Where there are boys, you’ll generally find a bit of rowdiness, an abundant supply of energy, playful spirits, and dirt. There always seems to be dirt!
These boys jump in puddles, climb trees and build forts. These boys dream big.
But where there are boys, you’ll also find big hearts. And these hearts, well, they fiercely love their mommas!
This set of brothers is no exception. So of course, we had to capture one photograph at the end that includes their beautiful mom.

For a late December day, Karen and Russell’s Breton Bay engagement session should have been cold and possibly even a little windy on the water. Instead, it was warm and sunny with temperatures in the 70s! Despite the unusual weather for this time of year, I still love the winter look and feel to these pictures. The genuine smiles and laughter are two more reasons I’m loving this session lately.
I can’t wait to see these two again for their gorgeous fall wedding in New York! As an added bonus, I’ll have the chance to work with Karen’s family again. I photographed her sister’s wedding a couple years ago, and it’s always an honor and so much fun to see past brides and families again!
Yesterday on the blog, I shared what planning your wedding looks like from a year up until 4 months from the big day. Today we’re talking about what happens after that through the wedding day.

These timeline suggestions have been pulled together from a variety of wedding sources, plus our own personal experience. Each wedding is different and will vary.
Planning a wedding can be a lot of work. There are so many vendors to coordinate, items to consider and decisions to make. To help make the process a little easier, I’ve come up with a timeline for planning your wedding. This list of items is broken down by month so you can tackle the tasks in smaller segments.
And because I don’t want to completely overwhelm anyone that is newly engaged, I’m breaking this planning timeline into two posts. Today’s post will cover from around a year up to four months before the wedding. And tomorrow I’ll share a list of to-dos from month four right up until the big day!
9-12 months
6-9 months
4-6 months

We’ve been a bit spoiled with some warmer temperatures for this time of year, but the cold weather that showed up today had me thinking about this beautiful family session on the water. It just has that winter vibe. I’m hoping for one good snowfall so these adorable girls can put their equally adorable hats and scarves to good use!
