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 [...]

:the newlywed shoot:

Sometimes it doesn’t work out to take engagement photos before the wedding and you end up doing them after – in that case I’ve deemed them a newlywed shoot and they are delightful! I’m not sure if it was the combination of Sarah+Matt’s experience from the wedding, the gorgeous blue wall we found, or in [...]

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 [...]

Canada > New York > Virginia

If you’ve been having a hard time keeping track of where I am and what I’m up to, I thought I’d give a little run down to keep you in the loop. For the week I’m back in New York for a week full of photography after a wedding and then vacation time in Canada. [...]

round two: post wedding “engagement” session

My good friends Amy + Jeff  wanted to do a photo shoot to get some recent photos – and most importantly make up for the lack of kissing pictures from their wedding. Can you believe that? no pictures of them kissing? I’m sure you know I would not let that get by. Actually now that [...]

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 [...]

Harrisonburg, VA

So I’ve been away from blogging for a while, but it’s for good reason. My exciting big news is that Matt and I are moving to Harrisonburg VA. We’re relocating for Matt’s job, and we are both excited for the new opportunities and sad to leave NY behind. So what does that mean for me? [...]

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 [...]
