• The D Family's Nantucket Beach Portrait.

I love September. Some might say it's too cold for the beach, but I think it's perfect. I don't go in the ocean anyway. ;) I photographed the D family's portrait session at South Shore Beach and on their swing set. Fun! 

Here's the whole gang.

The happy sisters.

Emily Big Eyes.

Sara Big Feet. Just kidding!

I've been photographing Emily and Sara for a few years now. I love seeing these kids grow up to look more and more like each other and like their parents. Genetics are awesome.

• Random :: The Science of Sleep.

If you're a vivid dreamer, if you like Michel Gondry, if you cried alongside Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, if you appreciate artistic cimematography and Gael García Bernal, you HAVE to see The Science of Sleep. Even if not, you HAVE to see it.

Just do it.

• Random Thoughts.

Autumn has begun. The humidity has dropped. The leaves are slowly changing. The beach-goers have packed up and gone home. 

Stores are closing until Spring. Kids are going back to school, away to college. The blackberries are done, the smell of Concord grapes is in the air. The wind has started.

It's really quiet. Dead quiet.

Elsewhere, people are prepping for the leaf peepers. Winter is around the corner. A grey time of year. Grey homes against grey skies.

A time to reminisce about cold, dry mornings. About looking out the window to a fresh blanket of snow against a blue bird sky. Snow on leaves. Snow on trees. Snow covering that pick-up truck. Stacking the firewood. Getting excited about another day on the mountain. Riding alone. Riding with friends. Riding with people you're afraid you'll never hear from again. Taking risks. Feeling good.

This winter, I'm going to get back out there. I'm going to get frostbite and a goggle tan. I'll probably re-break that tailbone for the forth time, and I'll love it. My little girl will look back on winters fondly. She'll look forward to them. She'll remember white on blue, not grey on grey.

Autumn is not the end of summer, but the beginning of winter. Winter is not a time to hibernate on an island, but a time for excitement and fun.

Ava and her "children". Excited for winter.

• Ashley + Kirk Brinton's Nantucket Wedding.

Ashley and Kirk were married during a quaint ceremony on top of a dune at Miacomet Beach on Saturday.

The weather couldn't have been nicer! No humidity, no bright sun, no wind. Awesome! Catherine Stover officiated. She also married my husband and I three years ago, tomorrow!

Ashley wore a beautiful layered dress and carried a blue hydrangea and white rose bouquet. Classic for a beach wedding on Nantucket.

Have a fantastic time in Italy!!

(I seem to be living vicariously through my couples' honeymoon travels, don't I?!)

• September Project.

My friend and brilliant photographer, Sinead, brought Tara Whitney's One Project a Month to my attention today. It's Ava's first day at preschool and I was pondering what to do with all this new found quiet time! 

My September Project is not super exciting but if I don't write it down, it'll never get done. This month, I'm planning on joining Krav Maga and beautifying my office space. 

There. I said it. Now it's out in the universe and I have to do it!

It's official, she's a big girl.

• Beckie + Drew Stoddard's Nantucket Wedding, cont...

Beckie and Drew were married at The Summer House in 'Sconset on September 6th.

We were all anticipating the tropical storm, or at least some crazy downpours and wind, but we were donned with blue skies instead! It truly was a perfect wedding, and obviously a photographer's delight.

Venue and Caterer: The Summer House

Bridal Gown: Priscilla of Boston

Shoes: Jimmy Choo

Flowers: Flowers on Chestnut

Cake: Bartlett's Farm

Band: Mark Mahar

Shuttles: Cranberry Transportation

Tents: Sperry Tents

This one goes on my list of favorite getting ready images, ever.

The house the girls got ready in was called The Blue Crab.

Drew's father broke the ice before the ceremony with "There once was a man from Nantucket..."!

The view from the reception. Gorgeous.

The gents' jackets were red lined. Yum!

I found these lonely puppies hanging out all by themselves. So, I had to give them some love. "Lacroix, sweetie, Lacroix!"

Pink roses and navy linens. Classic.

These are from Beckie's own line of bags, Bunny & Chad.

Hurricane? I don't think so.

Beckie and Drew, fabulous wedding. Have some Pastis and croissants in France for me!
