Matt + Lisa’s engagement

Matt and Lisa went through a lot to make it to the bridal + engagement sessions we planned. After a piece of Lisa’s wedding day apparel was left behind it seemed like everything might fall apart. I think we made the right decision when we went ahead as planned, and even though the police, the [...]

Brendan + Stephanie’s engagement

Before this lovely couple tied the knot about a week and a half ago, we managed to meet up in June in the Rochester area for their engagement photos. I say managed because it was quite the rendezvous. They have an amazing ability to travel and so they hopped up to New York (I was [...]

{Nita & Matt} engagement

Nita and Matt returned to their alma matter in Alfred, NY for their engagement shoot. It was a short trip for me to meet them there, even though I took the craziest route of back roads I didn’t know and at one point was driving on a one lane dirt road through a fairly wooded [...]

showing off the rock: Mike + Kaity

:] do you love my bad jokes? I can’t believe I haven’t blogged these photos yet… I suppose it’s because of the moving situation, but I absolutely loved shooting Mike + Kaity’s engagement photos at Rock City Park just outside of Olean, NY. Not only was it a fabulous location – you can’t really tell [...]

Stef+Nate

Stef loves to wear long dresses, Nate is usually in a band tshirt – if that doesn’t give you a taste of their fun personalities then hopefully these photos do. We headed over to Angelica to take some pseudo urban + wide open spaces engagement pics. Can you believe it’s almost June already? They’re getting [...]

KIM + VINCE’s engagement

I had the pleasure of taking another trip out to letchworth recently, this time to shoot Kim and Vince’s engagement photos as a precursor to their July wedding… which I know will be fabulous. It’s always tricky to find a time for esessions with long distance relationships– and of course when you finally do see [...]

Dan and Grace: Letchworth Engagement

It was a beautiful day (as you can see) but it came perfectly before some cold weather, and as you know in New York even spring has it’s suprises. I met with Dan and Grace for their engagement photos at nearby Letchworth State Park where we set out to capture natural emotion and have some [...]

sunny/cloudy/sunny/rainy/snowy

I’m not sure if I can take this weather rollercoaster. I was so happy that thursday had good weather in the cards; it meant that Dan + Grace had a fabulous engagement session over at Letchworth. Now, if you can believe it, it’s snowing and I’m off to a wedding! I’m sure we’ll just do [...]

Rochester NY : Josh + Lizz

It’s always fun to go to downtown in Rochester, NY – and that’s not just because I live in the country! I was in Rochester recently with Josh and Lizz, who will be married this May, for a chance to have some fun and document their engagement. Lizz suggested we start with some ice skating, [...]

:: engagement season ::

I think we’re all looking forward to some warmer weather, but as well all know just because it’s March it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s spring. In spite of that, with spring coming soon there are lots of engagements… or at least engagement sessions! I’ll be busy in the next few months doing creative shoots with [...]
