gemma broke into tears seconds before it was time for her to walk down the aisle.  Crystal scooped her up with her arms, and just filled her with loved and asked if she wanted to walk down with her.  A couple moments later though Gemma was able to do it all on her own!  So sweet!  They cleared out their open concept home to host the reception and dinner, so unique!  To top off the evening they sung a first song together (instead of a first dance) and lovely toasts were made by friends and family.  Congratulations Crystal & Spencer!  Such a special day for a very special couple!

North Conway Family Portrait: DeValle Family

Last September Jessica called me up and asked if we could do a maternity session.  I was thrilled.  When we met right away I noticed she was petite, but her baby belly was amazing!  I feel like the smaller the woman, the bigger the baby belly seems, as the only direction it can go at some point is out!   Ok, see what I mean below?

Now, 5 months later, JohnJohn, her third little one was born, and we had the whole DeValle family together with husband Joe, daughter Molly, and the man in the middle is Joseph.  We had a great time at Whitaker, and then in some fields just down the road right when the sun was setting.  Bella!  Below are some of my favorites.
