A Lake George Summer Engagement Session Those clients that know they want me to photograph their special day from day 1. The ones that can’t imagine anyone else capturing their special day.

A Glowy Summer Golf Course Wedding This is me, trying to catch up on the seemingly impossible task of catching my blog up on all of the amazing sessions and weddings I’ve had the honor of photographing over the past 3 years. The truth is, my business took off and blogging fell to the wayside. […]

When I decided I wanted to become a wedding photographer, I knew I needed all the practice and experience I could get. I wanted to capture one of the most special days of a couples life together, and let’s be honest, without a little practice there’s not many people who would trust you with such […]

In this day and age, it’s so easy to just take a picture and then forget about it as it gets pushed back into the archives of your digital photo album on your phone or computer. I get it. I’m a photographer and I’m just as guilty of this! BUT, I will give myself credit […]

I got the idea to write this blog post when I was listening to a Facebook live in one of my photography groups. One of the questions was “Aside from photography, what would you spend money on if you were planning your own wedding again?” I thought to myself, “Wow, why have I not blogged […]
