Let TARA photograph your life!

If I were single and childless I would photograph births 24/7/365; I love them so much that I actually don’t advertise that I do them all the time because turning down a birth is so difficult for me! It is my very favorite life event to document, no contest. Why? First of all, because holding […]

There is much more to my connection to this family than they may even know…life is so complicated, yet so beautifully simple: what we need, what we feel, who we come into contact with and when. There is a higher purpose to it all which I may never fully understand or be able to make […]

I’m not sure where to start with this blog post – there’s just so much to say about this little family! Photographing Ella Rae is extra special for a lot of reasons, but at the heart of it is love – is my late father (who I called “dad”, my grandfather Norm Walker). The new […]

I have to pinch myself all the time – I literally get to spend my weeks photographing expecting mamas, births, newborns and families, then editing them in the quiet of my office! If you could see my face while I edit, smiling like an idiot at my monitor while I cull and edit all these […]

Nowadays 100% of my couples come to me organically, which is an incredible blessing (and the result of almost 20 years of hard work!). They come from venues at which I am a preferred vendor, through past brides and other clients, through friends and family, couples I meet at my amazing gym (Seacoast Kettlebell in […]

In the fall of 2017 this mama called me for a maternity session before she welcomed her second baby into the world – she was referred to me by one of my closest friends so I knew right off that I would love working with this family! We met in Newburyport on a gorgeous fall […]

If there were ever a wedding day that I have photographed in 18 years (hundreds of weddings) that has embodied all that is love, it was this wedding day. Even as I write this post, I feel overwhelmed by the need to fully and accurately portray the feeling of this day, but ultimately I will […]

I truly believe everything happens for a reason. Every person you meet comes into your life for a reason. You may not know why for years, or you may know right away. Some people we meet briefly and wonder if you’ll ever see them again. About 3 years ago, while my husband’s best friend from […]

As I get older I realize how life really does come full circle, that everything you do counts, that friendships last, that love is always beautiful (especially love between two people who are creating a little human life together!) – and that actually Facebook is kind of a gift. I went to high school with […]

Who is up for a great love story? You must be if you’re here reading this! My favorite part of meeting my couples is hearing their love stories: when they met, how they met, first impressions etc. Kaleigh and Jacob are high school sweethearts and got engaged last February 2017 on the decks at Martingale […]

you're in!
