It’s been over a year since my last wedding at Tailwater Lodge, but the wait was completely worth it. Steve + Sarah both grow up in Oswego, NY so I instantly connected with them. For those who don’t know I lived in Oswego for over 6 years so it’s my second home and will always be one of my favorite places to visit.
Read MoreLife has been pretty crazy lately for me, and with October…. aka. fall foliage approaching, it’s about to get even more hectic. For John + Lindsey’s wedding I got to experience quite the drive to get to a new view AND town, that I’ve never been to before.
Read MoreI still remember the day Sarah pointed out Sean from across the room. We were both working behind the counter at the Webster Ice Rink’s snack bar and Sean was helping out with skate rentals. It’s crazy thinking this happened over 10 years ago and now you are husband and wife!
Read MoreThe rest of this month is going to be packed full of weddings, engagement sessions and a couple more high school seniors. It makes me a little sad as I near the yearbook deadline because I just love working with my seniors. For Caroline’s senior session we got to visit two of my favorite locations… the Memorial Art Gallery + Webster Park!!!
Read MoreEvery once in awhile I get a wedding inquiry that stands out to me over the rest. Of course I always look at the date to see if I’m available, but I love reading the little stories some of my couples leave for me. Craig + Brieana first met on eHarmony and on their first date they found out that they were both planning the 40th anniversary for each of their parents. Come to find out on their second date that their parents were married on the same exact date... August 25th! Five years later and now they all share anniversaries with one another. How special is that?!!
Read MoreFor the longest time I've known the Billy's family and a couple of years ago I even photographed his older sister, Alyssa (one of my past senior model reps). With my crazy busy wedding season I didn't have any extra time to take on my senior model rep program, but I was lucky enough to fit in Billy's senior session.
Read MoreI've never been to the same venue one weekend after another before! Wolf Oak Acre is an amazing venue in Upstate New York, so I'm definitely not complaining I got to go back for Matt + Tiffany's wedding. The cool thing about this double header weekend was both my couples had SUNY Oswego alumni!
Read MoreThe one great thing about being the age I am is everyone is getting engaged and married!!! I love seeing all of my old friends from high school and college starting a new chapter in their lives and some are even booking their weddings with me!! I've known Taryn forever!!!
Read MoreIt's been a few months since I've been back to Webster Park this year and my goodness was it a great evening! The water was so calm and the sunset was soft and warm! Matt + Sarah also brought along the most picture ready girl I've ever met, Lillia!!!
Read MoreI can honestly say this year's wedding season has been more than I could ever imagine. I'm now up to 31 couples for 2018... CRAZY RIGHT?!! From the moment I met Kevin + Erin for their engagement session at Sonnenberg Gardens, I knew they were special duo.
Read MoreIt's that time of the year.... SENIOR PORTRAIT SEASON!!! I love the months of July to October for this very reason. I get to work with so many incredible young adults and majority of them come from my high school, Wayne Central! The first of the season for the Class of 2019 was this lovely lady, Madison.
Read MoreWhere do I begin with this wedding day.... Mitch + Anne's special day was a lot different than most. They rented this beautiful lake house for the whole week and did everything themselves. Anne's sister made her stunning cake and all of the food, Anne's friend did all the hair and makeup for the girls, the bridesmaids and other special guests put together their decorations. Everything was done by them and the ones that love them most... not to mention the most adorable ring bearer and flower girl!
Read MoreIt's been an absolutely crazy summer!!! Tons of weddings, on top of engagement sessions for my 2018 + 2019 couples... senior sessions for the Class of 2019 AND all that fun editing! Yuri + Iryna are getting married in less than a couple of weeks, but we had time to fit in their engagement session.
Read MoreWeddings are full of the unexpected. It might seem stressful to some people, but I live for the feeling of not knowing what's going to come from a wedding day. For Andy + Sara's wedding, I began at a gorgeous home right outside of Rochester. There I spent time photographing Sara's beautiful details and probably one of my favorite bridesmaid dresses in a long time... not to mention they had pockets!!!
Read MoreOne amazing thing about living in the Rochester area is being so close to the Finger Lakes!!! The weekend before this wedding I was photographing a wedding at Sonnenberg Gardens and was amazed by the beauty. We didn't get to explore down by Canandaigua Lake, but I knew the following weekend I'd be over that way.
