Hey there!! Welcome to Alba Lumos Photography, my brain child. :) [for future reference, i DO NOT type with correct capital and lower case letters. i'm always just using lowercase and then upper when i'm EMPHASIZING, but i guess i was feeling fancy when i wrote this years ago] I'm April LaRoche, the owner & lead photographer in these parts. Just your friendly neighborhood barefoot photographer! [FOR REAL, please let me be barefoot, i need to livvveeee] Let me start off with saying I'm SO glad you're here! It absolutely tickles me that people enjoy my work & want me to be their photographer. This is my dream come true. I'm a New Hampshire based [MOSTLY WEDDING] photographer, but I travel all throughout new england! It's super fun finding new photo spots. I'd say my photography style would be something along the lines of "lifestyle photography". [That means that posing you in silly ways that seem forced / fake / awkward isn't really my jam.] I mean, unless that gets some snuggles & laughs. I'm ALLLL about that. I like to capture REAL life with REAL emotions and REAL smiles. Your session should be relaxed and fun. [All while I get some kick-ass photos!]  Trying to make sessions as easy breezy as possible is right up my alley. I will most likely make a giant fool of myself at your session, so you'll feel like a professional. I sing, trip, laugh, make noises, mention inappropriate things, show my nerdiness. AKA YOU'RE GOING TO DO JUST FINE.


  WANT TO KNOW EVEN MORE ABOUT ME?!                 READ ON MY FRIEND.

I am not only a photographer. I'm a messy, hilarious [i think so ;)], creative, lake lovin', compassionate self proclaimed NERD. I am a fantasy obsessed, mother, wife, animal lover, smoothie addict, goofball, artist, book lover, horrible singer, and if you let me, talk-your-ear-off kinda gal. I'm beyond blessed to be able to do what I love. Which wouldn't be possible without the unfailing support of my DASHING husband Jordan, & SUPER spunky daughter Marvel. These two are my rocks. [& also my puppy wranglers for sessions with poochkers] Jordan is utilized as my second shooter as well, perhaps you'll get the pleasure of meeting him! [hey! that's him on the right!]

There are many other things that tickle my fancy other than photography. [But let's be honest, photography has my heart] To name a few top faves though: pizza, laughter, playing video games [newworld aeternum with hubz, minecraft with marvel], wildflowers, dancing, task master [brooklyn 99, parks & rec. the office, you get the vibe], playful animals, bonfires, water, reading, uncontrollable smiles, walking, taco night [maybe I should just say food in general ;)] and people that laugh at my ridiculous humour. I'd love to chat with you about what you're looking for. You may be thinking "Hey April, where can I do that?" Right at the bottom of this page!
