The V Family {Great Island Common} | Maine and New Hampshire Family Photographer

I hope you are all ready for a good dose of cuteness and giggles on this Thursday, because I literally giggled the entire time I was editing today’s session. I have such a soft spot for this family, who I have been working with since Ryan and Valerie’s engagement photos TEN years ago, and today is another big celebration post because not only are we celebrating ten years of working together but eleven amazing sessions in those ten years. Over the past decade I have had the extreme honor of watching Ryan and Valerie go from a young couple to husband and wife. I have photographed their engagement, wedding, maternity and newborn sessions for both boys – Jack and Ben, and family sessions in between all the fun. We’ve had windy sessions (like SO WINDY), at-home sessions at two different homes, Boston, Maine, and Massachusetts sessions (and a Rhode Island wedding!), sick kiddo sessions, happy kiddo sessions, stinky fish (that’s an inside joke), big brother announcements, and so so much love and cuteness in between.

This year I have had the pleasure of seeing these guys three times – in early March for maternity photos, in April for little Ben’s newborn photos, and again earlier this month for their annual fall session at Great Island Common in New Castle, New Hampshire. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this family – how they are so full of good, light, and love, how seriously CUTE their boys are, how laid back and easy they are to work with, how much they truly love each other, and how much they mean to me as clients and friends. Thank you Ryan and Valerie for ten years of memories and for trusting me with all of these incredibly special and important moments in your life – it is my honor to capture your beautiful family year after year. ❤️ Here’s to ten more years of fun! ????
