Meet Mariel

This blog is a small representation of my most current sessions, my clients love stories and all the adventures I am privilaged to go on! Ways to my heart include coffee, feeding me before I am "hangry" and anything shabby chic/rustic. My vintage camera collection grows everday and I am usually smiling and quoting random movies. Most importantly Mariel O. Photo celebrates love in all forms regardless of race, religion, or sexual orientation & gender identity.

Henry Park in Vernon was the perfect choice for this shoot because what it means to the couple. I always encourage picking a place that means something to your relationship.

Backyards make the best venues! This wedding wouldn't have been made possible without the love and support of family and friends. All the details came together perfectly from the polaroid snapshots to the delicious clambake and lobster for dinner!

We're PREGNANT! This journey has been so very long and we are thrilled to announce this news. It comes after years of ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages and one failed IVF round in the fall of 2020. Of course nothing worth having comes easy and so far as been the most special experience of my life. I just can't wait until she comes and I can hold her in my arms. I will just literally lose my mind with excitement!

The weather had threats of thunderstorms right during portrait time but on my drive up to Union Station in Northampton, Massachusetts it stormed for 5 minutes at the boarder and cleared right up. The sun came full force and brought the humidity too!

This month was spent basking in beginnings. Spring is definitely in the air if you couldn't tell by the header image. We had some great weather and the blossoms really popped mid-month!

All my collections comes with a second photographer. There what is know as a "second shooter" in the industry, but I prefer to use the term associate!
