Wedding Photography Blog

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…

I wanted to hold off on this post because I thought it would be fun to have the engagement shoot up just before the wedding... Amu and Joe are getting married this coming weekend, right before Christmas, and I can't wait. I've had a great time corresponding with Amu, and was so delighted when she…

I'm really excited about my next two posts for a couple of reasons: the first is that I had so much fun shooting these engagements, and the second is that I shot these earlier in the fall and they're proving very helpful in my complete denial of winter. :) Danielle and Trevor will be married…

Catching up a bit here... this is a session with little Jack at 4 months (I think he's like 8 months now...oops!) He is such a handsome little guy, and is totally used to being a model now. I was at his house just a few weeks ago, and as soon as I walked in…

Okay, final post from the Revolution workshop... we did some cool stuff on day two: China Town, DUMBO and a nighttime rooftop shoot! Loved it. Shooting on the bridge was so funny... we caused a bit of a scene. We had a good-sized crew to start with, and other people kept stopping to watch, and…

Here are the rest of the images from day one of the Revolution workshop! Next up is day two, some super handsome pictures of baby Jack (blog superstar!) then a couple of really sweet engagements... I'm just trying to do it all in order! A couple from Times Square... that was such a circus! It…

Here are a few more images from the Revolution NYC workshop I went to last month. I'll be posting a few from each shoot over the next week or so. :)

Judi and Erik were married at St. Paul's church and had their reception aboard the Harbor Belle... this was my first water-bound reception! I was a little more worried than I usually am about falling over and breaking all my equipment :) but everything was just perfect. We also had a bit of time to…

Another beautiful weekend, another beautiful wedding! Saturday started out a bit dreary but by the time the ceremony rolled around it was crisp and pretty clear... which is why I love October in New York! It didn't hurt that the day before I'd made the drive up from NYC, and the foliage was absolutely breathtaking.…

I just got back from an amazing trip to NYC this week.. went to the Revolution workshop, shot a few thousand pictures, walked a few hundred blocks (I might be exaggerating on this one), met some great people and had a blast. I was hoping to make a few posts from there, but the shooting…

I had the honor of shooting Dierdre and Mike's wedding this past weekend in Watertown. It was an unusually hot and humid October day, and Mike was the closest to passing out that I've ever seen anyone... it was a combo of nerves and heat, but it was so cute to see Dierdre reaching up…

Sarah and Chris were married at Belhurst Castle on Sunday. They are such a cool pair- I love my couples! Chris wrote their Buddhist ceremony, and the guys all wore 100% hemp outfits (hemp is one of the most versatile, abundant and strong fibers around!) Their families, from Massachusetts and New Jersey, came together in…

Tara and Jamie were surrounded by close friends and family as they exchanged vows under the grape arbor on Saturday at Hunt Country. I absolutely loved the setting and tone of the ceremony... the last rays of a beautiful sunset filtered through the grape vines as everyone laughed and cried through the ceremony. All of…

Paula and Eric were married at the beautiful Shadow Lake Golf Club on Sunday. The ceremony was held right on the edge of the water on a small rock pier, and the day was just gorgeous- blue sky, puffy clouds, my favorite! Paula and Eric live in New Jersey, and brought a bunch of friends…

I've been so lucky this season to have such relaxed, fun brides! This weekend was no different, as the lovely Kate agreed to climb down a steep iron staircase and make her way through the moss-covered "Fat Man's Squeeze" at Rock City Park for some pictures. I think Ryan was more worried about the potential…

Jenariel and Wesley were married in an intimate ceremony at a home on Canandaigua Lake on Saturday afternoon. Jenariel told me that she met Wes through her horse, Penny, which is so cool- she's got the pony and Prince Charming! I was happy to learn that Jenariel is a vegan (I'm a vegetarian, for anyone…

I was asked to speak to kids at the Cobblestone School's Summer Camp as a part of their "Unique Possibilities" program, which exposes children to fun and unusual careers. Even though I'm a public-speaking-o-phobe, I agreed, because I love the idea of the program. I brought in some of my work (animal pictures were a…

I had the pleasure of photographing Kim and Shawn's wedding this weekend at the Skyline Lodge, which has the most beautiful view! We lucked out with the weather... the grey skies threatened for most of the day, but thankfully it didn't start raining until I was on my way home. Kim and Shawn are such…

Anybody who knows me is quite aware of the fact that I love animals... from making a beeline to pet any dog I see on the street, to sponsoring a retired racehorse at the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation, I love them all (except spiders)! Recently, I've been doing a little volunteer work, photographing adoptable animals for…

With the official completion of my website, I'll be posting on the blog much more frequently! Here are some pictures from a session with adorable one-month-old Jack, he was so fun to work with... who can resist that smile and that great hair!? Thanks to Jonathan and Nicole for providing such a talented model! :)…
