I'm a multi-tasking mom, a lover of chocolate and cashmere, and a curious student of human nature. I live in Cambridge with my husband and two boys (and too many fish to count). My education as a photographer, which is ongoing, has been as much about people as it has been about the craft of making pictures.
I've learned not only to look for the art that can be created from light and composition, but also for the magic that resides in the shy smile of a bashful toddler, or the exuberant energy of a dad at play with his son, or a mom snuggling her babies, no matter how big they've gotten. These are the photos your kids will look back on to remember this time, you are such an important part of those memories.

I found Emily while looking for a photographer to capture images of my infant son and family. Emily's style is simple and natural without a lot of posing and props that you often see with newborn photos. I wanted our baby to be the feature and not my husband and I and she was able to deliver that easily while also getting some lovely shots of us as a family. Her rates are reasonable and she does not require any purchasing commitments. More importantly, she is lovely to work with.

Emily has photographed our family twice now - once in Lexington at Minuteman Park and just a few weeks in our new hometown as well. Her photos are amazing. She captured every member of our family's personality and I couldn't be happier with the result. She is great with kids of all ages (and adults too). If you are looking for a photographer for family photos, I highly recommend her!

I hired Emily to do a family photo shoot with myself, my husband, and our 6 month old son. From the first email exchange, Emily was awesome. She made us feel very relaxed at the shoot and took the time to win over my son. Emily had never been to the location I chose for the shoot but she was able to quickly pick out some of the best spots. She has an amazing eye and the setting looks better in the photos than it did in reality. We are thrilled with how the photos turned out and are so happy to have these keepsakes of our little guy.

We first met Emily in 2012, when we selected her as our wedding photographer. On our wedding day, she was sweet, supportive, and unobtrusive. Her pictures were amazing and we receive compliments to this day about how great they turned out. Now that we have a baby, we asked her to take pictures since she now primarily photographs children. We set up a time to do the pictures but due to a miscommunication on our end (my wife sent an email changing the meeting time to me by mistake instead of Emily), Emily ended up traveling and waiting for us, and we didn't show up. She was so gracious and kind

Emily did a photo shoot of my sisters and I as a gift for my mom. I cannot begin to describe how great she was and how amazing the photos came out! At the shoot Emily was so relaxed and sweet it made it so easy to take pictures. She had such great ideas and knew exactly what she was doing when it came to poses and lighting. Emily was always easy to reach over email and answered all questions I had regarding the photos and buying prints. I would definitely use Emily in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for amazing photos without spending a fortune!

We were looking for someone that we could use for 1-2 hours on our special day, that wouldn't charge us a full day fee (anywhere from 3-6k). To be perfectly honest, I was getting a little frustrated, not being able to find someone that could fit our needs, budget, and honestly, personality preferences. The only other people I knew that did photography were booked up that weekend, so I was a bit down about the whole thing.
And then, I stumbled onto Emily. I found Emily through OffbeatBride.com where she had done a 1 hour shoot for a couple in Boston Common. That was basically identical to

Emily is an incredible photographer and a wonderful professional. From the day I first met her, I knew that she would be a joy to work with during the stressful months leading up to my wedding. She is very calm and was extremely helpful when it came to the planning of the big day. During the wedding, I never noticed she was there, which I think is the biggest compliment a bride can give a photographer.
We just received our photos and we are floored by what Emily produced. I can't wait to show my family and friends- Emily went above and beyond for us and I would recommend her to anyone looking

Emily is great, and we were very glad we chose to work with her. It's absolutely true that she takes superb photos (we've gotten tons of compliments on ours), but it's also true that she is a smart, friendly, relaxed person who's great to have around on your wedding day. And that, I realize in retrospect, counts for just as much.

PLEASE don't go by the first review - I have NO IDEA where that might have come from. Our entire experience with Emily has been the complete opposite - from the very start, she was incredible, and came through with flying colors. We LOVED her.
Emily was the first photographer we interviewed, and basically decided to hire her on the spot. She gave us an engagement session so we could get to know her, and that's where some of our favorite pictures of us came from. And on the day of the wedding, Emily was simply incredible. She showed up and did exactly what we'd asked her to. (She
