Life In Tandem Photography

Life In Tandem Photography We are a photography duo capturing life and love in tandem because we believe that life is better to Pose, smile, snap. This is joy.

When I think about photography, I hear the click of the shutter and see a smile burst onto someone's lovely face in a moment of laughter. I feel an all-consuming happiness as I remember moment's captured and beauty defined in a single picture. Arranging a romantic scene in front of a setting sun speaks real-life love stories to me. Snapping a senior's moment in time between childhood and adulthood

makes a smile come to my face. A child's expression of wonder at a single petal on a sunflower fills my soul. If you would like to honor me with the opportunity to catch one of your moments, just shoot me a message or email. We'll talk prices, location, outfits, happiness captured, and all of the above.

// Today began with driving around town with this bosom friend; her wedding gown filling up the car, holding hands, smiling, and crying happy tears for all of the meaning, love, and beauty poured into this day. It ended with dancing under a banner of love with all of the people we love. And in between I got to button her into her wedding dress, pray over her, bawl my eyes out as she walked down the aisle, and a 100 other moments I will hold onto forever. It was an honor to stand with you today Naomi as you vowed to forever with your man. ✨

// This is really random but I’ve been a bit overwhelmed today and then I randomly started thinking about our baby moon we went on last March and it’s helping me feel calm and at peace. I love how memories and pictures can do that sometimes. I remember the amazing aunties who made it possible for us to go at all, going to our storybook destination of Boston and Cape Cod because of our love for Robert Mccloskey stories, biking 9 miles through Martha’s Vineyard [while pregnant!!], making my Gilmore Girls dreams come true being at Martha’s Vineyard period, seeing every lighthouse we could, laughing for days about the very unimpressive Plymouth Rock that was smaller than rocks we have in plenty in the desert, and really just all around super enjoying new memories with my best friend who I just feel so incredibly hugely lucky to do life with. He is just my biggest gift whether we’re freezing, starving, and happy on a dreamy island together or holding hands at the table while he cries with me and prays over my anxieties. ✨

// Last weekend kicked off wedding season and if I’m honest, I was pretty overwhelmed by jumping into a back-to-back fall work schedule with a 7 week old. But in the week before Demi + Wyatt’s wedding, my stress melted away and as I prepared to go back to work, I just felt so freaking excited about celebrating them! So yes, it’s a lot to have 4 kids under 5 AND work from home. And yes, I do get incredibly overwhelmed. But at the same time, I feel so happy to get to come alongside people like Demi + Wyatt, and cry when they cry, cheers when they cheer, and all around celebrate wonderful humans. ✨

// Sharing this because my “favorite photo of all time” changes daily these days and this is the most recent one. This guy started intentionally smiling at us and I’m not really sure if there is a better feeling in the world than being smiled at. ✨

// the past few weeks have held about a million and one moments that I treasure in my heart. I hardly have the words for them, as much as I have tried to come to this space and describe them. Which is why I will treasure for a lifetime all that captured of our family in these photos when Parker was exactly a week old. All the love and sweetness, the adoration and kindness that I have seen poured out between my kids, from my best friend and partner to me, from my babies to their mother, from my mother to her daughter, from my sister to her sister + niblings, from my dear friend to her friend, from our community to us. The kindness and love knows no end and I feel incredibly spoiled and grateful. And while I want to share every single photo from this time, this photo about sums it up with its tenderness + bond + connection that doesn’t require blood, but holds close for always. ✨

// With a heart full of complete joy, I introduce to you my son, Parker Josiah. He came in the middle of the night on August 11, we locked eyes, and it’s been endless cuddles and love since. We are completely addicted to him and so honored to be his parents. He is such a good, good thing. ☀️

// “Mommy, you’re my best pal and my best mommy”. 😭😭😭 The girl who started it all. My biggest surprise, my world flipped upside down, the one who showed up in the shape of a tiny little bean on an ultrasound, the one I didn’t feel ready for. This person made me a mom before I thought I could do it, and then gave me a ton of grace and kindness and joy as I learned, grew, and changed for the better. She opened my heart to motherhood because I fell in love with being HER mom. Really, she started this whole thing that has consumed so much of our lives - parenthood - and we could not have asked for a better teammate, advocate, and encourager as we navigated foster care, and now adoption and pregnancy and welcoming a new little life into our family. Really and truly, she’s the best big sister to her 3 younger siblings and it is inspiring to watch her thrive in loving, creating with, and teaching her siblings. And to say she cannot wait to meet her youngest brother is the understatement of the year. ✨

// Every experience with this man has me more deeply in love with him. Including, but not limited to, him holding up my 9 months pregnant body as I throw up in the middle of the night, him getting up yet again to grab my heartburn pills, him telling me glowingly how he shared sweet moments with our son as he wiggled in my belly while I was fast asleep, him reassuring me that I’ve got this as I maniacally stress laugh about my impending labor. I’m not just lucky, I knocked it out of the park with this one. ✨

// Preparing for labor and post-partum has made me think so much of the beginning of Jane’s life, the parts I don’t know and the parts I got to be there for. I have mourned that I couldn’t carry Jane in my womb, have provided the nutrients and care in-utero that would have helped her thrive when she came out. I have been struck heartsick, wondering how she was received and who was even there when she first entered the world. Was she even held in her first week of life? I have been grateful for the ginormous risk we took in loving her completely from the moment we met her. I remember receiving the one week old, 5 lb bundle into my arms, only hours after even hearing of her existence, and immediately having unconditional love and acceptance for her. I didn’t know if I would get her for a week or a year, but I held her as much as possible, woke up with her all through the night, and told her “I love you” as much as I possibly could because I had no idea if she would have people in her future to speak love over her. My heart would have permanently broken if she had been taken from us, but her need for a mom was far more important to me than the risk of my heart. Now, 9 months after adopting her and a few weeks before she becomes a big sister, I still look at her constantly and feel incredibly overwhelmed by the honor of calling her my daughter. ✨

// Still kind of surprised that summer wedding season is over and that I won’t be picking up the camera again until October. Tho I’m definitely not mad about swapping my Saturday load from camera bags to soft baby cuddles for a season. This wedding was a sweet one to end the season on and I am eternally grateful for my right hand man who carried all the bags, did a lot of the standing, and kept me hydrated as I multitasked on growing a human and capturing our couple’s wedding days in my third trimester.
