Ryan & Rebecca – Engaged! | Buffalo Engagement Photography

Ryan and Rebecca had the distinction of being my 5th engagement session in less than 4 weeks! I *loved* the green sweater + pink dress combo, loved that they looked fabulous with my newly purchased silver ampersand, and loved that they were up for ending the session with ice cream cones! This was my first time using the grain elevators and the Buffalo and Erie County Naval & Military Park as a backdrop. They were both great! Thanks for choosing a sweet location, guys!










When we got back to our cars, I had them walk over in front of the grain elevators for one last, dusky shot. Great job guys. Now you can no longer say, “We don’t have any good pictures of us together!”

After meeting up with Thom & Melissa in January to get some “Save the Date” shots, we finished the session last night in Rochester, with visits to the Lilac Festival and Schoen Place in Pittsford. Thanks for sending me home with a chai latte for the road!! I’m so looking forward to your wedding in September!

The Rera Family – Spring Edition!

I’ve been photographing Dan & Sarah since their wedding way back in 2006 – I’m thrilled when people keep coming to me again and again. Dan & Sarah are such a sweet couple, and I appreciate both their repeat business and the enthusiasm with which they spread the word about me! Thanks, you guys!

This morning we met up for a pre-Mother’s Day session at the Japanese Gardens in Delaware Park, and they brought Sarah’s mom & brother Russ along too. So nice to see close-knit families!

Sam & Chelsea – May 5, 2012 | Rochester NY Wedding Photography

Driving to Rochester on Saturday, I was excited about the kickoff for my 2012 wedding season. I was excited for Sam & Chelsea’s wedding because a) they seemed like such a sweet couple when I originally met with them, b) it was a beautiful day, and c) I had never photographed a wedding at the Woodcliff Hotel & Spa before, and it’s nice working at a new venue.

The day was pretty much perfect. I think the pictures say it all!



















It was such a wonderful day. I can’t thank both families enough for being so friendly, warm & welcoming. I totally cried during each father’s toast to the couple, and left with nothing but the highest hopes for Sam & Chelsea’s future. I hope that your flip video captures all of the words that escape my pictures, and that in 50 years you can look back on this day with all the happiness in the world.
