BOSTON CHILDREN'S PHOTOGRAPHER, BOSTON FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER, BOSTON NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

Extraordinarily and incredibly grateful.

For my husband, my kids, my family and friends.

But today I am completely and totally indebted to Western Digital, specifically my friend Constance.

Last summer I came home from vacation with a blown hard drive on my brand new MacBook Pro.  I thought to myself “luckily I didn’t keep much on that drive.”  All my client work is backed up on portable drives, DVDs and my Drobo unit.  All my family stuff is backed up on external drives, with the exception of the last 6 months running, which is on my desktop.  Apple recovered my laptop harddrive picture folder and I promptly moved it over to my desktop.

Flash forward two weeks.  Come home from vacation and think “hmm, we must have lost power, my Mac is totally off.”  Quickly learned that totally off actually meant totally dead.  On the bright side, it was covered under warranty.  On the dark side, my hard drive was dead.  Six months of every day images filed under “Daily Life” were GONE.  Along with invoices, bank statements, quicken files, and other mundane details.

Long story short, with a few strange turns, my friend Constance at Western Digital was able to recover my drive in it’s entirety and I received it back this weekend.  I have full res files back of some of my most favorite days with my kids and family.  I spent last night sifting through them, and backing them up, and ordering more Drobo drives, and backing up more…

Needless to say, today I am beyond happy and at total peace that our family history as I like to tell it, is back in tact, and safe.  You know the moral of this story.  Here are a few favs… not for any technical merit or review, but just because (as Christofer would say) “they make my heart super happy.”
