Featured : Grey Likes Baby

Earlier this summer I paired up with Ashley & Erin to help create a simple and beautiful maternity shoot for the sweetest couple expecting their first child down in Coastal New Bedford.   The shoot was featured over on Grey Likes Baby last month, so excited to share these images! See the full feature here.

A Hint of Spring

It feels like it has been snowing for eons here. Our little town has been buried in ice and snow and ocean waves for the past few weeks, and its snowing again today. Plus a dash of sleet and freezing rain for good measure. Despite the grumbles I actually do love winter, and there is something magic about a snow day.  The blooms that are coming in this time of year at the market are so hopeful. Cheery little daffodils,  quince branches, hellebore, and tulips all start to show up reminding us that there ARE other seasons besides winter.  I created this arrangement for delivery this past weekend - a masculine spring time arrangement that we know is brightening up someone's snowy week.

Autumn's End

New England doesn't mess around when it comes to the weather. Technically it's still Autumn but we've had just enough biting cold winds sweep through to remind us Winter is just around the corner.  Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for the Holidays. I love cozy sweaters, warm socks, and cuddling by a fire is just the best. But the flowers! I hate having to say good by the garden, and to all of the loveliness we're blessed with through locally grown New England blooms.  I especially miss the dahlias when that first hard frost comes.

......

I grew my own dahlias from tubers for the first time this season, and am still figuring out to store and separate the ones we dug out.   It's such a process because the tubers multiply throughout the growing season! It's actually really weird, the gift that keeps on giving. Wedding season has slowed for the year and we're getting back to the basics. Because this business can't run it's self. It's funny how at some point even the boring tasks like filing and accounting can be really satisfying.  It's all cyclical like that.
