this was a wild, wacky, + wonderful wedding that took place in downtown lowell ma in the autumn of 2019, pre covid-19 + wedding restrictions. it did not have a ton of those traditional wedding elements where i include a long list of all the amazing vendors that i worked with but it did have tons of personality. abby, being a designer really wanted to capture their personalities with a casual, vibrant event. their ceremony was short + sweet + left plenty of time for festive dancing + board game playing. this was my first time ever photographing a reception in a windowless black walled basement room in a mill building. it did not disappoint. but i am glad that we scheduled some time before the ceremony to get some natural gritty downtown lowell light.
2020 has been an unprecedent year for all of us. all of my booked weddings were put on hold, rescheduled for less contagious days. while I was still fortunate to be able to 2nd shoot weddings for 2 of my favorite local photographers, lisa of lisa frechette photography[thank you for letting me share some of your wedding images below] + mia of mia campopiano photography, I am absolutely longing to photograph my own weddings again [fingers crossed 2021].
thankfully my year was filled with personal art projects at thecollaborative02885 as well as so many lovely family portrait sessions. oh, you special lovely families, the most enjoyable time I have had masked has been photographing you! thank you thank you thank you!
I even did some pivoting [is this the most hated word of 2020?] with some real estate, restaurant + product photography in order to keep my creative brain working + to try + stay off unemployment.
a huge highlight from this year was the time I spent volunteering at moonrose farm through their csa work share program. while I only have my crappy phone photos [not shared here] from my time there, the memories + life lessons I learned there will never fade:
shop local. support your farmers. be kind. when in doubt get your hands dirty. you can actually eat hard work [that is if you are a farmer or gardener]. we are all connected. tomato hornworms are fascinating + gross.
so without anymore rambling here is my 2020 in pictures:
you’ve made it to the end! thank you for taking the time to look at these images + happy new year!
