Giving Thanks | New England Food and Lifestyle Photographer – New Hampshire Friendsgiving

Incase you haven’t seen it already, we posted on T.e.l.l. that we had released our third issue thus far, and one of our bigger shoots was the ‘friendsgiving’ gathering Ashley and I styled and put together for our friends and some family to enjoy (and be awesome models!). We really wanted to create a warm and cozy setting with rustic touches for our guests to enjoy. Ashley did an amazing job with the place settings and the food was incredible! Be sure to check out our recipes and more of the story on the website!

There’s not much better than spending time with friends and family, enjoying heaping plates of food, and sipping on some sweet concoctions. Some of my favorite memories are those spent this way. Genuine connections and laughter, playing games, telling stories, and capturing moments. I have a lot to be thankful for this year. Not only have I begun this new adventure with a new friend, I’ve been able to meet all kinds of people, explore new places, and really see something that was once an idea start to grow. I am so lucky. I’m also so incredibly thankful for the continued support from friends and family who are always so willing to lend a hand when I need them. I’m thankful I have been able to really enjoy the seasons for what they bring, and that I have learned to appreciate the area I live in more fully than ever. I’m thankful I get to pursue my passions and appetite for adventure and exploration for a living (hopefully someday to be full time!)

The future is looking so bright! It’s been an incredible year.

I hope you all get to spend time with your loved ones this week and remember what the holidays are all about. It’s not how much you have in your bank account or all the things you own or what deals you’re getting on black friday. It’s about the love you surround yourself with and the love you give back. It’s about the little things. You know?

Thanks for listening, looking, and for your support!

What are you thankful for?
