Happy Day-After-Election-Day everybody!  Are you as glad that it's over as I am?  Although I didn't vote for Barack (I usually vote Libertarian or write in... I'm contrary like that, ha ha) I am excited to have such an eloquent and dignified leader.  We're all in this together, let's just be nice to each other…

What a trip!  My cousin Kristy has been a great supporter of my work, and when it came time for her to get married I knew I'd be the lucky one photographing it. Kristy and Tony are so much fun, and I was so excited to watch the event develop- they considered having it here…

Here's one quick shot from Kristy and Tony's Vegas wedding... hot!  More coming very soon... I had a blast :)

Well, the air... tomorrow morning, at a time of day completely unfamiliar to me (6:15) I'll be on my way to my first Vegas wedding!  I can't wait, it's going to be a blast!  I probably won't be checking my email much, so I'll respond when I'm back on Tuesday... thanks for your patience! :D

What a fantastic way to end my season (in New York)... I was so excited to work with Kelly and Simon, we've been in touch for about a year, and they are such a cool couple -and blog-stalkers :D- that I've been looking forward to this for a while. I knew it was going to…

Another fabulous wedding!  I was excited to head down to meet Michelle in Watkins Glen... we hadn't met before, but she was so sweet in her emails and on the phone, I was really looking forward to it.  Here's the lovely bride getting her makeup done at the salon... Then we headed over to the…

I met Danielle and Trevor last fall, we headed to Ithaca for an engagement shoot and I had so much fun with them.  We shot around town and went around the Cornell campus a bit as well, then they treated me to a tasty lunch before I headed back home! I'd been looking forward to their…

If I have one word to describe Andra and Joe's wedding, it is definitely FUN!  I met up with the girls at a salon down the street from my house, Artistic Designs, on Park Ave, and they were already in full-swing... there's nothing like hanging out with the girls on the morning of a wedding,…

I've been lucky to have really amazing clients since starting my business.  I love to get great feedback when they get their final images, and I thought I'd share a recent one cause it was just so cute and sweet... love it! Oh my god Megan, these are beautiful!! I could not have asked for…

Ah, back to work after a few weeks off, and what a way to start!  Rachel and Olivier (or, Doctor and Doctor... seriously, I think almost everyone in the wedding party is, or will soon be, a doctor... infact, I think I accidentally became a doctor just from hanging out with them all day.  Good…

Whew, it's been a crazy couple of weeks here!  My sister Maureen got married on Saturday the 19th, and I had just about forgotten what it was like to be on the other side of a wedding! :) It was my first time as Maid of Honor, and it's quite a job, but worth every…

I'm always a little extra excited for a wedding where I've done an engagement shoot with the couple.  It's always a fun time to get to know eachother and get used to being photographed- we learned at their engagement that Mark has a special talent for posing! Their wedding was just beautiful, the ceremony was…

Tiffany and Victor got hitched at Deerfield Country Club in Brockport this weekend.  The ceremony was planned for outdoors, but they decided to play it safe and have it indoors after the hysteria-inducing weather forecasts (gale force winds! torrential rain! hail! four horsemen!  Well, maybe not the last one.)  The weather turned out to be…

Hello Firefox users!  I just recently switched from Safari to Firefox and love everything about it... except the color.  Which, of course, to me is very important!  The color was dull, muddy and kinda greenish, but someone just posted this awesome color profile switch on my favorite photography forum, and it takes about two seconds…

I had the pleasure of photographing Corinne and Matt's wedding in Skaneateles this weekend. It was a great celebration full of friends, family and cool details. I feel like a broken record, but the weather was again grey and rainy early in the day but it cleared up nicely after the ceremony, which was extra…

This weekend I traveled to New Hartford, NY to photograph Michelle and Rob's wedding. Once again we had clouds and rain, but it cleared up in time for the ceremony and pictures at Yahnundasis Golf Club. It actually rained for about 30 seconds on the five minute drive from the church to the club! I've…

Thank you to all of the brave men and women. The Final Salute I had the honor of meeting photographer Todd Heisler and seeing him present this story a few years ago. It is something you will never forget.

Sharon and Todd (or Uncle Tood, as some of the cousins call him!) tied the knot at the beautiful Bristol Harbour on Canandaigua Lake Saturday. I've had such a blast exchanging emails with Sharon over the past few months... she has kept up with my blog and sends me cute emails about various posts along…

Yesterday I headed down to Ithaca with my Arizonian cousin Kelly... it was an absolutely gorgeous cool spring day and we did some hiking and checked out some waterfalls. We went to Enfield Glen, Buttermilk Falls (there are some pictures of Buttermilk from Danielle and Trevor's engagement shoot!) Ithaca Falls and Taughannock Falls. I love…

Finally getting around to posting a few pictures from my trip to Philly/NYC... on day one, we took Matt and Kerri's Saab convertible (I named it Saabtimus Prime because when the top goes up and down it's just like a transformer...) to the train station and headed into the city to go the the American…

Go out an enjoy some nature! And, for anyone who is interested, NOVA is having a special tonight called "The Car of the Future" and it's hosted by two of my favorite guys... Tom and Ray from Car Talk! Tonight at 8pm on PBS. Enjoy! :)

I'll be downstate visiting my brother and sister-in-law this week, so apologies if I'm slow to reply to emails and phone calls. I'm looking forward to a little mini-vacation before the season kicks into high gear next month! In the mean time, here's another shot from Cristyn and Mark's engagement. I like this shot, but…

I met up with Cristyn and Mark, who are getting married on July 5th, to do a quick engagement shoot at Mendon Ponds. We had some great "golden hour" light, and had plenty of 4 legged company watching us shoot... a few dozen deer and one squirrel that I am pretty sure was trying to…

I had the honor this weekend of kicking off my 2008 season with Stacy and Andrew and their friends and family for a killer Rochester wedding! We ended up with a beautiful, sunny and sliiiiightly crisp Saturday, much to everyone's relief... The wedding was at Chapel Hill, which is so beautiful inside. The ceremony was…

Do you guys remember the magazine Highlights from when you were kids? I looooved the "Hidden Pictures" pages, where you had to find... uh, well, hidden pictures in a drawing. Well, I found this shot on my friend Frank DiMeo's blog from the Revolution Workshop and had to post it here. I count at least…

Whoa, bad blogger! BAD! I've been working on albums the past few weeks, and I forgot how much fun (and time-consuming) it is! I'll be posting more in the coming month or so when my season begins, but for now I'm going to go back to October. I was in NYC for the Revolution Workshop…

I was recently assigned to photograph the opening of a new exhibit at the Rochester Museum and Science Center. I was excited about it because I love natural history museums... those were always my favorite field trips when I was little. The new exhibit is called "Expedition Earth: An Ever Changing Planet" and one of…

Ooops, it's been a while since I've posted! I have been keeping really busy working on weddings, meeting with clients and freelancing. I want to show you guys what I've been listening to while working lately... Rodrigo y Gabriela is easily the album of the year (okay, so it was released in 2006, but I…

Okay, I'm a little late... First, I'd like to thank all my wonderful 2007 couples, I had a great time working with everyone and will be setting up a 'raves' page with some of the great feedback I've received from you! My 2008 season begins March, so I'll be posting some personal stuff over the…

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! A few days before Christmas, Amu and Joe were married at the Lodge at Woodcliffe in Fairport, NY. The day started out a little tough, Joe's mom had to go to the hospital and wasn't able to make it to the wedding, but hopefully these pictures will give…
