seriously

Today I working on some off camera flash – and being my most available subject I took some self portraits. Honestly I don’t know why I’m so serious, I guess I’m not used to being in front of the camera much… or it could be that tricky self timer – you never can be ready. [...]

Jake + Rachel’s wedding

Beautiful days can set the tone for a gorgeous wedding and it certainly did for Rachel and Jake’s early summer celebration. They chose to have everything outside and prayed for sun which came as scheduled. For those of you who are familiar with Houghton, you probably know about the tree in the field of dreams. [...]

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. [...]

KIM + VINCE’s 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 [...]

Julie + Eric

I had such an adventure with Julie and Eric during their engagement shoot over the holidays. I was in Michigan and met them on Belle Isle, a interesting and somewhat mysterious island outside of Detroit. I’m going to start out backwards, because I love the image about and have to tell the story about [...]
