Meet Eva

Finally getting back on track and ready to roll for 2014. It's my pleasure to start this year off by introducing you to little Eva and her proud parents. Lynn and Rich are 2 of the nicest, sweetest people I know and I've had the privilege of photographing their wedding and their baby. Enjoy and Happy New Year.

The Other Side

Here's a fun little look behind the scenes from a few wedding/engagement sessions I photographed this year. And 1 of the best light test subjects around...my old man. Couldn't do it without you Dad. With 2013 coming to an end, looking back at photos from the year is bringing back so many little moments. It's funny how a photo can get you right back to that place that you seemed to have forgotten. Sometimes you just need a little reminder of where you have been. Thanks to my Dad, Robin Dini, Adam Coppola and Rob Booth for grabbing some of these images for me.
