At least a year ago I was taking to a friend of mine, he had been with his girlfriend for quite sometime, so as a wedding photographer I asked, when are you two going to make it official? Selfishly I just wanted to photograph them, they're a gorgeous couple, and super sweet as well. He let me know [...]

There's a new surge in 'elopements'. You see gorgeous photographs in epic locations. People on the edge of cliffs, in sand dunes, or snowy mountains. They're amazing, and create gorgeous imagery.

Amanda and Todd are amazingly fun, love to host parties for their closest family and friends, and could not imagine having a bi[...]

Engagement Sessions in Rochester, New York
Engagement sessions, I love them! I love when my clients are able to take a bit of time out of a busy year planning their wedding and just enjoy each other for an hour or two. I love when they make it truly unique to who they are as a couple. I love gett[...]

- My fiance' Dave, and I decided well before he proposed that we would absolutely be getting married in the mountains in Colorado. I mean, who wouldn't want to get married there! It's so stunningly gorgeous! We both love the mountains. The colors, the air, just the feeling of being surrounded by such [...]
